What's around 1157 Garston-Athol Highway

Priced for Action - Don’t Delay

Framed by a classic white picket fence and surrounded by fragrant blooms and manicured hedges, this charming property feels like something out of a storybook. Picture yourself sipping morning coffee on the front porch, shaded by trailing vines climbing the trellis, watching the world go by - often joined by the cheerful company of a tui, adding birdsong to the peaceful rhythm of the day. Or, fire up the BBQ on the back deck as the summer sun stretches across the garden. Step through the powder blue front door, accented with rare coloured glass, and you’re welcomed into a home that blends nostalgic appeal with thoughtful design. A graceful arched entryway draws your eye down the central corridor toward the kitchen at the rear. The interior has been lovingly renovated to honour its heritage while embracing modern convenience. Light blue tones flow throughout the home, from the tiled kitchen splashback to painted accents and carefully chosen décor, creating a cohesive and calming aesthetic that feels both fresh and timeless. Natural light pours into the kitchen, making it a stunning space to prepare meals and gather with loved ones. The lounge features a cosy wood burner set against a Corten steel feature wall—adding warmth and a touch of rustic industrial flair. There are three generously sized bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom, offering comfort and functionality for everyday living. Tucked privately behind the home, a modern sleepout offers flexible space for whatever life calls for - be it a home office, creative studio, gym, or a comfortable fourth bedroom. Athol is a welcoming rural community with a relaxed pace and scenic surroundings. Just across the road from the property, you’ll find the Athol Shop - a café, general store, and barbecue restaurant offering a relaxed spot to unwind. The nearby Athol Gallery and Emporium showcase local art and handmade goods, adding to the town’s creative spirit. With Lumsden just 20 minutes away for everyday essentials, and Queenstown’s international airport just over an hour’s drive, Athol is a popular base for commuters seeking space, affordability, and a quieter way of life. With all the hard work already done, this beautifully presented property invites its new owners to simply move in, relax, and make it their own. If you’ve been dreaming of a slower pace and a home with heart, this is your opportunity to make it happen. Properties of this calibre are a rare find, so don’t hesitate - get in touch with us today.

Community minded with lots of expertise
