736A Cashmere Road Halswell, Christchurch City

There is something quite special about a home that feels a world away from the everyday, yet remains so well connected. Privately tucked away at the end of a long driveway, this north-facing property enjoys an elevated position beside the Te Kuru wetlands, with expansive views across the landscape towards the Southern Alps.

Held by just three families since the 1960s, this is a property with a rich history. Its enduring appeal is reflected in the established grounds, where generations of planting have created a wonderfully mature, peaceful and private setting.

Apple and pear trees sit among the established gardens, while towering willow, elm, oak, gum, macrocarpa, copper beech and cherry trees provide shelter and shade. With their natural, park-like character and abundant birdlife, the grounds invite you to slow down, wander and enjoy the changing seasons, with the added pleasure of homegrown fruit along the way.

Inside, the generously proportioned home offers five bedrooms, a study and sunny living spaces designed to make the most of the setting. A modern, well-appointed kitchen connects seamlessly with the dining area and flows through to two separate living areas, creating a welcoming hub for everyday family life and entertaining. Doors open to the balcony, providing a lovely connection between indoor living and the surrounding landscape.

The flexible layout offers plenty of options for families at different stages of life. A substantial downstairs bedroom and second bathroom provide a comfortable space for teenagers, parents or guests, while also offering scope for a third living area, home office or hobby room. There is room here to adapt the home to suit your needs, both now and into the future.

Adding further appeal is the separate, self-contained granny flat with its own entrance. Ideal for extended family, visiting guests or those seeking additional independence, it is a valuable feature that opens up a range of possibilities.

A double garage and generous off-street parking complete the practical picture, although it is the space, privacy and connection with nature that truly make this property stand apart.

Beyond the gates, the Te Kuru 109-hectare stormwater and wetlands reserve feels like a natural extension of your own backyard. With private gated access to more than 14 kilometres of walking and cycling tracks, you can step straight into an expansive natural environment and enjoy the changing scenery, abundant birdlife and peaceful surroundings.

Set within the sought-after semi-rural surrounds of Halswell and Kennedys Bush, the property offers a rare balance of country-style living and everyday convenience. Halswell School, local amenities and the popular Halswell Quarry Park, with its walking tracks and beautiful gardens, are all close at hand, while Christchurch city is approximately 20 minutes away.

For those seeking generous space, mature gardens, versatile accommodation and a genuine connection with the outdoors, this is a special place to call home. Rich in history and offering a lifestyle that is increasingly hard to find, it presents an opportunity to enjoy your own private
