Tui Estate Lot 9 — Luxury Home & Land Package, Canterbury, New Zealand
Eligible for the NZ Active Investor Plus (Golden Visa) Programme
Rarely does a property offer this confluence of natural grandeur, architectural excellence and investment credentials. Lot 9 at Tui Estate is an opportunity to build one of New Zealand's most exceptional private residences, in one of the Southern Alps' most coveted settings.
Situated on a 1.0136 hectare site within the exclusive Tui Estate community, this elegant single-level residence of approximately 600m² occupies an elevated position with uninterrupted views over the Rakaia Gorge, the surrounding Canterbury high country and the dramatic alpine ranges beyond. The architecture is composed to sit calmly within this landscape, its long, low profile blending naturally with the contours of the land while capturing the beauty of the surroundings in every direction.
The Residence
The home is arranged in a series of connected wings that form sheltered outdoor spaces and private courtyards. Generous proportions are paired with refined detailing to achieve a balanced, contemporary rural aesthetic that is both timeless and distinctly of this place.
At the centre of the plan is the Great Room, a striking living space oriented to frame panoramic mountain and valley views. This flows into a dedicated dining area and a beautifully finished kitchen with scullery. A separate sitting room, gallery style circulation, and a bar and library complete the principal living spaces, offering layers of both social and private retreat.
The accommodation wing provides a calm and private environment. The master suite is positioned to capture morning light and serene views, complete with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. A separate guest suite with its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe ensures comfort for visitors, while further bedrooms and a bunk room are supported by well considered bathroom facilities throughout.
Wellness and Outdoor Living
A dedicated wellness precinct elevates the experience of the home. The gym and wellness room connects to a sauna, ice bath and change facilities, with direct access to spa zones and a plunge pool. A fire pit anchors the outdoor living area, encouraging year-round enjoyment of the landscape. A large internal access garage with drive-through capability completes the design.
The Estate and Surroundings
Tui Estate occupies an exceptional position in Canterbury's Southern Alps foothills, just over an hour from Christchurch International Airport. The estate sits amid rolling high country where glacial rivers carve through ancient valleys and alpine peaks frame every horizon.
Within thirty minutes lie world-class outdoor pursuits: salmon and trout fishing in the Rakaia Gorge, championship golf at Terrace Downs Resort, skiing at Mount Hutt, and endless hiking and cycling trails through pristine wilderness. This is a landscape defined by purity, space and silence, where privacy meets accessibility and natural beauty unfolds in every direction.
Investment and Residency
Tui Estate is an approved investment under New Zealand's Active Investor Plus programme, commonly known as the Golden Visa. This makes Lot 9 an ideal vehicle for internationally mobile investors and families seeking a world-class private residence that also supports a pathway to New Zealand residency.
New Zealand consistently ranks among the world's most stable, safe and liveable countries. With a transparent legal system, strong property rights and an exceptional natural environment, it remains one of the most sought-after destinations for global investors and families seeking a secure and beautiful place to call home.
