Description
Held by the same family for over 35 years, this standout 4-hectare property is now offered to the market with firm instructions to sell. Properties of this calibre, blending character and future opportunity, are seldom available.
At the heart of the property sits a solid Oamaru stone home, rich in warmth and timeless appeal. With three bedrooms, one bathroom, and a cosy living space anchored by a log burner, it's a home that immediately feels welcoming. A separate double garage services the house, while an impressive range of outbuildings adds serious flexibility - including a workshop, caravan shed, games room, and additional garaging to suit hobbies, storage, or home-based projects.
Step outside and the story truly unfolds. Over three decades of careful planting has created a garden that feels established, private, and wonderfully alive. Mature trees provide shelter and shade, sweeping lawns invite picnics and play, and colourful plantings and native pockets create hidden corners to explore, relax, and enjoy.
The land is well fenced and ideal for grazing, while the gum plantation at the rear offers a sustainable supply of firewood for winters to come - a practical bonus that speaks to the thoughtful stewardship of the property over time.
Positioned within Christchurch City Council's Rural Urban Fringe zoning, this is a location that delivers the best of both worlds. Enjoy peace, privacy, and space, all while being just 20 minutes from Christchurch International Airport. Whether you're seeking a lifestyle escape, room for animals, or a strategic landbank with future upside, this property ticks every box.
This is your chance to secure a truly special slice of Old West Coast Road and begin writing its next story.
