Tucked away on one of Burnside's most quietly coveted streets, this substantial stone-clad residence offers approximately 400m² of living on a freehold 720m² section. Built with a sense of permanence, its solid construction, high-stud ceilings and thoughtful detailing lend the home a quiet, reassuring strength that is evident from the moment you step inside. This is a house designed to stand the test of time and hold a lifetime of family memories within its walls.
Yet for all its strength, it is the warmth that stays with you. Underfloor heating, double glazing, a cosy gas fire and a heat pump work in harmony to keep the winter chill at bay, while two sun-filled living areas and an open-plan kitchen and dining make the most of the long Canterbury summers.
Designed with family living in mind, the layout offers exceptional flexibility and space. Four spacious double bedrooms, including a ground-floor master suite with its own ensuite, are thoughtfully positioned to balance privacy, comfort and connection. Three family bathrooms and a large study offer versatility for growing households, guests or those working from home. A double internal-access garage and separate laundry quietly take care of life's practicalities.
Step outside and the everyday gives way to something a little more special. Tucked within the established grounds is your own Japanese-inspired zen garden, a simple, serene retreat of carefully raked gravel, sculpted stones and soft planting, designed to slow the pulse and quiet the mind. It is the perfect spot for a morning coffee, an evening unwind, or simply a stolen moment of stillness. Around it, sun-drenched paving, easy-care lawns and mature gardens offer sheltered places to relax and entertain through every season.
For families, the location truly speaks for itself. With Burnside Primary, Cobham Intermediate and Burnside High School all within walking distance, and zoning for each in place, it offers one of Christchurch's most sought-after education pathways from primary through to secondary school.
And daily life here is wonderfully easy. Jellie Park, with its pools, gym, library and expansive green space, lies moments from the door, while Northlands, Bush Inn and Riccarton Mall place supermarkets, cafés, dining and everyday conveniences within easy reach. The University of Canterbury, main bus routes, and convenient access to the airport and motorway complete a location that is both peaceful and exceptionally well connected.
Solid enough to rely on, warm enough to come home to and peaceful enough to restore you, this is Burnside family living at its very best. Combining generous proportions, enduring construction, sought-after school zoning and a truly special setting, opportunities such as this are increasingly rare.
