Unique and Rare - An Opportunity Not To Be Missed!

Morning coffee on the kwila decking, soulful birdsong in the trees...just breath in the serenity and peace here. Set on a picturesque 1608m² section, this immaculate and rare Southbridge property pairs a fully renovated 1990s home with a separate modern one-bedroom dwelling, giving you flexibility that is hard to find.The main home centers around a light-filled living and dining area, where pitched ceilings add height and the layout keeps everyday living simple. The kitchen connects directly into this space, making it easy to cater, host, or keep things ticking along during busy evenings. Double glazing throughout, a log burner and a heat pump keep the home warm and comfortable during the cooler seasons.Two double bedrooms are positioned off of the hallway and are supported by a modernized bathroom boasting a spacious tiled shower. Set at the front of the property, the separate 32m2 dwelling, double glazed with gas hot water includes its own living/dining/kitchenette area and separate bathroom making it ideal for extended family, or extra income. Step outside and the lifestyle offering opens right up. The deck wraps the home and connects beautifully to the grounds, creating easy indoor-outdoor flow. The section is established and park-like, with fruit trees, mature leafy trees and gardens, expansive lawn, a tunnel house, woodshed, large dog run and a separate large powered workshop with cold running water. A single garage and generous off-street parking complete a setup that caters to both lifestyle and practicality.Living in Southbridge means being part of a genuine community, with Southbridge School, the local domain, playground, swimming pool and sports clubs all within the township, while Leeston is a short drive for supermarkets, cafes and Ellesmere College. Christchurch is an easy commute for work or weekends in the city. If you have been looking for something unique, rare and beautifully set up, Julie would love to show you through this property.
