132 Aston Road, Moa Creek, Central Otago

Sometimes, in life, you get lucky. You time it, just right. Now’s one of those times. You see, 132 Aston Road has never been on the market before. The owners have loved this magical wee Moa Creek property so much – they’ve lived here - more or less - for five decades.
They’ve raised children and sheep. They’ve swam in the creek that gave the area its name. Pulled lobsters from it. They’ve grown fruit. Produced jams and chutneys. They’ve barbequed under Central’s scorching hot sun. The house-proud couple don’t want to leave but are smart enough to realise they must. Their departure means someone else can enjoy this idyllic little Ida Valley escape as much as they have.

The immaculate 1960’s built three-bedroom one-bathroom plaster-over-brick home sits on just over 3.3 hectares of rolling, well-sheltered and irrigated land. The house has two double bedrooms and one smaller one, which is currently being used as an office. The tidy family bathroom, which incorporates a shower over a bath, features underfloor heating, while there’s a second toilet in the laundry. The kitchen, living, and dining space is open plan and is heated by a log burner, cool old Orion coal range and heat transfer system. Almost all the windows and doors are double glazed, and this older home is well insulated, ensuring you stay warm in the winter. There’s a large walk-in-pantry off the kitchen for the jams and chutneys you’ll produce from the property. There are two beaut entertaining areas – a spacious north facing deck off the front of the house – as well an elevated patio and shade sail – perfect for those summer barbies.

The well-maintained property boasts heaps of shedding. There’s a couple of smaller storage sheds near the house, a one car garage, and a 3-bay shed with lean to and sheep handling facilities. The lawns and garden are just as immaculate as the house and offer raspberries, strawberries, blackcurrants, pears, grapes, apples, rosemary and more. The land is fenced into four paddocks and can be flood irrigated four times a season, which means this wee property can grow heaps of grass for your choice of animals. There’s a small pond, lots of lovely trees – some of which can be used for firewood – and then there’s that gorgeous wee Moa Creek that makes its way through this idyllic little property.

This exceptional lifestyle property – on the market for the first time – is just 27 kilometres from Alexandra and the lucky new owners will enjoy everything ‘the good life’ has to offer in this special part of country.
