Property Description

Immaculately presented and impeccably crafted in 2010, this classically styled country homestead is proudly positioned in the heart of Le Bons Bay, Banks Peninsula.

This beautiful location enjoys idyllic sea and valley views, hillside paddocks for grazing cattle or sheep and two separate areas that are protected by conservation covenants, providing a thriving habitat for native flora and fauna. Spanning 113.8 ha from valley floor to ridgeline, there is ample scope for lifestyle, farming and/or tourism income opportunities. A woolshed, covered and external stock yards with a workshop are centrally located.

The home comprises a spacious and versatile layout with the downstairs bedroom currently configured as a large office with an adjoining bathroom. Upstairs are a further three bedrooms with en-suites, including the main bedroom suite. A separate studio with en-suite sits above the double garage.

Meticulously detailed interiors showcase oak panelling and flooring, brass hardware and high ceilings with a commitment to quality throughout.

The country-style kitchen, formal dining room and drawing room all enjoy a mix of valley and ocean views. Nearby, the sandy beach at Le Bons Bay is ideal for swimming, walking and fishing, while Christchurch City is less than a two-hour commute. Central heating, solar power, crystal clear spring water and excellent broadband coverage add to the appeal.

This property is truly what quality lifestyle real estate is all about offering broad appeal - either your South Island home away from home, a private residence for families and couples looking for a change of pace or expats looking for an ultimate way to re-enter New Zealand life whether working from home or relaxing.
