Richie and Gemma McCaw have sold their four-bedroom home in Fendalton, Christchurch. The property was withdrawn from auction after bidding stalled at $3.6 million and sold afterwards via negotiation for an undisclosed sum to a young family.

The architecturally designed home by Sheppard & Rout was the McCaw's base before their permanent move to Wānaka. The successful sale, with multiple bidders involved, is seen as a positive sign for Christchurch's high-end property market.

The McCaw's purchased the 2014-built, Sheppard & Rout Architects-design home in 2021.

The flooring is American oak.

The contemporary kitchen was designed by Ingrid Geldof.

The large doors open out to the garden.
