288 Barnes Road, Lincoln, Selwyn, Canterbury

Tucked away in a private position at the rear of the block, this unique lifestyle property delivers modern comfort and complete self-sufficiency — all with an incredible alpine outlook.

The contemporary two-bedroom home has been thoughtfully designed to blend comfort with connection. Light-filled open-plan living spills out to a sun-drenched deck — the perfect spot to savour a glass of wine as the sun sets, or soak in the outdoor bath under a canopy of stars. Both bedrooms are spacious with built-in robes, and the log burner creates a warm, inviting heart to the home. A stylish kitchen with gas cooking and a well-appointed bathroom complete this modern haven.

Fully off-grid and future-ready, the property runs on solar power with a generator backup, a biolytix septic system, its own well, and a water softener system — delivering true independence without compromise.

Outdoors, every detail invites relaxation and connection. Entertain under the enclosed alfresco area with its kitchen nook and pizza oven, or make the most of the well-planned extras — an outdoor laundry, a large concrete-floored shed, an additional sleepout or storage room, and excellent firewood storage below the home.

The land is just as enchanting — with fenced paddocks, a flourishing fruit orchard with a variety of apples, pears, plums, peaches, figs, feijoas and cherries, and a greenhouse ready for year-round growing.

This is more than a home; it’s a sanctuary for those seeking space, serenity, and a life lived in harmony with the land.
