The Southern Alps might steal the first glance, but there is plenty more to 156C Horndon Street.
Set across an impressive 250sqm (approx.) on 1,246sqm (approx incl ROW), this immaculately presented home combines generous proportions, practical extras and an open rural outlook that gives everyday life a little more space.
At the heart of the home, the open plan kitchen, dining and living area is light and generous, with large windows bringing in plenty of natural light and doors opening directly to the deck. The kitchen brings plenty of presence, with dark cabinetry, a tiled splashback and a substantial central island, alongside the practical inclusions of an induction hob, electric oven and walk-in pantry. A separate lounge adds valuable flexibility for family life.
Darfield winters are well accounted for with a log burner, heat pump, heat transfer system and double glazing, while underfloor heating in the bathrooms adds another welcome layer of comfort. Fourteen solar panels, prioritising water heating first, help take the sting out of the dreaded power bill.
Accommodation includes three bedrooms, with the master enjoying a walk-in robe and standout ensuite, where soft beige floor-to-ceiling tiling, a generous glass shower and rainfall head create a calm, polished finish. The family bathroom features a bath, while a separate toilet and dedicated laundry keep the everyday layout nicely sorted.
The internal access double garage goes well beyond somewhere to park the cars, with carpet, attic storage and an EV plug adding genuine usefulness.
Outside, the generous deck stretches across the rear of the home, creating an easy extension of the living areas and a great spot for morning coffee or summer BBQs. The grounds are established with plenty of lawn alongside vegetable gardens, fruit trees, berries, a sizeable garden shed and three rainwater tanks.
Beyond the back boundary, neighbouring farmland currently opens towards the Southern Alps and the locally known ‘Sleeping Beauty’ silhouette, bringing a distinctly rural feel while Darfield’s shops, schools and everyday amenities remain conveniently close.
