Elevated above Anchorage Vineyard, this three-bedroom Lower Moutere lifestyle property offers a quieter pace of life, with views towards Mt Arthur and native birdlife among established trees. One of five elevated sites, the 128m² home sits on 5,637m² of land, thoughtfully designed by eco architect Stephan Meijer to embrace sustainable living and year-round comfort.
Natural materials give the interiors a warm, grounded character. Timber-lined ceilings, naturally oiled concrete floors and solid macrocarpa kitchen benches create an inviting setting, while double glazing and a Pyroclassic low-emission fire with heat transfer help maintain comfort through the seasons. The open-plan kitchen, dining & lounge connect effortlessly, with a central island encouraging conversation and easy entertaining.
The home offers three well-appointed bedrooms, all with direct outdoor access, creating a wonderful connection to the surrounding environment. The main bedroom features an ensuite and robe, while the second and third bedrooms provide a versatile setup for hosting guests. A second bathroom and dedicated laundry add everyday convenience, while the wetback system helps support hot water heating. UV-filtered rainwater, with backup bore water, further enhances the home's practical and environmentally conscious appeal.
Outside, the organic gardens are a delight, with permaculture-inspired raised vegetable beds, composting areas and an orchard producing everything from citrus and figs to berries and stone fruit. 10 year old native trees attract birdlife, while macrocarpa decking, sheltered seating and an outdoor bath invite slower moments. A separate hobby room, high-stud two-bay shed, six carparks and discreet parking for a caravan or house truck add versatility, with established pine trees providing a supply of firewood.
Set along Flett Road in Lower Moutere, this sheltered retreat brings together sustainable living, productive gardens and peaceful rural surroundings. Contact Karen Holliday to arrange your viewing.
