225 Hoon Hay Road, Hoon Hay, Christchurch City, Canterbury

Tucked quietly down a private drive and backing onto the Heathcote River, this much-loved family home is being offered to the market for the very first time — and it’s easy to see why it’s been so tightly held.

Set across two levels and partially double glazed, the home is warm, welcoming, and beautifully positioned to enjoy riverside calm and leafy Centennial Park views, all while being zoned for the highly sought-after Cashmere High School.

Downstairs is designed for easy, everyday living, with generous open-plan living flowing seamlessly to a private courtyard and patio — ideal for entertaining or quiet mornings outdoors. The kitchen connects effortlessly to the living space, while the master suite enjoys the convenience of ground-floor living, complete with ensuite and his-and-hers vanity. A separate guest toilet with two-way access and internal-access double garaging with a dedicated laundry area complete the lower level.

Upstairs offers a further three spacious bedrooms, a family bathroom with spa bath, a separate toilet with basin, and excellent storage throughout — space that works just as well for families as it does for those who simply appreciate room to breathe.

Year-round comfort is assured with a log burner, heat transfer system to the master, and a heat pump keeping the home cosy in winter and cool in summer.

What truly sets this property apart is its position. Fronting the Heathcote River and overlooking Centennial Park, you’re also moments from Pioneer Sports & Pool and close to the Adventure Park. Outlook, privacy, and lifestyle come together here in a way that simply can’t be replicated.

A rare opportunity. A tightly held location. A home that feels just right.
