Description
Set within Brinkley Resort, this second-storey apartment presents a smart, flexible ownership opportunity in the heart of Methven’s alpine playground. Configured as a two-bedroom apartment alongside a self-contained studio, it can be enjoyed as a full three-bedroom retreat or split to suit different stays and letting options. Whether you’re seeking a low-cost holiday base for ski season, a shared escape for two families, or an income-generating foothold in a tightly held resort environment, this one is tailored for lifestyle-led buyers who value versatility.
The main apartment is arranged around open-plan living and dining, designed for easy, comfortable downtime after days spent on the mountain or exploring the region. Large windows invite natural light into the living area, while doors open out to a private balcony overlooking the landscaped grounds. The well-appointed kitchen is practical and tidy, with ample cabinetry and bench space.
The main apartment includes two comfortable bedrooms, serviced by a central bathroom and separate WC, offering functionality for families or groups. The studio apartment is with its own kitchenette, laundry and ensuite, perfect for guests, extended family, or independent letting.
Ownership here comes with access to an suite of shared amenities. Residents and guests enjoy use of the spa area, BBQ zones, tennis court, playground and beautifully maintained common grounds, with a seasonally open restaurant and bar onsite. A helicopter pad further underscores the resort’s alpine credentials. The apartment is held under a Stratum in Freehold (Unit Title), governed by a Body Corporate, with occupancy capped at 90 days and leasing managed through the onsite letting pool.
Brinkley Resort is ideally placed for year-round adventure. Methven is renowned as the gateway to Mt Hutt, one of the South Island’s premier ski fields, while summer brings biking, fishing, golfing and easy access to the wider Canterbury High Country.
