Space, Lifestyle & Small-Farm Potential
Offering space, privacy and genuine versatility, 67 Wards Road is an inviting lifestyle property set on approximately 5.55 hectares, ideally suited to those looking for more than just a home.
The comfortable three-bedroom home has been thoughtfully enhanced, with three generous double bedrooms featuring built-in robes and a welcoming open-plan living and dining area at the heart of the home. The wrap-around verandah and multiple outdoor entertaining areas provide wonderful spaces to relax, entertain and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
Recent improvements include a 13-panel solar power system with battery storage, new log burner, HRV and heat-transfer systems, new lino flooring, new well pump and new water filtration system. Attic storage, a carpeted garage, additional garage-door insulation, secure deadbolts and an alarm add further practicality.
Outside is where this property really comes into its own. The well-fenced 5.55 hectares offers genuine versatility for those wanting to establish a small farm, hobby farm or equestrian lifestyle. There is plenty of room for horses, sheep, goats, alpacas or other lifestyle animals, along with space for gardens, grazing, recreation and enjoying the outdoors.
An established three-acre pine block provides excellent privacy and shelter, while the two-bay barn and ancillary sheds offer valuable space for equipment, feed, vehicles, hobbies and general farm storage.
With an asphalt driveway, established trees, open land and a range of existing improvements, this is a property that offers the opportunity to create the lifestyle you've been looking for-without giving up the convenience of being close to Rolleston.
Whether you're dreaming of a small farm, an equestrian escape or simply having the space and freedom to enjoy a more self-sufficient lifestyle, 67 Wards Road offers the land, infrastructure and versatility to make it possible.

What is rental yield?
Gross rental yield is a year’s rent as a share of what the property is worth: $835 × 52 weeks = $43,420, against our estimate of $1,220,000. It is before rates, insurance, maintenance, management and vacancies, so what an owner keeps (the net yield) is lower.
How we worked this out
| Evidence | Points to | Counted |
|---|---|---|
| 2 rentals advertised nearby each adjusted to this property’s bedrooms and value | $633 | 3% |
| From its value what rentals in the area typically yield | $840 | 97% |
We read this property as a house with 4 bedrooms. 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.
What could you build here?
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.
