Step into sophistication and rural serenity at this artfully reinvented residence by David Allen that occupies 5 acres of picturesque countryside only minutes from Christchurch's suburban perimeter.
Harmonising its architectural integrity with contemporary finesse, this home showcases a quintessentially 1970s design and considerable 21st-century comforts across its distinctive two-level layout.
From its top-floor vantage point, the open-plan kitchen and dining area command attention, expanding to the lounge, which enjoys a welcome air of privacy. The dining area is strategically positioned to extend onto a balcony, offering a supreme perspective of the scenic landscape and a bird's-eye view of the swimming pool.
The master suite also takes top-floor honours, enjoying the exclusivity of an ensuite, complemented by the exceptional, elevated outlook.
Descending the staircase, you're welcomed by dual living spaces suited to relaxation, flanked by two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and a laundry.
The lower-level living spaces spill effortlessly outdoors, with boardwalk decking between the swimming pool and in-built BBQ establishing an idyllic venue for alfresco dining and social gatherings.
The double garage with loft storage signals complete practicality, while two additional sheds provide ample room for storage and hobbies.
Beyond the living quarters, the property's spacious and sheltered acreage opens up opportunities for horses, horticulture, or simply expansive space for family recreation.
Situated in a desirable rural setting only five minutes from bustling Russley, which offers a direct link over to the airport, across to Hornby, through to Riccarton and beyond to the inner-city, this lifestyle property genuinely provides the best of both worlds, striking the perfect balance between presentation and location.
