Property Description

Set on 1.143m2 of flat, tidy land overlooking Riverlea Estates Reserve, this classic Kainga property offers a unique opportunity to secure an affordable slice of semi-rural living, just minutes from the city. Tucked away in a peaceful setting and only a short stroll from the river, you'll enjoy easy access to walking tracks, fishing, birdlife and the relaxed lifestyle that makes Kainga special.
While the house would benefit from some loving, the value on offer here extends far beyond the main dwelling itself, which is being sold in its current condition. Included with the sale is a standalone studio, two car garage, woodshed, tool shed and a 40 ft container, providing exceptional space for hobbies, projects, equipment, vehicles and recreational toys. The fully fenced section also offers peace of mind for families and pet owners.
Inside, the home retains its original cottage charm with a practical and comfortable layout. Downstairs you'll find the kitchen, family living area, bathroom, separate toilet and small bedroom. There is also a decent sized under stairs alcove, which is currently used as a study. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, including the master, which enjoys lovely views across the reserve.
Whether you're searching for a peaceful retreat, lifestyle property, renovation project, or simply a large section with outstanding utility, this property presents plenty of possibilities. The expansive grounds provide room for gardens, outdoor living, family adventures and future plans, while the collection of sheds and storage spaces creates flexibility rarely found at this price point.
Kainga offers a slower pace of life that feels far removed from the city, yet Northwood and its extensive amenities are only minutes away. With continued growth and investment occurring throughout northern Christchurch, this location offers both lifestyle appeal and long-term potential. Opportunities to secure well-positioned land of this size are becoming increasingly scarce, making this a property well worth your consideration. (Building Report available on request).
