Panoramic views / heritage barn / 6.5 hectares

A grand assembly of mature oaks and elms frames the landscape of this 6.5190-hectare property in Fernside, offering a visually stunning retreat and a natural wind barrier to create an exceptional lifestyle package.

Entering the market with a strong commitment to selling, this property boasts land that is superbly sheltered and securely fenced, segmented into an upper and lower terrace.

The home itself is an elevated and easy-care three-bedroom sanctuary, taking in panoramic views across the spectacular scenery. Its single-level layout is a testament to classic design and neutral finishes, featuring a thoughtfully planned arrangement that includes two bathrooms - a family bathroom and a master ensuite - ensuring practicality and comfort in daily living.

Superbly orientated to capture the afternoon sunshine, the home's generous living room is complemented by an open-plan kitchen and dining area, with each having connections to the great outdoors.

A comprehensive array of practical outbuildings enhances the property's utility and appeal. Notably, it features a heritage barn over a century old, currently serving as a shearing shed and sheep yards, with a history of use as horse stables.

Additionally, there is both a four-bay barn and a four-bay shed, both with two enclosed and two open bays, as well as power. Completing the ensemble is a robust concrete block workshop and a glasshouse, adding to the property's practicality and charm.

Located just five minutes from the local school, ten minutes from Rangiora, and a half-hour from the Christchurch CBD, this property is poised for an imminent change of ownership, calling for your earliest attention.
