Where Lifestyle Meets Opportunity - A Rare Twizel
Some properties simply feel special. 23 Old Glen Lyon Road is one of them.
Cherished and meticulously maintained by its current owners for more than 20 years, this much-loved property has been a treasured holiday home and a place where countless memories have been made. Now, as its owners embark on their next chapter, an exceptional opportunity presents itself for a new owner.
Set on an expansive 10,000sqm section in the heart of Mackenzie Country, this is where lifestyle and potential come together in a way that is increasingly difficult to find.
The home offers classic Kiwi charm with comfortable modern living. At its heart is a light-filled open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, with breathtaking mountain views enjoyed from every window. Wonderful indoor-outdoor flow leads to an expansive, sun-drenched wraparound deck, made for summer barbecues, long lunches and taking in the spectacular surroundings.
The home offers three bedrooms, with the master enjoying private deck access, alongside a family bathroom with shower and bath, separate toilet and dedicated laundry. A fourth bedroom with its own ensuite is located in the sleepout adjoining the spacious double garage, providing excellent accommodation for guests or extended family.
Then there is the land - and this is where the opportunity really begins.
The expansive 10,000sqm section offers genuine potential for subdivision, subject to the necessary approvals, while the main home itself could provide an excellent Airbnb or holiday accommodation opportunity.
For the astute purchaser, there is plenty of upside to be realised. Secure a substantial lifestyle property, explore development potential, create an income stream or simply enjoy the freedom that comes with having this much space.
Walk into Twizel along the river or through the trees, enjoy easy access to boating lakes, fishing spots and bike trails, or make the most of the generous grounds with family and friends. As evening falls, experience the spectacular night skies that Twizel is renowned for.
An opportunity to invest. An opportunity to develop. An opportunity to create something of your own.
Here, lifestyle meets opportunity - and the possibilities are yours to explore.
Auction: 9th October at 2 pm, at the LJ Hooker Twizel Office
