Set on approximately 1.1ha (2.7 ac approx.), the property offers privacy, panoramic views and a shimmering salt-water, heated pool - perfect for family fun or relaxed entertaining enjoyment.

The modern home is easy to live in, with four double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a spacious, light-filled open-plan kitchen and living area where family life naturally comes together. Comfort is assured year-round with an internal wood fire plus airconditioning unit.

Outdoor living is the highlight with the pool as the standout feature, ideal for long summer afternoons and poolside entertaining. As the sun sets, gather around the outdoor fire and soak up the stunning uninterrupted views.

Low-maintenance and quietly private, the home features a triple garage with internal access, providing generous space for vehicles, equipment, and recreational gear. An abundance of fruit trees enhances the feeling of space and self-sufficiency, while ample room for a few animals completes the relaxed rural lifestyle.

With the vendors having purchased elsewhere, motivation is clear and the opportunity is genuine.

Living here is all about lifestyle and the many benefits this lovely home and land have to offer.

174 Nuttall Road is ideally located at the junction of Old Coach Road and Nuttall Road, with easy access from Dominion Road. Completely hidden from the road by a grove of mature trees, the property offers exceptional privacy. The gently winding driveway leads you through the trees to the main entrance of this delightful architect designed home, where a wonderful surprise awaits. With no other houses in sight, you can enjoy your home and gardens in total seclusion.

Clad in board and batten timber with a Coloursteel roof, the home is thoughtfully built across three levels. The ground floor features the kitchen, living area and the largest of the three mezzanine levels, all accessed from a spacious open foyer. This level also includes a modern bathroom and laundry. Doors open out to outdoor living areas, lawns and established gardens, creating seamless indoor outdoor flow.

The living area is warm and inviting year round, with both a woodburner and a heat pump providing comfortable, flexible heating options through the seasons.

A few gentle steps lead from the foyer to the bedroom level, where loft style spaces open onto north facing decks that capture the day’s sun. This level is serviced by a family bathroom and a separate toilet, creating an ideal family layout.

Above the double garage and accessed from the bedroom level, is a large games room or ideal teenage retreat. Despite the generous proportions throughout, the home retains a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that immediately feels like home.

The fenced paddocks are animal proof and include water and shelter, making them well suited for a horse or livestock. Near the dam is a recently built animal shelter, completed last year, which can be enclosed if desired. It provides excellent protection for animals and also serves as a peaceful spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings.

Fruit and nut trees are plentiful, with heritage apple trees, feijoa, and citrus well established on the property. Additional buildings include a glasshouse/potting shed and a double bay implement shed, supporting both lifestyle and practical rural living.
Nuttall Road is conveniently located within a 10 minute drive of Mapua Village and approximately 20 minutes from central Richmond. A nearby school bus pickup point adds further convenience.

Viewings are by appointment only. There is much to see here, so allow yourself plenty of time to explore and fully appreciate all this special property has to offer.

Privately positioned at the end of a lane way and immaculate in every respect, this 1.69-hectare Prebbleton property captures the lighter side of lifestyle living only minutes from village convenience.
Introducing the property, the Mt Fuji cherry tree lined driveway creates a seasonal welcome each year.

The layout is carefully layered with strong outdoor connections and defined zones for daily living, entertaining and downtime, allowing the home to function comfortably at full capacity.
Everyday life centres on a high-stud open-plan living room, complemented by a separate dining area, while the games room provides a social setting, where a built-in bar, timber panelling and window seat give the space genuine character.
Granite benchtops, a Smeg oven, a six-burner gas hob and a scullery define the kitchen's capability, with patio-facing windows allowing entertaining to effortlessly extend outdoors.
Scaled to accommodate larger gatherings, the patio is not only central but spacious and sheltered, framed by landscaped grounds that give this country setting its picture-perfect finish.
Accommodation spans five bedrooms and three bathrooms, led by a master suite with a walk-in robe, en-suite and outdoor access, while a second en-suite bedroom is well suited to guests or teenagers.
A purpose-built office, separate laundry, and internal-access triple garaging with attic storage are matched by comprehensive comfort, including hydronic underfloor heating, a diesel boiler, and radiators in every bedroom.
Beyond the home, the land is practical and productive, with a fully fenced paddock, town water supply, a separate double garage with workshop, and a permanent container with lean-to, while established vegetable gardens and a wide variety of fruiting trees provide seasonal reward from the land.
Just minutes from Prebbleton School and village shopping, with Halswell close by and an easy run into the city, this property keeps everyday life convenient while firmly holding to its country footing.

Multigenerational masterclass

Auction - From 10am, Sat 21 Feb 2026 (unless sold prior)
3 Deans Avenue, Christchurch

A masterclass in multi-generational living, this Ohoka residence carries family living forward in a long-favoured lifestyle location.
A clearly defined dual-wing design gives the 308sqm residence its foresight, allowing families to live with genuine independence while protecting privacy under one roof.

The main wing is given over to a generous living domain with a neatly appointed kitchen, three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a master suite with an en-suite and walk-in robe, while the internally accessed double garage is upgraded with a new door, reinforcing everyday ease.

Designed as a fully independent counterpart, the second wing incorporates its own kitchen, two living zones, a bathroom, and a generously sized bedroom, creating a natural home for extended family or long-stay guests.

Built from brick, the classically appointed framework gives way to a raft of recent upgrades that lift the standard and elevate the comfort.
Detail-led improvements include fully tiled bathrooms with porcelain surfaces, two new toilets, fresh carpeting in the main living area and garage, selective repainting, and tailored window treatments.

Efficiency is sharpened behind the scenes, with an extensive solar power system reducing day-to-day running costs and a new under-bench hot water cylinder improving kitchen performance.

Further outbuildings add another layer of versatility, with a separate office or studio offering valuable separation for those working from home.

Set across 5,000sqm, the grounds are beautifully established and naturally sheltered, delivering privacy and presence without the upkeep of a traditional lifestyle block.

Tightly held for its cul-de-sac position and located within walking distance of Mandeville Village, sports grounds and the dog park, this is an Ohoka property built around function, foresight and families planning beyond the present.

Boundary lines are indicative only.

A Rare Blend of Land, Lifestyle and Opportunity

Easthaven is a distinguished country homestead set across 27.31 hectares of productive, irrigated land in the heart of the Teviot Valley. Offering scale, privacy, and genuine scope, this is a property that delivers both immediate lifestyle appeal and long-term opportunity.
Positioned to capture the sun, this substantial residence enjoys a prized north-facing aspect, overlooking a spring-fed pond alive with birdlife, fertile river flats, and the dramatic backdrop of The Nobbies, renowned for their rugged terrain and scenic river corridors.
The home offers five bedrooms. The master bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe and private ensuite, while a second bedroom is also ensuited, ideal for guests or extended family. The remaining three bedrooms are well supported by a central family bathroom, creating a practical and well-balanced layout.
A separate laundry, toilet, and a two-person office add everyday practicality, Year-round comfort is assured with a wood burner, diesel radiators throughout, and double-glazed joinery.
The grounds surrounding the home are beautifully established and carefully maintained, with manicured lawns, mature gardens, productive vegetable beds, and an abundance of fruit trees including quince, apples, pears, nectarines, peaches, and plums.
The 27.31 hectares of land is well configured and divided into five well-fenced paddocks, predominantly serviced by fixed-grid or K-line irrigation. Irrigation water is pumped from the spring-fed pond and supported by a substantial ORC water right of 65 litres per second (22,000 cubic metres per month), providing excellent water security. In recent years, the property has been utilised for barley cropping and finishing cattle and lambs.
Infrastructure is extensive and well suited to a property of this scale, including a five-bay shed, workshop, tractor shed, horse shed, sheep yards, and a one-stand outdoor shearing shed.
Beyond its current use, the property presents exciting future potential. Located just moments from the Clutha River and the popular Clutha Gold Cycle Trail, there is genuine scope to explore Bed & Breakfast or Farmstay opportunities, with discussion already around converting one of the character sheds into accommodation.
Adding further depth to the property, Easthaven is believed to have been built in 1885 and was once home to respected Roxburgh doctor Dr J.R. Gilmour. Thoughtfully refurbished over time, the homestead retains its original character while offering the comfort and functionality required for modern country living.
Whether your focus is farming, lifestyle living, or a strategic blend of both with tourism potential, Easthaven is a rare and remarkable offering - a peaceful, private oasis in the heart of the Teviot Valley and a truly special place to call home.
