10 Hakataramea Valley Road, Kurow, Waitaki, Otago

A home that feels like a retreat, a lifestyle that feels like a reward. Set in the heart of the peaceful Hakataramea Valley, this two-storey country home captures everything people love about Waitaki and South Canterbury combined living: space, sunshine and serenity, all framed by sweeping rural views.

Inside, light filters through large picture windows, illuminating interiors that blend rustic warmth with relaxed comfort. The living room is lined with soft timber panelling and anchored by a wood burner that brings gentle heat through the cooler months. Every window looks out to greenery, giving a true feeling of being part of the valley itself.

The kitchen sits beneath a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, creating a bright, welcoming space to gather. Light wood cabinetry and white counters add simplicity, while French doors open to the wide deck.

Two bedrooms are positioned for privacy and light, each framed by wide windows that draw the outdoors in. One opens directly onto the deck through bifold doors. The main bathroom combines modern design with country charm, featuring a sleek shower, soaking tub, white vanity and bold black-tiled floor, complemented by a separate toilet for convenience.

Outdoors, the timber deck wraps around the home, surrounded by vibrant planting and wide views. There’s room to dine, unwind or sit beneath the deck where a hot tub and swing seat create the ultimate evening retreat. Beyond the deck, raised vegetable beds, a woodshed and an aviary complete the picture of true lifestyle living. A gravel drive leads to a basement workshop with a convinient second toilet and two garages, ideal for storage or weekend projects.

Located just minutes from Kurow and the pristine Hakataramea River, this property sits under the Ahuriri Valley dark skies, close to walking tracks, fly-fishing streams and the lakes and ski fields. It’s a setting that combines natural beauty with an ease of access rarely found.
