Extensively updated and extended!
We see a lot of homes. A LOT. And every now and then, one stops us in our tracks. 862 Oxford Road is one of them! It's got cool factor, character and a renovation that makes you do a little happy dance when you walk in, all wrapped up in approximately 2ha of Fernside country living. Think a beautifully extended and upgraded home, seriously good outdoor living, a pool, fantastic shedding and enough space to enjoy the country lifestyle without signing yourself up for a second job. And here's the kicker around 80% of the home is new or renewed! From the re-roof and full reglazing to new wiring, switchboard, fire with wetback and hot water cylinder, right through to fresh flooring, carpet, curtains and new decking, the heavy lifting has been done. Now that's our kind of lifestyle! What's inside: We LOVE this home - the personality is in the details. Old doors have been cleverly repurposed as seriously cool barn doors, chunky solid-wood shelving brings the walk-in pantry to life and as you move from room to room, the handcrafted details shine through. But this home isn't just about good looks, there's serious substance behind the style, too. With extensive upgrades throughout, including new wiring, a new switchboard, full reglazing and a new fire with wetback, there's plenty to appreciate beyond the pretty stuff. Then the stacker doors open up to the covered outdoor entertaining area, framed by huge solid-wood posts overlooking the pool and suddenly you're picturing summer afternoons, friends arriving and everyone spilling outside. Add the clever bedroom configuration and the warmth of the Metro fire in the main living area, and it's a home that feels warm, liveable and seriously inviting. What's outside: Outside is where the lifestyle really kicks up a gear. The new decking and covered entertaining area overlook the pool and established landscaped gardens, setting the scene for kids bombing into the water, you relaxing in a recliner with a good book, or pottering in the garden and picking the fruit and veges ready for tonight's BBQ. Then the cool factor ramps up another level with the 2.5-car garage, powered two-bay barn, woodshed, potting shed, another two-bay shed with tack room and animal shelter. Whether it's animals, gardens, hobbies or simply having room for all your stuff, this place has the infrastructure to back up the lifestyle. Why you'll love living here: Space, freedom, fresh air and room to do your own thing without the feeling that the property owns you. The renovation is done, the big-ticket upgrades are taken care of, and the cool factor is firmly intact. That just-right 2ha gives you plenty of lifestyle without going overboard, while the extensive improvements mean there's less to tackle and more time to enjoy it. It's cool country living, with character to spare and a whole lot of the hard work already behind you. Honestly? We think you’re going to love it! Have questions? Would like to view? Whatever you need, please just ask!

If you've been after space, views and something brand new, this one's worth a look. Set down a private back section in Burnt Hill, it backs straight onto the Waimakariri Golf Course, looks out to the Southern Alps, and the river is only minutes away. The 137m² home has been built by a well-regarded local builder, and the quality shows. The kitchen is a standout, with custom handmade benchtops and a breakfast bar, and it opens through to the dining area. There's a separate living room when you want a bit of peace, and both the dining and lounge lead out to a large deck, perfect for summer evenings with those mountain views. There are three bedrooms, two tiled bathrooms and an office that would work just as well as a nursery. Outside you've got 4 hectares with good shelter from Leyland cypress along the boundary and an established pine hedge. It's in two paddocks now, with room for a third or an orchard if you'd rather. The two-bay lockable pole shed is handy for the ride-on, tools or the toys. Water's on the Oxford Rural No. 1 scheme with 2 units a day and 45,000L of storage, and Oxford is just down the road for everything you need.
