Perched proudly atop a rolling hill, with spectacular 360-degree views across the surrounding countryside, this distinctive property offers a captivating blend of architectural character, modern comfort and lifestyle freedom. Set on approximately 8,500sqm, the tastefully renovated main residence and separate one-bedroom dwelling create an appealing retreat for buyers seeking privacy, tranquillity and room for extended family, all approximately ten minutes from both Rangiora and Ravenswood.
Constructed from earth block, the main home has a presence and personality all its own. A grand entrance introduces the generous proportions, while cathedral ceilings and an intriguing split-level layout bring character to the living spaces. Thoughtfully renovated throughout, the interiors combine modern neutral tones, updated carpets and tiled floors for a welcoming, cohesive finish.
The elevated kitchen forms the heart of the home, with bespoke lighting, beautiful views and a natural connection to the dining and living area below. A cosy log burner provides warmth and atmosphere, while the adjoining garden room offers an inviting spot to settle with a morning coffee or enjoy the changing seasons. Stepping down to the second lounge reveals soaring ceilings and expansive windows that draw the surrounding landscape into the home. Doors open to a large patio and north-facing verandah, extending the living spaces outdoors for relaxed entertaining or quiet afternoons overlooking the grounds.
Four double bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, including a generous master with a walk-in wardrobe. A dedicated office space adds flexibility for working from home, while ample storage and a separate laundry support everyday family living. Both bathrooms feature tiled finishes, with the main bathroom offering a deep bath, separate shower and vanity, complemented by a separate guest toilet alongside. The second bathroom includes a shower, toilet and vanity, conveniently positioned near the covered outdoor spa area.
The separate dwelling adds another dimension to this special property. Updated throughout and enjoying its own entrance, it features a spacious bedroom with walk-in wardrobe, a large kitchen and open-plan dining and living. A log burner and heat pump provide comfort through the seasons, while the bathroom incorporates laundry facilities. An attached carport and covered verandah complete an appealing home for extended family or guests, offering independence while keeping loved ones close.
Outside, spacious lawns and beautifully established gardens unfold below the main residence. Walkways meander through the planting to a picturesque pond, with peaceful sitting areas offering different places to pause and appreciate the setting. A fenced paddock provides space for a couple of sheep, delivering the pleasures of a small lifestyle holding without extensive acreage.
Multiple sheds accommodate firewood, a ride-on mower and lifestyle equipment, while generous parking provides room for a caravan, boat or recreational vehicles. The water system has also been updated, including the well pump, water pump and filtration system beside the tank.
Private, peaceful and wonderfully individual, this is a property that invites you to slow down and enjoy your surroundings. With two dwellings, striking architectural features and panoramic views, it presents a rare opportunity to secure a manageable lifestyle retreat close to town.
Due to unforeseen health reasons, the vendors have made the difficult decision to sell before completing the final steps towards obtaining a Code Compliance Certificate from the Waimakariri District Council. This presents an opportunity for the next owners to take this special property forward and make it their own.
