Owners Retiring to the City. Now's your Chance!

With Akaroa and our French Coast now a sought after holiday destination for Kiwis home and abroad thanks to the short commute to Christchurch and its international airport, we see buyers demanding a higher level of sophistication and quality for their homes of choice.

No. 3 Ribbonwood Lane exemplifies such an offering.

An Entertainer's dream with space for every generation, this home is nestled at the bottom of the laneway with mesmerizing views over the the Phoenix Palm and surrounding native bush to the ocean. You could be forgiven for thinking you were on a tropical island hideaway.

The home spans two storeys with a large double garage beneath and plenty of off-street parking for the cars, boat and toys. Downstairs, you'll find three spacious, light filled bedrooms, a bathroom and laundry.

The main level offers expansive living with a chef's kitchen, large dining area and ample living all of which flow seamlessly out to your second living area - the outside deck. Little wonder the nickname 'Party House' has been used often to describe this residence! The master bedroom and ensuite complete the picture upstairs.

Of special mention outside, is the tropical decked hideaway located at the bottom of the garden, complete with pizza oven. A wonderful sheltered, private retreat and an ideal spot for relaxed summer parties for extended family and friends.

The 1000 sqm property has been thoughtfully landscaped by our owners to create a magical oasis with minimal upkeep - and there is plenty of space for the younger generation to take advantage of.

Our savvy owners also had the foresight to purchase the 807 sqm section next door (5 Totara Drive, to the right of the property) and this will be offered for sale with the property at auction (won't be sold separately).

This beautiful home has been a joy for our owners to live in for 15 years and with a move over the hill imminent, the opportunity now presents itself to find the next guardians.

The property will be sold by auction at 98 Moorhouse Avenue in Christchurch on Thursday, 29th October (if not sold prior).
