Morning light filters across a 1584m² section that feels more like a private park than a backyard. With towering trees, thick hedging and generous lawns, this grand Rakaia home gives you space to spread out, breathe and live at a slower pace, while still keeping city conveniences within easy reach.
This lovely old girl has fantastic bones and is looking for a new owner to move in and see her potential. The spacious main living room is heated by a log burner, with doors opening out to the private verandah and gardens. Three generously sized bedrooms each have their own personality, while an updated bathroom and a separate laundry keep the day-to-day practicalities under control.
Step outdoors and the lifestyle really kicks in. Established shrubs and trees frame the property, giving it both privacy and presence, while the verandah is sure to be a popular place to sit with a coffee and a book on a beautiful sunny day. A covered hot tub at the rear of the property will be perfect for year-round soaking under the stars. There is a large shed for that much needed extra storage, or convert it into a teenage retreat, the options are endless.
Rakaia itself is all about community and connection, with the mighty river just minutes away, the coast close by, and Christchurch or Ashburton within an easy drive. It’s country living without cutting ties to the conveniences you need.
Homes on generous sections with this mix of character, space and extras don’t stay on the market long. Call Roberta Counsell today on 0272287843 and stake your claim on a lifestyle worth holding onto.
