luxury real estate for sale Rangiora, New Zealand

Some homes follow convention. This one never intended to. Inspired by Mediterranean travel, 30 McLeods Road is the realisation of an extraordinary vision. Designed by architect Philip Kennedy and originally commissioned by a Christchurch builder with a passion for architectural form, the residence evolved over many years into one of Canterbury's most distinctive homes. A scale model of the original design, still held at the property, remains a lasting reminder of the ambition behind the project. Positioned within a peaceful rural setting near Sefton, the home unfolds across three interconnected towers and five levels, where scale, elevation and sweeping coastal views define the living experience. A sculptural spiral staircase forms the heart of the home, while a lift provides effortless access throughout. Its architectural significance was later recognised through its feature on Grand Designs New Zealand. Designed for both everyday living and memorable entertaining, the residence offers generous accommodation, multiple living areas and a central courtyard inspired by traditional Mediterranean planning. A separate two bedroom apartment, complete with its own kitchen, living area and bathroom, provides exceptional flexibility for guests, extended family or independent living. Four internal access garage spaces, generous off street parking, a dedicated wine cellar and a collection of distinctive character spaces, further reinforce the home's remarkable individuality. More than a home, 30 McLeods Road is the expression of an extraordinary vision, where architectural ambition and enduring craftsmanship have created a residence unlike any other.

Some properties are simply houses. Others become part of the lives lived within them. Burnt Hill is one of the latter. Set within an expansive private landscape, this substantial Canterbury estate has been a place of family, country living, entertaining and retreat. There is an inherent sense of permanence here. Not manufactured or staged, but created through the combination of land, architecture, mature surroundings and the years that have passed within them. The scale of the property is immediately apparent, yet it never feels excessive. The residence has been conceived for living rather than display, with generous spaces that move easily between family life, entertaining and quieter moments. A beautifully appointed library provides a particularly memorable retreat, while the broader home offers the flexibility to accommodate both everyday life and occasions worth gathering for. Beyond the house, the landscape opens into a private rural environment with room to breathe, explore and pursue the things that matter to you. Established grounds, expansive views and substantial ancillary buildings add further depth to a property where there is space not only for living, but for hobbies, projects, animals, guests and whatever the next chapter might bring. And perhaps, unusually, the opportunity extends beyond the land and buildings themselves. The vendors are prepared to offer the property as a complete lifestyle, including an extensive collection of chattels and the animals that have formed part of life at Burnt Hill. For the right buyer, it presents the rare possibility of arriving not simply at a new home, but into an established way of life. Perhaps that is what makes Burnt Hill so difficult to categorise. It isn't simply a rural property. It isn't simply a family home. And it isn't simply land. It is a place with the scale and substance to become whatever its next owners want it to be. After years of being home to one family's story, perhaps it is time for someone else to write the next chapter. Burnt Hill is ready.

Some homes reveal themselves immediately. Others ask you to slow down. Beyond the mature trees and gently winding driveway lies a property set on approximately 5.46 hectares that has quietly evolved over generations. Surrounded by established gardens and open lawns, this welcoming country residence possesses a rare sense of peace, privacy and permanence that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Rather than demanding attention, it rewards those who take the time to appreciate it. Every mature tree, garden path and outbuilding contributes to a setting that feels deeply connected to its landscape, creating a home that is both authentic and unmistakably Canterbury. Complementing the residence are three substantial outbuildings that have quietly supported both creative and home based businesses over the years. Offering remarkable flexibility, they provide space for workshops, studios, craftsmanship, storage or those seeking the freedom to work from home. They are not simply sheds; they are spaces where ideas have been realised, businesses have grown and creativity has flourished. It is this quiet versatility that makes the property so compelling. Equally suited to family life, creative pursuits or simply enjoying the space that surrounds you, it offers a lifestyle that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Some properties are remembered for their architecture. Others for their location. This one is remembered for something much more difficult to create. A feeling. From the moment you arrive beneath the trees, there is an unmistakable sense that this is a place where life has unfolded naturally over many years, and where the next owners have the opportunity to continue that story in their own way.

Drawing inspiration from Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s iconic Barcelona Pavilion, this residence celebrates the essence of modernist architecture - open space, purity of form, and an enduring dialogue between structure and landscape. A creation by David Ponting and Matthew Fitzgerald, the home is a triumph of precision and material mastery, its refinement placing it in a league of its own. The use of Himalayan schist is both deliberate and poetic, its texture and tone uniting the architecture from the gateway through to the heart of the home. A glass-walled gallery encases a striking central pool, framed by schist walls that anchor the residence to its natural setting, while overhead, a floating sail roof amplifies its sculptural elegance. A palette of Brazilian stone, wood-grained concrete, and American white ash, evokes understated luxury, illuminated by shifting light from broad glazing and skylights that animate the interiors throughout the day. Spanning 809 sq m more or less (as stated in supplied council consent documents), the home offers four en-suited bedrooms including a master suite of rare calibre, complete with dual vanities and his-and-hers amenities. Living zones transition seamlessly outdoors to 283 sq m more or less (as stated in supplied council consent documents) of terraces designed for private entertaining, while intelligent CBUS automation, underfloor heating across 11 zones, and a media room with concealed projector deliver technological sophistication and comfort. Set across four hectares of manicured land, this residence is a landmark in contemporary architecture. An extraordinary expression of craftsmanship and vision for those who appreciate the finest in design and scale.

Property files: https://www.propertyfiles.co.nz/property/CHR10356 There comes a point where ease becomes just as important as space. Where weekends are no longer spent maintaining a large property, but enjoying the freedom to travel, dine out, walk the city, and simply lock up and leave without a second thought. Yet for many, townhouse living has never quite delivered the privacy, comfort, or proportions they were truly looking for. That’s what makes 237 Salisbury Street so compelling. A boutique collection of just four executive residences, each home offers between 167 - 170 sq m of thoughtfully considered space, complete with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, internal-access garaging, and the rare luxury of private lift access across all levels. Designed with downsizers and lifestyle-focused buyers in mind, these homes deliver the comfort and functionality of a traditional home, paired with the simplicity of modern inner-city living. Future-proofed for long-term ease, the inclusion of residential lifts allows owners to age in place without compromise, while generous proportions and extensive storage ensure everyday practicality remains front of mind.

Crafted by Rosefern Homes, these residences have been designed to a premium specification with a focus on enduring quality, low-maintenance living, and timeless design.

Positioned on the edge of Christchurch’s revitalised CBD, you are moments from New Regent Street, Riverside Market, Te Kaha Stadium, the Avon River trails, cafés, restaurants, boutiques, and everyday conveniences. It is a location increasingly sought after by buyers wanting connection, security, and lifestyle without sacrificing quality.

Permanent material construction, private outdoor spaces, and internal garaging combine to create homes designed not only for today, but for years to come. With only four available, opportunities of this calibre within the central city remain increasingly difficult to find. Unit 1 — $1,445,000 Unit 2 — $1,425,000 Unit 3 — $1,425,000 Unit 4 — $1,525,000
