<b>ELEVATE YOUR DREAMS</b>
<b>ELEVATE YOUR DREAMS</b> It is with absolute pleasure and delight that we bring to the market this enchanting property, and for the first time in over 60 years. Sadly, it is offered as part of an Estate Realisation yet with many, many happy memories of a childhood filled with adventure and simple pleasures. Perched just above the Christchurch Yacht Club in Moncks Bay the vista spread out below encompasses Shag 'Rock', the South New Brighton spit and then on across the bay to Christchurch Estuary and the Southern Alps. Framing these wonderful views is the house built by Richard Douglas, an architect who spent over a year labouring on the house he had designed for his family and where he would happily reside for nearly six decades. In immaculate but almost original condition Richard Douglas' choice of native timbers for his home ensure that a complete renovation of the house is an option for those who appreciate the design and aspect on the lower slopes. This beautiful, 3,086sqm site comes sheltered by extensive Macrocarpa Hedging and rises gently from the road up the eastern slope. Offering several platforms for building, the current house is on the lower platform with outbuildings, gardens and orchard areas above it. A variety of fruit trees are dotted around the expanse of this ¾ acre property along with the many other mature trees providing shelter to the myriad of birdlife which are evident throughout the day and early evening. Without neighbours to look in, it is easy to appreciate the privacy and solitude along with the massive potential this lovely property offers. For genuine sale, please call to arrange a viewing.
