Discover Canterbury. We call it home too. For all things real estate, think PB.

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 the kind of renovation that makes you do a little happy dance when you walk in - all wrapped up in approximately 2 hectares of Fernside country living. Not too big, not too small, just right. 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. 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 walk from room to room, the hand-crafted details shine through. Then the stacker doors open up to the covered outdoor entertaining, 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, very liveable and seriously inviting. What’s outside: Outside is where the lifestyle really kicks up a gear. The covered deck overlooks the pool and established landscaped gardens, setting the scene for kids bombing into the pool, 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 hard work is done, the cool factor is firmly intact, and that just-right 2ha gives you plenty of lifestyle without going overboard. It’s cool country living and honestly? We think you’re going to love it! Have questions? Would like to view? Whatever you need, please just ask!

Set on 1.34ha on the edge of Mayfield township, this unique property offers a refreshing take on country living - simple, self-contained and surrounded by amazing mountain views. At its heart is a Russley Portables Tui Central Tiny Home, thoughtfully designed for comfortable everyday living, combining standard specifications with a selection of upgrades. The open-plan interior centres around a practical island bench, with gas cooking and gas hot water, while a Little Cracker log fire creates a cosy place to relax. Dish TV is also in place for added convenience. The generous bathroom is a real talking point, complete with an incinerator toilet, standout stone sink and sliding barn doors. The good-sized bedroom offers full-wall storage and sliding-door access outside. Designed with off-grid living in mind, the property has an off-grid grey water tank and solar power supported by four 120-amp batteries, with capacity to add another as your needs evolve. Outside, there’s plenty to inspire. The property is on a town water supply, with water cleverly distributed around the property to service the home, gardens and strategically positioned stock troughs. Shade houses and a glasshouse will appeal to keen gardeners, while storage and a 6m x 5m shed add practicality. A separate corrugated-clad outbuilding provides excellent additional storage or could be transformed into something more suited to your lifestyle — a studio, hobby space or whatever suits your lifestyle. The land is currently divided into one large paddock and a smaller paddock, with amazing views across the surrounding countryside. There’s something wonderfully uncomplicated about this property. Space to breathe, room to grow and the freedom to create a lifestyle that works for you. With power and fibre at the gate, there's also further flexibility if you choose to design and build further down the track. Alternatively, simply enjoy the freedom of simplicity and tiny home living, with the option to relocate or sell the mobile home in the future. The options are endless, and that’s part of the appeal. You’ll leave feeling calm, inspired and already imagining the possibilities. Come and experience it for yourself - this could be your off-grid escape.
