'Arbour-Lea' - classic appeal in the best location

A property of magnificent proportions - your ultimate family home and entertainers dream!

The significant 680sqm residence offers a level of grandeur rarely found in this premium, sought-after location, approx. 25 mins to Christchurch City and International airport.

Formal gardens, extensive mature specimen trees, water features, and your very own spring-fed stream provide a breath-taking backdrop as you enter through electric security gates and sight the impressive grand estate.

The six bedroom residence has been created offering generous proportions. Features include a formal foyer with grand staircase and a combination of open plan and formal living spaces including: a huge billiard room/formal lounge, impressive recently renovated open plan kitchen/dining/living area which flows seamlessly to a new covered outdoor entertaining area complete with flat screen TV, and open fire. For winter warmth there is a fully automated central heating system inclusive of 21 radiators distributed throughout the home, plus a feature open fire and log burner.

Extensive indoor/outdoor flow to sunny outdoor living spaces ensures you can enjoy and appreciate the impressive park-like grounds. Further complementing the outdoor facilities is a heated inground swimming pool, floodlit asphalt tennis court, and feature outdoor fireplace.

The picturesque mature gardens which have featured on the 'Ohoka Garden Tour' provide an amazing visual symphony and would rate in New Zealand's most impressive.

With 11.8645ha of land the options are endless, including possible subdivision into two lots (consent approval obtained). In addition to the large forest/wooded area there are two paddocks suitable for livestock, horses etc. Outbuildings include a large lock-up (4) four bay garage unit adjacent to the home, perfect for all the toys!

After many enjoyable years enhancing 'Arbour-Lea' our vendors have new projects on the horizon. Make no mistake; this has to be one of the most impressive properties I have viewed.
