Alison Aitken Harcourts City Christchurch
Three decades ago our industrious and uncompromising owners selected this brilliant elevated plateau site above Akaroa Harbour to build their dream home. However, a new business venture necessitates relinquishing the keys to this most uplifting environment in pursuit of new plans.
Farewelling this one-of-a-kind property will not be easy, given the care and craftsmanship that has been bestowed upon it over the years. From the striking recycled timber to the hand laid brick and slate flooring, there is heart and soul everywhere you look.
Exuding warmth, the home's hospitality has been enjoyed by friends and strangers for many years as our clients have run a bed & breakfast from the property offering travellers a unique slice of peninsula life. While you may wish to continue this with the adjoining self-contained Gatekeepers Cottage, the property could just as easily be converted back into a single family home.
You are minutes from the waterfront, the magical pier and the fascinating melange of bars, cafes and shops. Whilst close to the hub of the village you can enjoy the tranquillity of living on the rural fringe, an uncompromised northerly aspect you will be engulfed by all day sun.
The 4.412 hectare parcel (over 10 acres) is divided into 4 well-fenced portions of easily maintained grounds set in an idylic environment with a mixture of native forest and formal gardens teaming with birdlife.
There are options to acquire additional land should you wish and if self-sufficiency is what you seek, then it's all here... your own spring water, wood-fired hot water, central heating and fertile land.
If you are the successful purchaser life will never be the same - nor would you want it to be.
