Capturing the essence of heritage sophistication, this turn-of-the-century homestead in West Eyreton seamlessly marries historic charm with contemporary finesse amidst a breathtaking 4-hectare landscape.

Guided by an inviting tree-lined driveway, this residence, dating back to 1905, reveals a treasure trove of period details, including artful fretwork, ornate ceilings, leadlight windows and spatial proportions.

Its transition to the modern era has been impeccable, with comprehensive yet respectful renovations incorporating upgraded electrical and plumbing systems, improved insulation, and diverse heating options, making daily comfort a focus without compromising its character.

The superbly appointed kitchen sets the stage for impeccable entertaining, with the expansive layout also offering practical spaces for dining, relaxation, and leisure.

Four oversized bedrooms are accompanied by a full bathroom and master ensuite, each incorporating a claw foot bath and separate shower.

A refreshed laundry and mudroom link naturally to the home and host another toilet, making it ideally equipped for post-outdoor activities.

The property's scenery and outlook are enriched by well-maintained garden beds, and the above-ground pool finds company in a covered spot, wired and ready for a spa pool.

Character-laden outbuildings complement the home and include an original shearing shed, yards, and a granary. Furthermore, there's a seven-bay concrete floor shed and nine bays suitable for calf raising.

In addition to the idyllic pond with its dual mai-mai for duck shooting enthusiasts, the site features fenced paddocks, a well, walnut trees, and an orchard teeming with fruit trees.

Located close to West Eyreton School, it is also a short drive from the river, Oxford, Cust and Rangiora, and a little over 30 minutes from central Christchurch.
