The Quintessential Kiwi Bach

To download the information pack for this property, please type the below link into your web browser: www.propertyfiles.co.nz/property/FE8963
In the early 1980s the then owner of Castle Hill Station, John Reid, realized his dream of creating an alpine village. Sections were sold and houses were built in line with a design philosophy ensuring all buildings are compatible with the mountain environment. Almost 40 years on these holiday homes rarely come up for sale so we are pleased to bring to the market a one owner quintessential kiwi bach, much loved and well-used in this all year-round playground. This is where kiwi kids create lasting memories; water slides and building dams in the Thomas stream which runs alongside the village, exploring, biking, tramping and of course family ski days. In recent years the village has seen something of a resurgence with several new homes appearing as families prioritize more leisure time. The area enjoys its own little microclimate escaping the easterly wind and avoiding West Coast precipitation and only an hour and fifteen minutes from Christchurch. This warm and inviting home is constructed in the alpine style with exposed beams and natural timbers. Open plan kitchen and living is heated by a wood burner of course, and there is a separate living room as well. The walk-in pantry in the kitchen is the perfect solution for feeding multitudes! Almost completely double glazed, this is a wonderful winter retreat.Your 474sqm Freehold title feels more like a Park with no fences to hem you in. With rising section prices in the village and higher building costs this may be a much more affordable opportunity to secure a piece of paradise. We recommend you take a drive out here. You and the kids may well be captivated. Remember that old adage, "Families that play together, stay together"!
See you soon .
