4.39ha of gardens, grazing and views
Only minutes from Akaroa, yet a world away from the hustle and bustle, this stunning 4.39ha (more or less) lifestyle property offers the perfect balance of peace, privacy, and practicality. Flat to gently rolling land provides endless possibilities, with multiple fenced paddocks ideal for grazing sheep or cattle. The property also enjoys access from Long Bay Road, where elevated terraces cascade down the hillside, creating a beautiful and functional landscape.
The established grounds are a true highlight, featuring beautifully manicured gardens, meandering pathways, secluded seating areas, and a thriving orchard filled with an array of fruit trees. An extensive vegetable garden completes this self-sufficient haven, with the hardest decision each day being where to sit and enjoy your morning coffee.
Inside, the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area creates a warm and inviting hub of the home, with every window perfectly framing the picturesque gardens and surrounding countryside.
Upstairs are two generous bedrooms, along with a hidden door leading to a spacious roof cavity -- an ideal children's hideaway, hobby room, studio, or simply an abundance of additional storage. A double garage provides further space for vehicles, a workshop, or extra storage, completing this exceptional lifestyle offering.

What is rental yield?
Gross rental yield is a year’s rent as a share of what the property is worth: $865 × 52 weeks = $44,980, against the council valuation of $1,290,000. It is before rates, insurance, maintenance, management and vacancies, so what an owner keeps (the net yield) is lower.

We read this property as a house. Rentals advertised nearby count most when they are close, recent and alike; the more of them there are, the less the area’s bond figures count. Bond figures are rents agreed in new tenancies, from Tenancy Services, placed within the area by how this property’s council valuation compares with similar homes there.

Building consents
We hold no building consents for this property yet. The council may hold records we have not seen.
If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.
We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.
Zoning and hazards
What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.
The hazard maps could not be read just now.
Contaminated land
Councils keep registers of land used for activities on the Hazardous Activities and Industries List (HAIL) — service stations, timber treatment, orchards, landfills. A listing records how land was used, not that it is contaminated: most sites have never been tested.
Environment Canterbury's Listed Land Use Register can be searched property by property on its own site, but is not published as data.

See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
