Description
Rare 10-Acre Lifestyle Opportunity — 21 Long View Lane, Swannanoa
An unbelievable and unique opportunity for someone with a vision of their own.
Positioned privately as Lot 7 of 9 up the fully sealed Long View Lane with no exit, this outstanding approx. 10-acre / 4-hectare lifestyle block offers rare scale, privacy, and uninterrupted panoramic views in one of Swannanoa’s most desirable rural settings. Flat, fully fenced, grassed, and beautifully orientated to the north, this almost square approx. 200m x 200m section is ready for a new owner with imagination, ambition, and the desire to create something truly special. This is not just another lifestyle block. With magnificent views of the Southern Alps to the west, Mount Grey / Maukatere to the north, and the Christchurch Port Hills to the south, 21 Long View Lane delivers an exceptional sense of space, outlook, and possibility. There are no high voltage pylons in near view and it’s not in the Christchurch airport flight path either.
Key Features
- Approx. 10 acres / 4 hectares of totally flat, north-facing land.
- Private position — 21 Long View Lane (Lot 7) , with sealed access shared by only 9 properties.

Build Your Vision Other than the usual Waimakariri District Council requirements, there are little or no building recession plane or height restrictions. Allowable building activity includes one main dwelling of approx. 200m² minimum or larger, plus one additional separate dwelling of up to 90m². Additional storage and shed type buildings are also allowed. For buyers wanting a head start, there is also an option to purchase high-quality architectural concept plans commissioned specifically for this property and created by an award-winning local architect. These are available as an additional investment by negotiation.
High-Performance Building Possibilities The vendors are also associated with Climate Smart Building Solutions, who can assist with planning, design, and full construction of dwellings or other buildings. Climate Smart Building Solutions specialise in Passivhaus and similar high-performance building methods — a stringent European standard recognised among the world’s leading approaches for comfortable, healthy, low-energy homes that can be designed for off-grid, on-grid, or hybrid living.
