There's something special about life in Leithfield.
A genuine little country village with its own sense of community and character, yet just minutes from Amberley's supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities - and within easy reach of Christchurch.
For buyers wanting to leave the city behind, or farming couples ready to downsize without giving up that rural outlook and sense of space, this is a very compelling alternative.
And the home itself is every bit as impressive as the setting.
Near-new, architecturally designed and beautifully finished, it offers an exceptional level of quality throughout. Cathedral ceilings create an immediate sense of space, while the generous open-plan kitchen, dining and living area connects effortlessly to a large kwila deck and the peaceful rural outlook beyond.
Four bedrooms provide plenty of flexibility, complemented by a beautifully appointed ensuite and family bathroom, tiled finishes, a log burner and a cleverly designed butler's pantry/laundry.
Outside, established trees bring maturity and character to the setting, while the beautifully restored historic barn adds another layer of charm and practical storage.
And then there's the outlook.
With neighbouring farmland stretching out beyond the boundary, you get that wonderful feeling of living in the country without the work, isolation or long drive into town.
There's birdsong through the trees and, when the sea is up, even the distant sound of the surf. Weekends can mean a picnic by the Kowai, a trip down to the beach for a fish, a round of golf, a game of bowls or a wander through the local farmers market.
It's the sort of place where life naturally seems to slow down a little.
The local school and historic Leithfield pub are close by, the beach is only minutes away, and Amberley is right on your doorstep.
Why settle for suburbia when you can have the best of both worlds?
A beautiful home. A rural outlook. A genuine village atmosphere.
Jump in the car, bring the family and come and experience Leithfield for yourself. You might just find your heart rate drops a few notches before you leave.
This is Leithfield living at its best!
