Make Your Fairytale Dream A Reality

-

Imagine falling in love at first sight with this elegant, spacious and handcrafte­d Canadian log home, as if it is straight from a fairy tale. The remarkable, scenic driveway not only features a flag pole - but also two rows of statue-like trees which guide you straight to the grand entrance of the house where you are welcomed inside through the stained glass and wrought iron front door and into the uplifting warmth of genuine timber and naked brickwork inside. The handcrafte­d wooden staircase, makes an admirable statement, as does the exquisite detail throughout the home which could also be described as a true art form. Every detail has been carefully considered and they simply don’t make houses like this anymore.

Built in around 1979, this immaculate, timeless beauty is set on a large 5321 square metre section where an expansive garden awaits you complete with fruit trees and tunnel house for growing your own vegetables. A magical house and garden which makes this a once in a lifetime opportunit­y, and it could be all yours in time for a dream Christmas and amazing 2020!

There is in an abundance of space for extended family and friends, or you could create a Bed and Breakfast in this eight bedroom palace, offering you many wonderful options. Picture yourself conjuring up real food and aromas in a modern kitchen with a stone bench top, finished with creative mosaic tile backdrops. Or have a quiet night in to chill out in front of the log burner on a winter night with a good book.

Imagine spectacula­r farmland and mountainou­s views, and relaxing with a divine morning coffee on sunny balconies, or having a lovely pinot noir on the deck in the evening before dinner. The home boasts a large number of bedrooms, three of which also include a built in robe, and the main with walk-in-robe. In total there are three lounges a dining room, three updated, modern bathrooms, four toilets, two heat pumps, and the perfect combinatio­n of handcrafte­d timber and modern aluminium joinery.

Both the tunnel house and greenhouse include irrigation, and the property has everything you could dream of to love life in a semi-rural environmen­t, only 40 minutes from Christchur­ch airport.
