522 Two Chain Road Burnham, Selwyn District

With all the character and charm of yesteryear, yet with modern conveniences like a new fresh kitchen, this tidy 'cute as a button' 3-bedroom bungalow will melt your heart.

Just 5 mins' drive from Rolleston, & positioned up a long driveway, sits this enviable small lifestyle property - spanning 11045m2 (over 1 hectare), with room for a pony or a few other farmyard friends. The established garden feels like something out of a fairy tale and provides plenty of shelter and privacy around the in-ground heated swimming pool. There's also a wee in-built spa pool under the veranda, and a pull-out awning for further shade in the hot summer months, just perfect for R&R or entertaining.

The main dwelling offers an open plan living/dining area, with log burner & a modern kitchen complete with new oven, cooktop, and dishwasher. Off the dining area is the smaller of the 3 bedrooms, also suitable as a large home office. The further 2 double bedrooms are off the expansive separate lounge, which also features a log burner with stunning original wood mantel, & a heat pump for year-round comfort.

Today's modern families will appreciate having a main bathroom plus ensuite, & the laundry/utility room is just out the back door & also provides a third toilet, handy for when you are out in the garden or paddocks, & don't want to take the gummies off to come inside.

The icing on the cake is a self-contained studio, featuring an open plan bedroom with kitchenette & an ensuite.

A 3-bay open barn & a shipping container providing further watertight storage, plus free-standing 4 car garage completes this amazing package.
