6890 Christchurch Akaroa Road, Akaroa, Canterbury Discover the extraordinary

Autumn is a beautiful time to enter through the large wooden gates and wind your way down the curved landscaped driveway to pull up outside the stone and cedar residence that is Lochhill Homestead. Yes, you could be forgiven for thinking you have been transported to the French countryside.

Stepping inside the grand entryway, you will immediately be drawn to the stunning vistas of Akaroa Harbour before the home's contemporary elegance, abundant natural light and understated luxury draw you back inside.

Thanks to a timeless design and a meticulous renovation in 2019, no detail has been overlooked. The living options are numerous and offer great indoor-outdoor flows with more than 170 sqms of wrap around decking. The kitchen is classic minimalist, white and impressive. The main living area spacious and open with its own fireplace. The separate dining room can be opened up with bi-folding doors to flow seamlessly to the covered BBQ area, bar and outdoor table - a favourite spot for morning coffee.

Also on the main level, the primary bedroom is light and substantial with a large walk-in closet. Its spacious ensuite bathroom is the highlight - beautifully extravagant from the oversized double shower to the free-standing tub with ocean views and private deck for lounging.

Upstairs, on one wing is the Versace Room, as it sounds, a nod to the late designer. Across the hall is the third bedroom or office and a second bathroom.

Outside again, it's a short walk to the matching cedar and stone garage. Two cars and a small office occupy the ground floor with a large self-contained studio comprising bathroom and kitchenette completing the upstairs area. There is an additional garage currently housing jet skis off a second driveway on the property with a total land size of 6357 sqms. Water comes from a gravity fed spring into two 25,000L water tanks which is then pumped into the house to ensure excellent pressure.

For those who seek privacy, sanctuary and seclusion in our French Rivieria, this magical woodland setting with its stunning views are all you need. The added convenience of being just minutes from the village of Akaroa and just over an hour to an international airport complete the picture.

Congratulate yourself that you have finally found Lochhill Homestead. Your task now is to make sure you never let it go.
