With its crisp, contemporary lines and distinct design, this four-bedroom home on 4.792 hectares represents a modern take on homespun rustic architecture while maximising incredibly serene surrounds.
The striking zincalume skin lining the exterior continues indoors, where a series of soaring cathedral ceilings accented with chunky exposed beams boost the country vernacular and solid timber barn doors add to the relaxed ambience.
Arranged across a pair of pavilions, the combination of hardwearing tiles, freshly repainted interiors and sun-soaked areas serve up an inherently warm welcome in the interlinked living and dining spaces.
A trio of entertaining areas is woven throughout the single-level floorplan, matched by an inclusive and open kitchen where wide countertops and a social breakfast bar cater for effortless entertaining.
Oriented to appreciate the uplifting environment, family areas wrap around an elevated terrace capped by electric louvres, allowing all-weather appreciation of a pastoral panorama which encompasses established gardens, secluded pond, rolling farmland, the Ashley River, and mountains beyond. Proximity to the Ashley River offers fantastic recreation options including mountain bike tracks and horse trekking.
Large slabs of north-facing glass collect all-day sun and the fusion of log burner, diesel underfloor heating and radiators delivers consistent temperature control. Spacious sleeping quarters are complemented by two bathrooms, with the master including a walk-in wardrobe and updated ensuite.
An assortment of quality outbuildings hosts a range of lifestyle categories, from equine enthusiasts to general livestock necessities thanks to well-fenced paddocks, two loose boxes/cattle yards, triple garaging, and workshop space.
Only 10 minutes from Rangiora and just over 30 minutes from Christchurch Airport.
