89 Shepherd Avenue, West Melton, Selwyn, Canterbury

Homes with this much land, this level of finish and this sense of calm are getting harder to secure in West Melton, and this one makes its case clearly. Set on a full 1,064sqm section, it gives you breathing room now and long-term leverage later. From the moment you arrive, mature planting, established hedging and a well-set-back position create privacy that feels intentional.

Inside, the main living zone is open, bright and anchored by a kitchen that’s designed for proper use. There’s generous bench space, quality appliances and storage where you actually need it, making everyday cooking easy and entertaining effortless. The dining area opens straight to the deck, so summer meals, kids moving in and out, and relaxed evenings all flow naturally.

A second living room gives you options. Shut the door and you’ve got a media room, a quieter lounge, or space for guests without disrupting the main hub. Open it up and the house flexes easily for larger gatherings.

The master bedroom is positioned for privacy and comes with its own ensuite. Three additional bedrooms are well sized and sensibly arranged, supported by a modern family bathroom. A dedicated laundry and internal-access triple garage round things out, offering serious storage and parking.

Step outside and the section earns its keep again. The gardens are established and sheltered, with room to entertain, room to grow, and room to simply enjoy. It’s low-stress, high-reward land that you can personalise at your pace.

From here, you’re close to West Melton School, early childhood centres, the community centre and Foster Park, with the Domain and local walking tracks adding everyday ease. Rolleston’s shopping, dining and medical services are a short drive away, and Christchurch city is an easy commute, making this location work now and long-term.

If you want space without isolation, quality without excess, and a home that still stacks up five years from now, this one deserves your attention.
