This exceptional property presents a rare opportunity for lifestyle buyers to secure a versatile farmlet of approximately 12.3860 hectares in the highly desirable Fernside district. Whether you're looking for a spacious lifestyle block, a development opportunity, or a long-term investment, this property offers multiple pathways to value.
A key feature is the council-approved resource consent for subdivision, allowing the creation of three separate lots, each with its own road frontage. Buyers may choose to:
- Complete the subdivision and sell two bare land titles, and retain the home on a separate lot;
- Retain the existing home and build new on one of the proposed lots, then on-sell the existing home;
- Or simply hold the property for the future, given its proximity to Rangiora and strong demand in the area.
The existing home is privately positioned in a sheltered corner of the property, designed for comfortable indoor-outdoor living. It features:
- A spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area, recently renovated
- One bedroom downstairs and a large second living room, master bedroom with Jack and Jill bathroom and two additional bedrooms upstairs
- Multiple heating options including heat pumps, a wood burner, and a Rayburn stove with radiator heating
- Expansive decking and a spa pool for outdoor enjoyment
Surrounding the home are well-maintained lawns, fruit trees, and older sheds offering practical storage solutions.
A double garage, separate office, and ample parking provide flexibility for remote work, hobbies, or a home-based business.
The location is ideal for lifestyle enthusiasts, with nearby amenities including:
- Horse riding trails along the Cust Main Drain
- Mandeville sports grounds
- Fernside's highly regarded primary school
- Rangiora township just minutes away
- Easy commuting distance to Christchurch city
