Not many people – even locals – know where Canton Road is in Murchison and that’s exactly part of the charm. Set on a quiet road on the outskirts of town, this special lifestyle property is tucked well back from the street, wrapped in a beautiful variety of established trees that provide privacy, shelter, and a real sense of seclusion.
Built in 1995, the home has a timeless feel thanks to its recycled brick cladding, giving the impression it has always belonged to the landscape. Inside, space and comfort abound, with three very generous bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two separate living areas. Both living spaces open out to decks and patio, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living, while the open-plan kitchen and dining area offers a wonderful sense of light and space. The entrance foyer is a solarium that would be perfect for all of those sun-loving plants.
Heating is well catered for with two log fires, creating a cosy atmosphere through the cooler months.
The gardens are a standout feature – well established and thoughtfully planted with a blend of natives and cottage-style plantings. Sweeping lawns and a treed walkway add to the peaceful, park-like setting.
Designed with self-sufficiency in mind, the land includes a fully enclosed vegetable garden, numerous prolific fruit trees (including a kiwifruit vine), and a free-range orchard where the chickens happily roam. The paddocks are ideal for a few sheep or the kids’ ponies, and the property benefits from two separate water supplies.
Completing this lifestyle package is a large four-bay shed, with two bays secured by roller doors, plus a single garage with a studio room at the rear – perfect for hobbies, work from home, or extra storage.
A rare opportunity to secure a private, peaceful lifestyle property just minutes from Murchison, yet a world away from the everyday.
