A Staveley lifestyle like no other

Deadline sale (unless sold prior) 12pm, Thu 10 Sep 2026

Set within 7.23ha (more or less) in the heart of picturesque Staveley, this is a property that offers far more than a lifestyle property. With its unique combination of space, character, income potential and outstanding mountain surroundings, this well-known property is truly something special.

Staveley has become one of Mid Canterbury's most well-known rural villages, with an ever-growing offering right on the doorstep. The Staveley Cafe is next door, while the now famous Staveley Curling and Skating Rink and Sharplin Falls are all close by. It is a community surrounded by some of Mid Canterbury's most spectacular scenery, and this property is perfectly positioned to enjoy it all.

The 340sqm (more or less) barn-style home is grand in scale yet incredibly warm and inviting. Recently renovated, the interiors blend a homestead feel with alpine character, creating a home that is both impressive and wonderfully comfortable. With six bedrooms, including two with walk-in wardrobes and three with ensuites, there is plenty of room for family, friends and guests.

The main living space is truly impressive in scale, thoughtfully designed to accommodate both large gatherings and intimate evenings at home. Multiple seating areas create a wonderful sense of space while still maintaining a warm and inviting atmosphere, complemented by a generous dining area perfect for bringing family and guests together. Opening through a wraparound covered verandah to an expansive deck, the room captures spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and provides an effortless connection to the outdoors. Grand enough to entertain on a larger scale, yet warm and comfortable enough to feel like your own alpine retreat.

Heating has also been carefully considered, with wood pellet radiators throughout the home, two heat pumps, a double-door coal range in the kitchen and living area, and a striking feature open fire creating a cosy focal point.

Outside, the grounds are every bit as impressive. Mature hedging and established trees provide privacy, while a stream meanders through the property. The land is exceptionally well set up, with three large paddocks, three smaller paddocks, a horse arena and individual yards, making this an ideal proposition for equestrian pursuits or simply enjoying the space a property of this scale provides.

The property also offers exciting possibilities for those looking to create an income or hospitality-based lifestyle. Currently utilised as a Bed and Breakfast and Wedding Venue, there is a large wedding barn constructed by the previous owners, which has been successfully used for weddings over summer (further council consent may be required). Tucked away within the gardens is a two-bay outdoor pavilion, perfect for entertaining smaller groups or enjoying long summer evenings with family and friends.

Further improvements include a three-bay hay shed and tack room adjoining the arena, along with a double garage beside the home and additional storage.

This is a property that has to be experienced. Beautifully decorated, thoughtfully presented and surrounded by an incredible landscape, it is a home that has become well known in the area, with visitors consistently captivated by its character and charm.

Whether you are looking for a lifestyle property to enjoy with your family, a beautifully established rural escape, or the opportunity to create a unique destination for others to enjoy, this exceptional Staveley property offers the space, setting and versatility to make it your own.

Your Entry Into Lifestyle Living

Some homes ask you to imagine the lifestyle. This one simply hands it to you.

Almost entirely rebuilt and extended eight years ago, this warm and cosy home has been positioned — quite deliberately — to soak in every last drop of sunshine. Over-height stacker doors fold open to generous decking and views that roll away across the countryside, blurring the line between indoors and out. Double glazed and fully insulated throughout, it's as comfortable in the depths of winter as it is on a long summer evening.

At the heart of the home, open plan living, kitchen and dining come together effortlessly. A striking Belling stove anchors the kitchen, while the central island invites the kind of relaxed conversation that turns cooking into a shared occasion rather than a chore. A separate scullery with kauri benchtop keeps the everyday mess out of sight, and a second living space — call it a media room, call it a man-cave — comes complete with its own wet bar and bathroom, ready for movie nights, game days, or simply escaping the noise.

Step outside and the lifestyle credentials keep stacking up. A swim spa (staying with the sale) and a built-in BBQ area set the scene for long, easy weekends, while substantial solar investment — including solar batteries — brings real, ongoing value to daily living.

Three well-proportioned bedrooms complete the accommodation, headlined by a primary suite that basks in the morning sun. A private sliding door opens onto its own quiet corner — perfect for that first coffee of the day — alongside a walk-in robe and ensuite. There's genuine scope, too, to close off one wing of the home and create a self-contained guest wing or teenage retreat, should the need arise.

For those who create, work, or simply need a little more room to move, an outside studio offers space to paint, write, tinker or run a business from home. A container fitted with a ranch slider provides dry, secure storage — or perhaps the beginnings of a second office. Add a chicken coop and run, a greenhouse, internal access garaging, and an over-height dual carport, and the wish-list starts to feel very well and truly ticked.

Off-street parking is generous — plenty of room for the kids' bikes, scooters and everything in between — and the section is fully fenced with electric gates for total peace of mind. A dedicated entrance to the home sets the tone from the moment you arrive, while a separate laundry with excellent storage and dual heat pumps keep the practical side of life in check. And if you're still dreaming bigger, there's space here for extra shedding, or perhaps that inground pool you've always wanted.

All of this, in a location of absolute convenience — just five minutes to Kihikihi and under ten to Te Awamutu.

Come and soak in the rural bliss. Come and relish the urban convenience. Come and see what an entry-level lifestyle opportunity can really look like.

Ohui, a sanctuary for the soul

There are properties that impress, and then there are places that leave an indelible impression. Ohui is one of them.

Positioned high within an extraordinary coastal landscape, this remarkable private estate commands breathtaking vistas and a sense of seclusion that is increasingly difficult to find. At its heart sits an exceptional handcrafted residence, created with vision, artistry and an intimate connection to its surroundings. Substantial yet soulful, it is a home that feels entirely at one with the land.

Conceived as a deeply personal labour of love by its previous owner, every element has been considered to embrace light, outlook and atmosphere. Expansive living spaces transition effortlessly between indoors and out, complemented by handcrafted fireplaces, a swimming pool and beautifully conceived spaces for entertaining, retreat and reflection. A separate recording studio with its own accommodation adds another dimension, providing an inspiring environment for creativity, guests or private escape.

Yet it is the land that makes Ohui truly exceptional

Rich in local history and with connections reaching far beyond New Zealand, this has long been a place where people have gathered, created and connected. Festivals and wellness retreats have previously brought its open paddocks to life, while expansive grassed areas lead towards beach access and the remarkable coastline beyond.

Significant infrastructure is already established across a substantial portion of the property. An increasingly rare attribute for a landholding of this scale and calibre.

For its next custodian, the possibilities are compelling. An extraordinary private residence, executive escape, creative sanctuary or exclusive retreat centred around wellbeing and nature. For those accustomed to choice, true privacy, space and authenticity have become among life's greatest luxuries. Ohui offers each in abundance.

This is not simply a property to observe. It is a place to experience. Experience through the changing light, the landscape, the silence and the unmistakable sense of arrival.

Private, inspiring and utterly distinctive, Ohui represents an opportunity of genuine significance.

Properties can be acquired.

Places such as Ohui are discovered.

Want a beautiful property with room to move? Look no further! Our vendors are downsizing after absolutely loving bringing up their children here and enjoying everything it has to offer. Located only five minutes drive from Ohakune township, this 216sqm (more or less) home sits on a 1.21Ha property. The views are exceptional, with a huge view of Mt. Ruapehu to the north, and a magical view of Mt. Taranaki over rolling farmland to the west. And this property is surrounded by the neighbouring farm, so there'll be no neighbours cluttering the views and the peace and quiet.
This is a perfect family home that really is so spacious. Downstairs is the hub of the home and mostly open plan, with the kitchen, dining and lounge having a seamless flow. So warm, with both a wood burner and a heat pump. The huge master bedroom is off the lounge with a double wardrobe and ensuite. At the rear of the house is another bedroom and a mudroom, laundry and small bathroom which has entry from the backdoor, so practical after a day in the paddocks or the garden. Upstairs are three more generous rooms and another bathroom and separate toilet. And throughout, there's plenty of storage space.
The land is basically divided into three spaces. The front paddock and the back paddock are connected by a laneway on one of the boundary lines, and the middle is the home, garage and well established gardens. There are sheds and more sheds and so much more.
It's a lifestyle dream so close to town, it's on the school bus route, fully fenced, a wonderful family home and a great place to congregate and enjoy everything this stunner has to offer.
Come and see for yourself!

All the Boxes Ticked

When considering the idea of living in the countryside on a lifestyle block, there is usually a tick box buyers are checking off - a beautiful home for the family, ample space for the children, workshops for hobbies, a pool for leisure, and proximity to town.

Additionally, the potential to generate additional income is often a consideration. I'm thrilled to share that we've found a property that perfectly fulfils all these criteria.

Welcome to 92 Hill Road, Twyford, Hastings.

The home, built in the 1960s, has been a cherished family residence and orchard. While the orchard has been subdivided over time, what remains is over an acre of level, landscaped grounds. Three rows of plum trees will delight any hobby orchardist and keep the fruit bowl well-stocked. The property also includes a glasshouse, a potting shed, and raised vegetable gardens to support home gardening.

The house features three distinct living areas, encouraging communal spaces as well as serene zones for relaxation away from the bustling kitchen. The kitchen itself has been tastefully updated with engineered stone countertops and modern appliances. Bifold windows open to the pool and deck area, making entertaining guests effortless. Adjacent to the kitchen is a den/library room, offering a great space for children to keep their belongings separate from the formal living areas.

The formal dining room is ideal for shared meals, exuding a cozy ambience with its moody atmosphere and open fire. The separate lounge boasts an open Jetmaster fireplace and French double doors that lead to the pool, enhancing the seamless indoor-outdoor flow.

All three bedrooms are spacious doubles, and the master bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe that could easily accommodate the addition of an ensuite. Additionally, there is a separate studio making it perfect for accommodating guests, additional family members, or even serving as a dedicated home office.

Finally, the property offers the potential for additional income. There is a large ex-packhouse, office, staffroom, and implement shed that is currently leased for around $35,000 per year.

With its enviable RD5 rural postcode, this property is a standout and is sure to be popular.

Auction - From 11am, Thu 24 Sep 2026 (unless sold prior)
3 Deans Avenue, Christchurch

Simplicity meets substantial scale at this 6.77ha lifestyle property, where single-level living takes its place amongst spectacular rural scenery.

Well-fenced for grazing and established with shelter, the land draws further character from two natural ponds, including one that is stream-fed, and sweeping outlooks, giving the acreage both purpose and presence. Fenced into five paddocks with stock yards, the property is well-equipped for lifestyle farming.

Solid, low-maintenance brick construction fronts a four-bedroom floor plan of family-sized substance, where a modern interior favours clean lines and feature finishes.

Two living spaces give everyday life room to move, beginning in an open-plan kitchen and lounge, where generous bench space and a movable island let the layout shift from preparation to entertaining. The open-plan design also promotes seamless indoor-outdoor flow to the deck and entertaining areas. The dining room forms the central link between the two living zones, before the formal lounge shifts to a quieter pace, with a bay window bringing natural light and open views. A separate office/workspace provides flexibility for working from home.

A verandah draws the outdoors across the width of the home, stepping up to a sunlit central deck for dining before moving to a patio where a pizza oven puts fireside entertaining on the menu.

The four-bedroom, two-bathroom design elevates the master suite through an en-suite and private outdoor privilege, opening directly to a second deck where the spa pool puts panoramic scenery behind every soak.

Two heat pumps, a log burner and heat-transfer system give comprehensive coverage for comfort, before a separate laundry and raised planters carry the practical detail from indoors to out. The garden includes raised vegetable beds and a variety of established fruit trees, including plum, peach, apple and pear.

The sealed driveway puts a seamless finish on the arrival, with a connected single-car garage and workshop, keeping vehicles securely parked beyond the home.

The location and landscape protect the peace and privacy expected of rural living while keeping Rangiora about 10 minutes away, adding convenience to a spacious and striking lifestyle property designed for the long run. North Loburn School is an easy short walk away for families. Ashley Forest sits on the doorstep for biking and walking, while nearby rivers and swimming holes further enhance the lifestyle appeal.

Refined Lifestyle Living, City Convenience

Set amid the rolling green landscape of Ngahinapouri, just ten minutes to Hamiltons City boundary, with beautiful views to Mount Pirongia, this exceptional lifestyle property presents a rare opportunity to secure a residence of true distinction, crafted by Davies Homes who are known for their absolute attention to detail. A timeless and striking blend of light brick and dark linea beneath a bold gabled roofline gives the home immediate presence, while its elevated position takes in sweeping rural views across open farmland.

Offering a particularly generous 282sqm (more or less) footprint set on 4405sqm (more or less) of premium lifestyle land, this home has been thoughtfully designed and built for the sun, with four bedrooms and three living areas providing space for the whole family to spread out and enjoy. The two main living zones flow seamlessly together beneath vaulted ceilings, framed by expansive stacker doors that draw the outlook indoors, while a versatile third living area lends itself beautifully to a kids' snug or dedicated home office, adapting effortlessly to the way your family lives.

At the heart of the home, a matte black kitchen provides depth and intrigue in its tones, anchoring the room and including a substantial walk-in scullery. The cooler tones are offset by the light stone benchtops and a full-height window that frames rolling countryside and mountain views beyond. It's a space that strikes the perfect balance between lots of functional practicality without compromising on its aesthetic value.

The master suite is a retreat in its own right, generously proportioned with a walk-in robe and an elegant fully tiled ensuite. The remaining three bedrooms are all well-proportioned, with built in storage and lots of room for activities! Serviced by a generous tiled family bathroom with stand alone bath, the ebbs and flows of day to day living are easily accounted for here. A dedicated laundry adds further convenience, while the oversized 2.5 internal-access garage, offers both flexibility and a refined finish which is quite simply the baseline for this home.

Step outside to the covered Kwila decking, where a louvre system and stacker doors integrate this space into the home, a true extension of its footprint. Here, family gatherings, quiet mornings, and long summer evenings all find their natural home, looking out over manicured lawns and established, low-maintenance gardens.

Positioned amongst other quality homes in a tightly held and sought-after pocket of Ngahinapouri, this property delivers the best of all worlds. Just ten minutes from Hamilton City and an easy forty-minute drive to the surf and sand of Raglan, with zoning for excellent primary schooling nearby, the daily commute becomes seamless and convenience stands out as a defining feature of this exceptional address.

A compelling opportunity to secure a contemporary home of calibre in a location that continues to be in high demand — refined country living with city convenience, without compromise. Call Sarah today for a full information pack and to make your time to view.

Indoors, oak floors and soaring timber ceilings anchor grand living spaces heated by open wood fires, creating an intimate front-row seat to the immense natural beauty outside.
