Deadline Sale - 1pm, Wed 21 June 2026 (unless sold prior)
Bordering the Styx River across 4.2ha, this double-dwelling lifestyle property brings together full equestrian facilities, multi-generational flexibility and genuine country freedom within the city limits.
For equestrian buyers, the existing infrastructure is exceptional, offering stables, horse boxes, a tack room, a wash-down bay, utility sheds, shelter huts, a training track, and post-and-rail paddocks, ensuring the land performs from day one.
Beyond this, the main residence carries all the hallmarks of modern family living, delivering four bedrooms, two living areas and internal-access double garaging, backed by the confidence and comfort of post-quake construction.
Open-plan living unfolds around a well-appointed kitchen with a central island and walk-in pantry, while a separate lounge allows family life to separate and reconnect with greater ease.
The master suite claims its own corner and raises the standard with outdoor access, a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite, ensuring the home carries ample space for the changing pace of family life.
Adding another layer of flexibility is the property's original home, now extensively renovated into a polished secondary dwelling that enhances flexibility for extended family, guests, or independent living arrangements.
Picturesque surroundings and the Styx River boundary create a genuine rural retreat that offers extraordinary outlooks in every direction, yet Prestons sits less than five minutes away for your everyday essentials, and Christchurch remains within an easy 15-minute drive when the inner city calls.
River boundary, dual dwellings, an outstanding equestrian complex, and a city-fringe address rarely come together in the same package, placing this property in an entirely different category from the lifestyle norm.
Please get in touch with Jack or Mark for further information.
