3 Ararat Lane, Sumner, Christchurch City, Canterbury

Such an incredible combination, this architecturally designed split-level family home by award-winning AO Architecture showcases the innovative Potius panel system, bringing together strength, energy efficiency, and contemporary design in one beautifully finished package, built by Manuka Builds.

Positioned to capture sweeping panoramic views across the city to the coastline, and stretching over the Alps to the Kaikoura Ranges as far as the eye can see, this home has been thoughtfully created with quality and performance in mind. Its elevated setting means the views are protected and won't be built on, ensuring the scenery remains a standout feature. Built using the Potius engineered timber system, it offers excellent structural integrity, thermal efficiency with Canadian spray foam, and long-term durability.

The layout has been carefully considered for modern family living. The main level features the master suite, open-plan kitchen, dining and living areas, along with internal-access garaging, making everyday living easy. Downstairs provides a separate space for children or guests, with additional bedrooms, a third living area, and its own deck with easy access to the lawn. Ideal for entertaining or giving everyone their own space.

Inside, the home feels warm, light, and easy to live in. Thermally broken joinery, individual heating units in each bedroom, and a wood burner in the main living area ensure comfort all year round. The open-plan living flows seamlessly to generous outdoor decking. A private, peaceful space for time with friends and family or to simply unwind while taking in the views.
