8 Payling Lane, Mairehau, Christchurch City, Canterbury

Auction: On site at 8 Payling Lane, Mairehau – Thursday 25 September 2025 at 1pm (unless sold prior)

This isn’t just another big home, it’s a rare one. On a freehold 1,087m² title, with a 318m² residence of genuine scale, this property combines full ownership security with the kind of size and flexibility that makes it stand out in central Mairehau.

The generous layout delivers four bedrooms, three bathrooms and two living areas, all designed for family comfort and modern lifestyles. The ground floor anchors everyday living with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, while upstairs a separate self-contained suite with its own entrance, living area, kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom adds true multi-generational appeal. It’s ready to be whatever you need it to be. Teenagers’ lair, in-laws’ retreat, Airbnb side hustle, or your new HQ for work.

The living spaces are where this home really shines: lofty ceilings with exposed beams, sunlit lounges that connect to patios, plus a kitchen and dining area equally at ease with weekday meals or long celebratory dinners. Outside, you’ll find an entertainer’s zone, sheltered areas for BBQs and gatherings and hedged gardens for privacy. Lawns provide room for kids, pets or simply a hammock.

Practicality comes in the form of triple car garaging and 5kW solar panels above, meaning more storage, more sustainability, more savings.

Then there’s the location - a lane that feels private, yet with schools, shops, parks, supermarkets, cafés and even a garden centre within walking distance. Motorway access is close by, keeping commutes smooth and weekends flexible.

Homes of this size and value on freehold land in Mairehau are always in demand. The hammer will fall, the only question is, will it fall for you? Give Marianna Westley a call on 021 399787 to secure your spot.
