Privately positioned on 5.1 hectares in sought-after Fernside, this substantial 262m² (approx.) home offers space, sunshine, excellent shedding and a wonderful rural outlook, all just five minutes from Rangiora's shopping precinct.
Built in 2005 and thoughtfully positioned to capture all-day sun, the spacious single-level double-glazed home provides an ideal environment for families seeking room to grow, work from home, or simply enjoy the benefits of a genuine lifestyle property.
At the heart of the home is a generous north-facing open-plan kitchen, dining and family living area, complete with a wood burner for winter warmth. The well-appointed kitchen features double ovens, an induction hob, dishwasher and plenty of practical workspace.
A separate formal lounge connects with the main living area, providing flexibility for families, while doors from both living spaces open to an expansive outdoor entertaining area, sheltered gardens and sweeping lawns.
With established fruit trees and a substantial concrete outdoor dining table included in the sale, there's plenty of opportunity to entertain, relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
Accommodation is equally generous, with four double bedrooms plus a dedicated office, making working from home a practical option. The primary bedroom features a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, while a separate laundry and double internal-access garage add everyday convenience.
For those with horses, livestock or simply a love of the outdoors, the land and infrastructure are a real highlight.
The 5.1-hectare property comprises fertile, free-draining land divided into seven well-fenced paddocks, complete with electric fencing, self-filling water troughs, and small stockyards. A shared driveway provides access to the rear of the property, keeping stock well away from the road.
Additional features include:
• Impressive 216m² (approx.) four-bay pole shed, with three open bays and one enclosed bay featuring a concrete floor and roller door.
• Generous shed stud height, ranging from approximately 3.6m to 4.2m
• Domestic well with submersible pump and pressure tank
• 25,000-litre rainwater tank collecting from the shed roof for garden watering
• Established vegetable gardens and productive fruit trees
• Woodland area containing approximately 100 pine trees, offering a future supply of firewood, and the sheep love the shade
• Stock water available from an irrigation ditch running through part of the property, subject to applicable rules
• Oasis Clearwater aerated wastewater treatment system
The location is another compelling advantage. Highly regarded Fernside School is just a short drive away, while Rangiora's extensive shopping, cafés and amenities are only minutes from home.
Christchurch is also within easy commuting distance, making this an attractive option for those wanting a rural lifestyle without feeling isolated.
Nearby sporting facilities, the Waimakariri River, cycling tracks and horse trails further enhance the recreational opportunities available.
Privacy, sunshine, views towards the hills, excellent shedding and productive land – all within minutes of town.
