Deadline Sale by Private Treaty closing 12pm, Mon 9 Nov 2026
3 Deans Avenue, Christchurch
Located approximately 30 minutes’ drive from Christchurch Central, this well-positioned approximately 20-hectare lifestyle block offers an exciting range of possibilities for those looking to create a productive rural property, lifestyle retreat or new venture.
With a water allocation of up to 8.3L litres per second, there is excellent potential to establish irrigation and support a range of horticultural or agricultural activities. Previously certified organic for 30 years growing vegetable crops, these versatile soils have proven their potential.
A late-1960s three-bedroom Summerhill stone home sits in a well-sheltered and private setting. The welcoming living room features polished floorboards, while the recently updated 2024 kitchen and tiled bathroom take care of some of the major improvements.
There is ample shedding and infrastructure, including a double garage, two-stand woolshed and a range of implement sheds. A large tunnel house, previously utilised for commercial vegetable production, is also included in the sale.
For those dreaming of a more self-sufficient lifestyle, the foundations are already here. A mature orchard produces an abundance of fruit, including kiwifruit, citrus and pip fruits, while a substantial vegetable-growing area provides plenty of opportunity for home production or further commercial development.
The well-fenced and sheltered paddocks are suitable for a flock of sheep, a small herd of cattle or even a pony for the kids.
Whether your vision is self-sufficiency, horticulture, livestock or developing a new rural enterprise, this property offers the land, water, infrastructure and established production areas to get you started.
The hard work has already begun — now it’s time to decide which direction you want to take your new venture.
