This stunning architecturally-designed four bedroom, three bathroom home, with the remarkable backdrop of Mt Richardson and Mt Thomas, has dramatic cathedral ceilings, polished concrete floors and excellent flow to the verandah, through multiple stacker doors.

The Homewood cast-iron woodstove, with wetback, is brilliant for cooking and heating. The spacious kitchen has an under-bench oven, gas hobs as well as induction hobs and a Cleanaire heat transfer system to circulate the heat, which at the same time keeps the insulated pantry cupboard at a low temperature. Other features include two separate attics with access ladders, power points everywhere, smart wiring and infrared sensors.

Support buildings include a 9 metre deep five bay barn, two bays of which are lockable. One includes a small separate room in which the pump and solar controllers are and also houses the security camera screens and tapes for the five camera CCTV system. As well as this there is a 32 m2 woodshed and a similar size greenhouse. Twenty solar panels keep the power bills low.

The property is immaculate, with an orchard and berry garden, including blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, grapes, pears, apples, hazelnuts as well as many herbs. This area has dripper lines for the summer, but because of the moisture holding capacity of the Eyreburn and Waterton silts growth of grass and trees is excellent. The fences are of a very high standard and include electric wires with multiple isolating switches. The pond is a nice feature and it even includes a jetty and a drain should you wish to empty it.

Situated only 3kms from the hub of Oxford village, with nearby amenities at hand of schooling, hospital, shops, cafes, a farmers market and community facilities (including gym and swimming-pool) - while outdoor enthusiasts will love the proximity to the Ashley Gorge, Mount Oxford, the Mountains and the Waimakariri River... and only 30km to Rangiora.

Deadline sale 4pm 7th December.
