189 Leithfield Road, Leithfield, Hurunui

A delightful and sheltered 6.2520 ha (approx) lifestyle block brimming with character, this property offers an enviable mix of established hill and flats, neatly divided into four paddocks with two road entrances and solid fencing. It's a slice of country paradise with incredible value - so much land and two homes for a price that may just surprise you. Adding to the appeal are two dwellings, a three-bay implement shed complete with a workshop and even a games room, the original homestead garage with service pit, and an old asphalt tennis court waiting to be loved again. The more original of the homes offers two bedrooms, open-plan living with a log burner and heat pump, plus a sun-soaked full-length covered verandah that is just made for summer BBQs under the gaze of Mt Lyford. The second, more modern home is permanent material with double glazing, a stylish open-plan kitchen and living, two bedrooms, bathroom and laundry, all warmed or cooled by a heat pump and flowing beautifully to the outdoors through a ranch slider. With room to grow, space to play, and the bonus of two dwellings already in place, this property delivers flexibility that few lifestyle blocks can match. Imagine waking up to sweeping rural views, kids and pets roaming free, and weekends filled with projects, gardens, or simply relaxing on the verandah. For those with a taste for adventure, the Mt Lyford ski field is virtually on your doorstep, hunting opportunities abound in every direction, and when you return home you'll have absolute peace and privacy. Only a minute or two along the road, the Mt Lyford Lodge awaits - your local spot for great food, a friendly bar, and log-fire ambience. It's a lifestyle that blends comfort, fun, and affordability in one very rare package. This is the ultimate lifestyle opportunity - four bedrooms, two bathrooms across two homes, a fantastic collection of sheds, and plenty of land for pets, stock, or simply space to breathe. Whether you choose to enjoy it as it is, create a weekend retreat, or rent as short term holiday accommodation, the options here are as exciting as they are rare. Properties like this don't come along often - and the value speaks for itself.
