This is a house born in the 1960s with all the very best design of that classic era and almost entirely rejuvenated in this millennium under the direction of Stewart Ross Architect. Who better to choose, with his expertise in heritage and indigenous architecture? The property is positioned due north and views are both quietly rural and vastly spectacular. On a clear day Mt Cook is discernible in the distance. Accommodation is convoluted in the best sense, and must be explored to be appreciated. Abundant bedrooms are separated by various levels with several opening onto a sun-drenched verandah to the north. There are study areas, a master suite, a wine cellar, and storage in every nook and cranny. Interconnecting living rooms have double glazed picture windows and a log burner to warm throughout. Adding to the space inside, a separate studio of about 26sqm recently constructed in the garden has its own entrance and verandah, with sprawling views across the Canterbury Plains. This could be an idyllic spot in which to work from home. Twin garages with space for four vehicles and a workshop will likewise have broad appeal. A charming hillside garden designed by Landscaper John Marsh, has plenty of flat outdoor spaces and established planting including bountiful, and some exotic, vegetables! This is a prized neighbourhood, first populated in the 1860s; a special pastoral enclave of housing close to enjoyable walking tracks where you can take in the views and listen to the birdsong and all just 20 minutes' drive time from our central city. Now too big for our seller, a home in town has been purchased already, so the sale of this exceptional property is imminent.
