Positioned in the highly sought-after hillside enclave of Kennedys Bush, this architecturally designed residence offers an exceptional combination of privacy, sophistication, versatile living and breathtaking panoramic views. Constructed from aerated concrete and cedar, the home combines distinctive architectural appeal with a timeless, natural aesthetic. Stretching from the Southern Alps to Lake Ellesmere, the ever-changing outlook provides a spectacular backdrop of alpine scenery and unforgettable sunsets.

Designed to maximise natural light, space and indoor-outdoor flow, the home welcomes you through an elegant feature entrance and courtyard. At its heart, the designer kitchen features granite and stainless-steel benchtops, a walk-in pantry and excellent storage, connecting seamlessly with the expansive open-plan living and dining area. A striking picture window captures the views, while a separate lounge with a gas fireplace offers a cosy retreat.

With five bedrooms and a dedicated study, the home provides outstanding flexibility for families, professionals and guests. The private master suite features a walk-through wardrobe and a spacious ensuite with a bath and shower, while the additional bedrooms are complemented by a full family bathroom and a downstairs powder room. Polished concrete and bamboo flooring, underfloor heating and a separate, well-appointed laundry add comfort and practicality.

Upstairs, an elevated landing provides a peaceful retreat from which to appreciate the impressive outlook, with two bedrooms enjoying beautiful views across the surrounding landscape.

Outside, beautifully landscaped gardens create a private sanctuary, with multiple sun-soaked entertaining areas, tranquil water features and a motorised awning for year-round enjoyment. Whether hosting friends at sunset or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, the outdoor spaces offer the perfect setting to relax and entertain.

Completing the property is an oversized double garage with EV charging and generous off-street parking on a level driveway. Surrounded by nature and close to scenic walking tracks, Halswell Quarry Park, local cafes, Halswell Library and summer pool facilities, the location combines a peaceful hillside lifestyle with everyday convenience. Christchurch city centre is less than 20 minutes away.

Offering five bedrooms, a study, multiple living areas and spectacular panoramic views, this exceptional Kennedys Bush residence delivers space, style and versatility in a truly enviable setting.

Our owners have purchased, and all previous pricing is to be disregarded. This is a home of distinction in an outstanding location, offering an opportunity to embrace a lifestyle where breathtaking views, privacy and effortless living come together.
