Nestled in 23.43 hectares (more or less) of captivating countryside, this estate offers a masterclass in rural living, blending everyday solitude with the splendour of its picturesque surroundings.

The approach is marked by an idyllic, tree-lined entrance, setting a dignified tone that complements the classical Oamaru stone residence.

Unveiled within the polished interiors is a timelessly modern design, ideally in sync with the surroundings. This is underscored by a layout rich with near-floor-to-ceiling glazing that seamlessly highlights the indoor-outdoor connection while framing the landscape's natural beauty.

The heart of this residence is a spacious open-plan area combining living and dining, highlighted by an elegantly assigned kitchen, making it a versatile space for family interaction and entertaining. Accompanying this central area are a formal lounge and a separate study, each tailored for downtime and productive endeavours.

The sleeping quarters are superbly appointed, comprising four bedrooms and three bathrooms, with the master suite enjoying top-floor honours and the luxury of an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe.

The residence further impresses with a statement-making curved staircase, a series of diesel-powered radiators and underfloor for optimal warmth, and a triple-car garage for extensive vehicle and storage needs.

Outside, a series of patios designed for serene and sheltered outdoor entertaining set the stage for memorable alfresco gatherings elevated by the additional comfort of a swim spa.

Beyond the home, this extensive site, with its well-irrigated land, supports cattle grazing and features an aviation hangar, underscoring its unique status and exclusivity.

Situated on the fringes of Ashburton in Willowby, this location offers the advantage of being just 10 minutes away from the area's key local amenities, underscoring its comprehensive appeal as a convenient countryside retreat. Contact Mike or Jon for more information.
