The crystal clear waters of Spring Creek flow gently along the northern boundary of this very attractive Rapaura property, home to trophy trout, freshwater crayfish, freshwater mussels, passing whitebait, several breeds of duck, Pukeko and Kingfisher.
The beautifully landscaped ground 8,420sqm (2 acre) grounds include groomed lawn running down to the stream, two paddocks to the side, fruit and nut trees, berry and raised vegetable beds and attract Tui and Bellbird.
A large comfortable home is built of brick and cedar and features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living areas, a separate dining room/sunroom area, a study, and a modern open plan kitchen. It all flows out to a generous raised deck overlooking the gardens and stream, ideal for outdoor entertaining.
There is excellent heating throughout, with a log burner on wet back, two heat pumps(one in the main home and one in the adjoining flat), a heat transfer system, an HRV system, solar and electric hot water and plenty of natural light throughout.
In addition, there is a self contained flat with potential for B & B or extended family. Completing the picture is fantastic storage and garaging for up to approximately 7 vehicles and the high ceiling makes it ideal for the storage of a high camper van or boat.
The current owners have been here enjoying peace, privacy and good neighbours for 16 years but the vendors are ready to begin their next chapter so now is the time for new owners to be captivated by this restful ambience, only 10 minutes from central Blenheim but with all the benefits of rural living.
