Alpine styling meets classic country charm in this idyllic four bedroom North Canterbury home nestled amongst stunningly landscaped gardens with established planting.

The cedar cladding and corrugated roofing effortlessly connect with the surrounding environment and present a contemporary lifestyle farm chic that is immediately attractive.

Chalet style vaulted ceilings soar to the apex and large skylights create a delicate interplay with nature in this fully tiled open plan living and kitchen area at the heart of the home. Accommodation is separated for privacy with two double bedrooms on the mezzanine level and two further double bedrooms downstairs, all with attractive outlooks and built-in storage.

Outside is where this property maximises its elevated situation, soaking in the stunning views across the Canterbury Plains to the mountains beyond. The adjoining pergola with winding vines provides shade for the large paved patio area that gently gives way to the attractive gardens with its own pond and a sympathetic mixture of native and exotic plantings. With an outside fire and pizza oven, there is truly no better space for outdoor living and alfresco entertaining.

Practical life is catered to by an external double garage with a spacious adjoining workshop, a woodshed, and over five hectares of fenced paddocks with fertile soils.

Your recreational activities are covered with a popular surf beach only 15 minutes away, superb local bush walks/mountain biking trails, and several ski fields within easy reach. Situated a short drive from the amenities of Rangiora and only a 30 minute commute to Christchurch, this is a property that offers the opportunity to live a true rural lifestyle while still enjoying the convenience of city living.

Don't delay, your inspection is guaranteed to impress!
