Award-Winning Coastal Luxury
The dream of living on the Christchurch hills became a reality for our vendors once their children left home. They were seeking peace, privacy, and connection to a vibrant community - and found exactly that at 3 Inverness Lane, Redcliffs.
What they have loved most is the balance this home provides. Tucked away on a private lane, it feels wonderfully secluded, yet remains effortlessly connected. Warm, modern, and thoughtfully designed, the home is framed by ever-changing views they never tire of.
Positioned on a flat 800sqm corner site on the lower slopes, this exceptional four-bedroom home is sheltered from the easterly and perfectly oriented to capture the last of the setting sun. Sweeping, uninterrupted views stretch across the estuary, over the city and its new stadium, and all the way to the Southern Alps.
More than just a house, the property is a striking piece of architecture that sits effortlessly within its surroundings. Awarded Gold at the 2020 Registered Master Builders House of the Year, its quality and design are immediately evident. The exterior blends rich cedar, Eurotray, and natural stone - much of it excavated directly from the site - creating a rare sense of authenticity and connection to the land.
Inside, the approximately 300sqm floorplan centres on an expansive open-plan living space, enhanced by a raked ceiling and abundant natural light. A second living area, positioned just above, offers a more intimate retreat, complete with a gas fire and breathtaking outlook.
Designed to support year-round comfort, the home features a fully ducted heating system with discreet toe-kick vents, under-tile heating in key areas, and thermally efficient (Low-E, Argon) glazing throughout.
Nothing has been overlooked in supporting a lifestyle of ease and enjoyment. The kitchen is an entertainer's dream, complete with an induction cooktop, double oven, separate microwave, a dedicated beer and wine fridge, and premium Dekton benchtops.
Downstairs, the master suite enjoys direct access to the garden and those spectacular views. Waking to snow-capped Southern Alps in winter is a daily highlight, while the ensuite continues the luxury with a beautifully appointed shower overlooking the estuary, along with the added indulgence of a sauna.
Three additional double bedrooms enjoy excellent sun, lovely views, and seamless access to the low-maintenance grounds, and are serviced by a stylish family bathroom and a separate guest toilet.
The home effortlessly blends work, rest, and play. An integrated sound system flows through the kitchen, living areas, master bedroom, garage, and out to the expansive deck, which becomes the hub of the home in summer.
With seamless indoor-outdoor flow to a large deck and flat lawn, plus a triple internal-access garage and excellent storage, every detail has been carefully considered.
Now downsizing, our owners present a rare opportunity to secure a move-in-ready, award-winning home that stands apart from the rest.
Located about 15 minutes from the Christchurch CBD, just minutes from Sumner Beach, and zoned for Redcliffs School, the setting is exceptional. With Port Hills walking tracks virtually on your doorstep, 3 Inverness Lane offers a lifestyle that is truly hard to match.
