This is no ordinary lifestyle block situated in arguably the optimum country location. At 4455sqm, just over one acre in old terms, this is a most manageable size and with an exquisite country garden. Designed by Architect Barry Morton, for himself, he has drawn on the pioneering work of Sir Miles Warren and others, in mid-century modernist style. Raw concrete block, steep roof lines, and a one room wide floor plan is reminiscent of some of Canterbury's most iconic architecture. Every room opens onto terraces to the north and west, sun-drenched, and taking full advantage of the structured formal planting to the north and west. An avenue of Oaks to the front and Hornbeams to the rear. The vista from the living rooms is stunning!
Inside and out, these current owners have been meticulous in upkeep during their time here with improvements and attention to detail. Heating solutions include an open fire, heat pump and a huge log burner. The kitchen boasts a Rosieres, Paul Bocuse, Range, and a roomy scullery. Cedar shutters are both practical and stylish and interconnecting living rooms can be separated as desired. Triple garaging has a lock-up storage room and there is a tunnel house already brimming with vegetables!
Sheltered from prevailing winds, this locale is popular not just for the climate, but drive time to Christchurch is much shorter on the new motorway. There is a very good country school at Ohoka three minutes away, and the Ohoka Farmers Market on Fridays is rated among the best!
Our sellers have missed the call of the ocean and are returning to live in Akaroa where they spent many happy years previously. They are leaving behind a truly beautiful, unique country property. We urge your viewing as we know you won't be disappointed!
