Please call for viewing times.

Tucked within a peaceful and sheltered valley, this substantial 18-hectare lifestyle offers an exceptional combination of privacy, established surroundings filled with birdsong and possibilities. Mature gardens frame the home, while grazing land and tracks extending up the hillside create a genuine sense of space and provide plenty of scope to explore and enjoy the property.

At the heart of the property is a substantial five-bedroom residence, offered on an 'as is where is' basis and presenting an exciting opportunity for purchasers looking to unlock its potential.

Generous proportions define the home, with a large open-plan kitchen, dining and living area providing the central hub. The kitchen is well equipped, while the adjoining dining area opens directly to an outdoor patio.

The spacious main living area features a distinctive double staircase and central landing, creating an impressive architectural focal point. A log burner and heat pump add everyday comfort, while a large entrance room further emphasises the scale of the home.

Flexibility continues downstairs, where a games room provides options as a family room, additional living space or office, complete with its own heat pump and outdoor access. A separate office, laundry, downstairs toilet and internal access to two double garages add further practicality.
Upstairs, five generously sized bedrooms provide ample accommodation. Two bedrooms enjoy their own private balconies, including the master with its walk-in wardrobe, while another features an ensuite. A family bathroom with spa bath caters to the remaining bedrooms, while a separate sewing room offers flexibility for a home office, hobbies or storage.

Beyond the home, the property really comes into its own. Established gardens create a picturesque backdrop for the private swimming pool, complete with change room, outdoor shower and an adjoining area for relaxing. A concrete tennis court adds another recreational dimension, making the grounds particularly well suited to families and entertaining.

Practical requirements are equally well catered for. Two double garages provide extensive vehicle and storage space, complemented by a workshop, separate shed and former deer shed offering further storage and utility options.

The surrounding land has been used for cattle grazing, while established tracks lead up the hillside and offer another way to experience the property and its peaceful rural setting.

This versatile property is conveniently located under 30 minutes of central Christchurch, and for purchasers with vision, this 'as is, where is' opportunity, provides considerable scope to enhance the home and create something truly special within an already impressive setting.
