This very tidy three bedroom home on 4 hectares enjoys the elements of a great starter lifestyle or retirement lifestyle block - without the hefty price tag. Located approximately 8km from the Darfield township, and on the school bus route for both (Glentunnel) Primary & (Darfield) Secondary schooling. Built in 1993 this "Initial" home has 3 generous bedrooms, one bathroom, a separate toilet and the brand new carpet throughout has added a modern feel. The timber interior makes the house naturally warm but for those colder months a log fire on wetback keeps everything cosy. A new exterior paint job (including the roof) and freshly painted ceilings should give plenty of maintenance-free years ahead. One large main and one holding paddock allows you to add more fences to suit your needs, strip feed (partially electric fenced) or plant crops and maximise your land potential. The property has a large triple garage plus workshop with 3 phase power - perfectly suited for the home based business or keen hobbyist. Fantastic rural outlook to the hills, including views to Mount Hutt & the Torlesse ranges. Christchurch and the Airport are within a comfortable daily commute, with a range of outdoor activities (such as skiing, tramping, boating and fishing) all on your doorstep - including the golf club 5 minutes away! Whether you're looking to upsize or downsize, this property offers an easy care option to a range of buyers. Priced at $564,000 incl GST.
