Property Description

Please NOTE : the sale price is PLUS GST if any.

The proud owners of the multiple award winning Racecourse Hill want to pass the reins over for the next episode in the story of this magnificent landmark homestead. Whispers of Tara from Gone with the Wind pique the imagination when descending the magnificent staircase to the grand foyer. Survey the estate with its 25 hectares on horseback meandering past the private chapel over the lane lined with oak trees on your return to the stables. An Olympic size equestrian arena will prompt you to keep those horses fit. The orchard is a joy in late summer with copious fruit trees laden with apricots, peaches, plums, apples and more. You can build up a sweat on the tennis court then cool down in the nearby inground pool.

Designed by the inestimable architect, Cecil Woods, in 1912 and almost completely rebuilt a century later utilising much of the original kauri and rimu timber to ensure its character authenticity is not diminished. Winner of Canterbury Heritage Award and Category Winner of Gold and Supreme award wins in the Registered Master Builder 2016 House of the Year in the Renovations Category. The home is fully insulated and a variety of heating options are provided with logburners, ducted heat pumps and some underfloor heating.

There are other strings to this bow to be considered. Entertainment on a very grand scale could be accomplished with ease. Multiple living and dining areas, two modern kitchens, one specifically commercial and armed with all the modern conveniences to ensure your function would be the utmost success and which might even give you the opportunity to utilise the property with a more commercial aspect.

Family and friends are well catered for with the multitude of generously proportioned bedrooms and bathrooms. Each room has its own essential character and charm and wonderful views of the mature trees and gardens surrounding the homestead. Both the ground and upper storeys open to balconies and terraces, spaces for peaceful reflection, lunch or high teas or just somewhere where you can be you

Graze some livestock and plant some crops. Grow grapes on the hillside and create your own vintage. There is so much on offer for you to choose how to spend your time.

Now is the time for a new dawn and new purpose for Racecourse Hill. The owners are keen for a resolution so now is your time to act. Contact me to arrange a viewing.
