(unless sold prior)
Four hectares in Ashley Downs set the stage for a modern farmhouse defined by its design, breathtaking views, and seamless connection to the surrounding countryside.
Weatherboard cladding and a timber pergola give the home its classic farmhouse character, while the floor plan maximises light and outlook, with wraparound terraces and bifold doors allowing you to follow the sun and the scenery, both indoors and out.
The living layout is spacious and free-flowing, with the clean-lined kitchen and dining room opening outdoors from every angle, while also linking with the lounge that offers a cosier contrast, gathered around the comfort of a log burner.
The sky-lit top floor takes full advantage of its elevation with spectacular views, a second living area, a bathroom and two of the home's three bedrooms, creating a relaxed domain for the younger generation or guests.
The master bedroom with a tiled ensuite finds its place on the ground floor, positioning itself for privacy and a long-term tenure.
Beyond the home, the land features established plantings, a separate studio, and an additional shed offering space for vehicles, storage and projects.
Undeniably country but well connected, this property sits approx. 10 minutes north of Rangiora and only approx. 35 minutes' drive from Christchurch, to combine substance and setting with the accessibility modern life demands.
