554 Barkers Road, Loburn, Waimakariri

The owners are committed to a sale and invite immediate inspection. Set on beautifully established grounds in one of North Canterbury’s most sought-after lifestyle locations, this exceptional residence presents a rare and genuine opportunity to secure a home of remarkable quality, scale, and versatility. At the heart of the home is a striking, highly functional kitchen featuring stone benchtops, a seven-burner gas hob, dual electric ovens, a steam oven, double fridge, wine fridge, and timber-look flooring. Complementing this is a fully tiled scullery with underfloor heating — effectively a second, beautifully renovated kitchen — allowing seamless separation between everyday living and entertaining. Sunlight fills the dining room, flowing through to the whiskey room, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere ideal for hosting or relaxed evenings at home. Comfort has been comprehensively addressed with ducted central heating, HRV ventilation, multiple heat pumps, and three fireplaces. Much of the home is double-glazed, and every upgrade reflects an uncompromising standard. The master suite is a peaceful retreat with his-and-hers walk-in wardrobes and a separate toilet. A private guest wing, positioned behind striking 300-year-old oak sliding doors, includes its own bathroom, while two further bedrooms are serviced by a beautifully appointed main bathroom. A separate laundry enhances everyday practicality. A large, fully lined office space with heat pump and kitchenette provides outstanding flexibility — ideal for a home business, games room, or potential future accommodation. This is complemented by a larger-than-average single garage offering additional storage or workshop space. Outdoor living is equally impressive. A heated saltwater pool anchors an exceptional entertaining zone designed for summer gatherings and celebrations. The expansive, park-like grounds offer not only tranquillity but real scope for income-generating opportunities, including boutique events, weddings, or glamping experiences (subject to consent). Supporting infrastructure includes a pool shed, a character-filled wooden farm shed, and a two-bay pole shed. The land is fully fenced and suitable for horses or stock, with established plum, almond, apple, apricot, and hazelnut plantings. A picturesque pond with pumping system, a newly constructed 50-tonne load-bearing bridge, and a brand-new septic system complete the offering. Properties of this calibre, in this location, with this level of investment, are seldom offered. The vendors are motivated, the groundwork is done, and a sale is expected. Private viewings are encouraged — act now to secure a lifestyle that truly stands apart
