Enter your own slice of paradise down a wide treelined driveway to your executive residence. Carrickmannon Homestead designed by Julian O’Sullivan and built by Des Millar Construction sits in the favoured Winchmore farming district approx. 8kms from Ashburton. As you enter you are greeted into an entrance way that leads you via bifold doors to the established gardens, the family kitchen and living areas or the accommodation wing of the household. Entering the kitchen and dining area you will be impressed by the high stud ceilings incorporating American White Oak. A fully functional impressive kitchen with separate scullery is the heart and soul of this home allowing the new owners to entertain and host and be immersed in all that is happening at this impressive residence. From the living area you are greeted with extensive views overlooking the garden and property, with a log burner in place for those cooler evenings. A separate lounge allows for some space and privacy if and when required. You will be impressed by the size of the master bedroom with a separate full bathroom and large spacious walk-in wardrobe. There are a further three spacious double bedrooms all with their own stacker door access to a northwest facing patio. There is also the added benefit of a large office that would provide the ability for the new owners to work from home if required.
The outdoor entertainment area has dual access from the lounge and family living areas to a large deck encompassing an electric louvre roof system that allows you to cater for entertaining friends and family in a magical setting taking in a panoramic view of the Southern Alps. This residence has a wet room with toilet to the rear of the property allowing separate access from the main entrance way and leads into a sizable laundry area with extensive storage options.The property has an oversized double internal access garage that enables plenty of space for parking and storing off other items.
All this comes with around 49ha of effective farmed land and your own sanctuary adjoining the river. The land is a combination of quality Lismore shallow silt loams and Mayfield silt loam soils that can be irrigated from the 54m bore and 34 lit/sec ground water consent currently used for dairy heifer grazing.
This is truly an impressive property that warrants your attention and would make a superb residence for the discerning purchaser.
