Riverside Family Retreat

Step inside and fall in love with this beautifully designed contemporary brick family home, privately positioned down an exclusive lane in the heart of sought-after Tai Tapu. Built in 2011 and perfectly placed to capture all-day sun, this spacious and stylish residence offers the lifestyle so many families dream of, combined with the warmth and practicality needed for everyday living.

The gorgeous entryway immediately sets the tone, welcoming you into light-filled interiors with seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Multiple ranch sliders and bifold doors connect the kitchen, dining and living areas, along with two bedrooms, to expansive decking - perfect for entertaining or relaxing with family and friends.

At the heart of the home, the stunning kitchen stands out with its vibrant feature splashback, bar stool seating, generous walk-in pantry, and quality finishes sure to impress the chef of the family.

The home offers four bedrooms, including the master suite, which is a true retreat with a walk-in wardrobe complete with built-in shelving and a spacious ensuite featuring dual sinks and even room for a sauna. A study nook, second living area, two bathrooms, and two toilets in all provide flexibility for modern family living, while the spa bath in the family bathroom creates the perfect place to unwind at the end of the day.

The ultra-modern, separate laundry includes a practical benchtop ready for your front-loading washer and dryer, while thoughtful extras - such as LED lighting, a large linen cupboard, an attic with stairs, hardwired internet, full insulation, and double glazing - add comfort and convenience throughout.

Designed for comfort year-round, with both a gas fire and log burner for cosy winter evenings, two heat pumps provide efficient heating and cooling for every season.

Outside, the beautifully established gardens are bursting with peonies and hydrangeas, complemented by a lovely lawn for children and pets to enjoy on the fully fenced 660 sqm TC2 section.

The coveted triple internal-access drive-through garage is ideal for toys, tools, and projects, while additional off-street parking ensures room for everyone. Bonus chattels include security cameras, a shade sail, and TV with bracket.

Families will love the exclusive community feel, with access to a private tennis court and park. Being zoned for Tai Tapu School and only moments from the village cafés, restaurants, vineyards, shops, and beauty services, the location offers both convenience and charm. Enjoy nearby walking and cycling tracks, the Tai Tapu Hotel, local wineries, and the Halswell Quarry trails, with Lincoln and Halswell both within easy reach.

The vendors are heading south, creating an exciting opportunity for one lucky buyer to secure a future-proof home they will be proud to call their own. Homes of this calibre in such a tightly held location are always in demand, so act quickly and make your offer today before someone else does!

Agent

Heather Blennerhassett

Ray White Metro - A J McPherson & Assoc Ltd MREINZ

Licensed Real Estate Salesperson (REAA 2008), Member of the REINZ

As #1 in Canterbury, Heather is thrilled to be a successful member of the winning team at Ray White!

Heather has fully adopted the Ray White philosophy of listening to her clients and offering them choices in servicing their real estate needs. Her main objective is helping her clients reach their personal and business goals and caring for their investment. She is friendly, polite, an absolute professional, who is looking out for her customers’ best interests at all times.

Heather and her husband have re-located and are living happily in Christchurch. In her spare time, Heather likes to mountain bike, ski, hike, run marathons, camp, scuba dive, cook and bake, she is also an accomplished equestrian, and continues to try to not be so aggressive on the netball court - hobbies that she feels show off her motivation, determination, creativity and resolve. She has travelled the world many times, but still believes that New Zealand is the most beautiful country by far and that it is well protected by some of the best people she has ever met.
