Three dwellings and substantial shedding

Some properties offer a home. This one offers a way of life.

Set in the quaint farming village of Arapuni, this substantial lifestyle holding includes three dwellings and substantial shedding in a private position. Delivering on space, privacy and infrastructure on a genuinely rare scale — with the Maungatautari native reserve on your doorstep, Lake Arapuni around the corner, and rural vistas in every direction.

Arapuni village and its excellent coffee are ten minutes away. Pukeatua primary school sits directly across the road. Te Awamutu is a easy 25-minute run for the big shop, with Matamata and Putaruru equally accessible — country living, without the compromise.

Dual electric gates welcome you home, leading through an established grove of native trees — private, calming, and beautifully backlit at dusk — to a sealed turning bay set well back from the road.

The shedding here is a showstopper: parking for up to six vehicles, with overheight doors, an inbuilt hoist, three-phase power, garage carpet and room to spare for a truck. Built for cars, boats, machinery or business — this is shedding on another level.

The main residence, built in 2017, is brick, double-glazed and low-maintenance. Set amongst flat lawns with uninterrupted views to Mount Maungatautari and the surrounding farmland. Four bedrooms include a private primary suite with ensuite and walk-in robe, plus a dedicated office, two living areas opening to a substantial covered deck, and a kitchen with walk-in pantry. Ducted, zoneable heating and cooling, a Marantz sound system, and full app control of heating, cooling, security, sound and lighting make this a genuinely smart home — backed by a generator for total peace of mind.

A second dwelling, built in 2021 by Versatile, sits privately apart from the main home. Three bedrooms across the home and sleepout, two bathrooms, double glazing, ducted heating and cooling, and its own double garage — ideal for extended family, multi-generational living, or an income opportunity.

A self-contained studio cabin adds further accommodation, with living and bedroom combined, full kitchen and bathroom — and the flexibility to relocate if required.

Further farm-style shedding, a container, and four paddocks complete the offering.

Please note: the vendors' price expectations have shifted. Any previous price guidance should be disregarded — this is a genuine opportunity.

Privacy. Space. Infrastructure without compromise. Opportunities of this calibre in such a gorgeous rural setting do not come around often — contact us today.

High profile rural zoned site with large storage

This property presents a rare multi use opportunity suited to investors, business operators, or multi family living. Positioned on the main road heading south out of Eltham, the site offers high visibility and practical functionality.

The home includes a substantial deck and conservatory with views across rural land and Mount Taranaki, offering a private and comfortable residence separate from the commercial frontage.

Further down the drive is the original Villa. The home has solid structure and ongoing improvements including updated kitchen area, log fire, infinity hot water, and selected new windows and sliders.

All improvements sit on one 4,770sqm Rural zoned title. The combination of commercial scale buildings, modern living, and a character Villa provides multiple income streams, accommodation options, or a combined home and business setup.

Swannanoa’s sweet spot

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

Generous grounds, family-sized proportions, and an easy approach to country living combine across 5,783sqm to strike the sweet spot between space and simplicity.

Mature hedging and established gardens establish the property's sense of arrival, creating a level of shelter, peace and seclusion that's become synonymous with Wetherfield Lane.

Solidly constructed and spanning 230sqm, the clean-cut design revolves around an open-plan kitchen, dining area and lounge, with a wood burner introducing warmth and atmosphere before an adjoining living room shifts the dynamic, bringing another dimension to entertaining and everyday routine.

Outdoor living circles the open-plan living spaces, with a wraparound patio following the sun before overlooking a generous sweep of lawn where a playground, swings, playhouse and trampoline give family life its own head start.

Four bedrooms and two bathrooms deliver long-term capability, led by a master suite with bi-fold access to its own patio, a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. A family bathroom mirrors the same level of finish, while a dedicated laundry and carpeted internal-access double garage continue the home's functional focus.

Beyond, a paddock offers space for pets or a handful of animals, with a stock water race tracing the rear boundary and a new water tank adding further practicality to the property.

Walking distance from Mandeville Village, the local sports grounds and dog park, and with Rangiora and Christchurch both within comfortable reach, the location delivers the space of country living without losing touch with everyday convenience.

With their next build already underway, the vendors' commitment is clear, opening the door to one of the area's most complete family lifestyle properties.
