Built in 2012, the substantial 266sqm home combines timeless schist and Rockcote cladding with spacious, functional living. Cleverly configured for family living, guest accommodation or potential hosting opportunities, the home offers three bedrooms positioned across separate wings for added privacy.

At one end of the home, the master suite provides a peaceful retreat complete with a large walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. The opposite wing features two self-contained bedrooms, each with ensuites and a basic kitchenette setup, ideal for extended family, guests or independent living arrangements.

The heart of the home centres around generous open-plan living spaces, with a striking dual-sided open fire creating warmth and ambience to both lounge areas. Large living spaces flow seamlessly outdoors to a sheltered verandah complete with outdoor open fire, allowing year-round entertaining and relaxed evenings overlooking the property and view beyond.

On the sheltered southern side of the home, a schist BBQ entertaining area provides another inviting outdoor space to gather with family and friends.

The grounds are a standout feature of the property, with established low-maintenance gardens, lush lawns, a varietal fruit tree orchard, tunnel house and hen run all contributing to a true lifestyle experience. The property is fully fenced and well set up for stock with three paddocks, each serviced by troughs and irrigation.

Practical improvements include a substantial 12m x 8m shed with three doors, ideal for vehicles, machinery or workshop space. Sustainability has also been considered with 24 solar panels installed, while potable water is supplied via a shared bore with one neighbouring property.

Properties of this calibre in Earnscleugh are tightly held and rarely available. Offering premium lifestyle living in a highly desirable location, this is a special opportunity to secure an exceptional Central Otago property.
