THE DEAL

A home with history, character and a setting that is exceptionally hard to replicate. Built circa 1950 for Lady Rutherford, widow of Nobel Prize-winning scientist Lord Ernest Rutherford, 116 Dyers Pass Road was designed by renowned Christchurch architect Richard Harman to embrace its elevated position and sweeping views.

The main level offers two double bedrooms, a bathroom and separate toilet, complemented by a beautifully renovated kitchen designed with family living in mind. Generous living and dining spaces open to a balcony overlooking the gardens, creating an elevated backdrop for everyday life and entertaining.

Ideal for extended family, friends or guests, while also presenting an opportunity for additional income. Zoned for Cashmere High School and positioned among the established homes and leafy surrounds of Cashmere, this is a property where the combination of location, outlook and lifestyle speaks for itself.
