Alpine Retreat

Tucked away at the base of Mt Hutt in the picturesque Mid Canterbury foothills, this exceptional lifestyle property presents a rare opportunity to live immersed in nature while enjoying modern comfort and complete privacy. Bordering the Awa Awa Rata Reserve, the elevated two-hectare setting is framed by native bush, alive with birdsong and an abundance of wildlife, while being complemented by magnificent, ever-changing views.

Thoughtfully designed by the owners as a true “home away from home” lodge, the residence blends space, warmth and character. The open-plan kitchen and dining area, along with the adjacent living space, form the heart of the home. A vaulted ceiling enhances the sense of volume and light, while natural timber features throughout add warmth and sit perfectly within the surrounding landscape.

The home includes three generous bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus a separate office/fourth bedroom ideal for family living or hosting guests. The master suite is a private upstairs retreat, with a large walk-in wardrobe and ensuite.
An internal access double garage and two additional sheds provide ample space for storage, tools and outdoor gear. Private and secluded, this is a home where you can truly switch off and unwind.

Adventure and recreation are right on your doorstep. From snow skiing at Mt Hutt, mountain biking at the Mt Hutt Bike Park or walking the trails in the Awa Awa Rata Reserve, to fishing and jet boating the Rakaia River, this location is a true playground for outdoor enthusiasts.

A rare combination of space, serenity and lifestyle. This is foothills living at its finest, call Mike or Simon today to secure your viewing.
