Tranquillity reigns supreme at this exceptionally picturesque property in the enchanting surrounds of Tai Tapu. A tree-lined driveway, a private pond with a stone bridge and an outstanding park-like landscape set the scene to this 540sqm (approx) residence. Solid cedar double doors at the entranceway offer a memorable first impression, with walnut flooring and light-filled spaces complemented by neutral tones and calming vistas. Immaculate gardens and sprawling lawns deliver an unrivalled outlook. The heated swimming pool will be a popular area over summer months, and the spa pool ensures you can unwind in warmth outdoors, even as the temperatures start to drop. An impressive array of living areas can accommodate any number of occasions including the sun-lit conservatory. If working from home is a consideration, there is a dedicated office. Bedrooms and bathrooms include a self-contained guest suite. Heating options deliver absolute comfort throughout the year including heat pumps, log burner and gas fire. However, nothing can top the traditional allure of the open fireplace, which takes centre stage in the lounge. An active security system monitors the home, and outdoor lighting heightens the relaxed atmosphere as the sun begins to set. Keen gardeners will appreciate the presence of a sheltered vegetable garden, with the wider 4-hectare lifestyle block also including an irrigation consent, open two-bay shed, a woodshed, sheep yards and three paddocks. A mammoth amount of garaging can cater for six vehicles, and one garage is currently utilised as a workshop. Nestled in-between Tai Tapu and Lincoln on the outskirts of the city, you are also a brief 10-minute commute from Halswell which provides you with country quiet near suburban convenience. This vast residence epitomises classic country living and provides you with the opportunity to attain an undeniably elegant escape. To view the property video - https://vimeo.com/366890287
