63 River Ridge Road,, Tarras, Central Otago, Otago

The dream location calls for a dream house and if that means constructing it in Canada with the finest timber, dismantling it, shipping it and then establishing it on the terraces of the Clutha River, so be it.

A recently granted 180 day Resource consent expands the income potential from this property for those looking for such options as Lifestyle or Home and Income.

On a completely private 20-acre estate stands a home like no other. Hand crafted from Canadian Western Red Cedar by world-leading log home builders, this magnificent property stands as a testament to its extraordinary setting, a home where quality is a non-negotiable with imported premium fixtures, including tapware from Mayfair, tiles from Italy and high-end finishes throughout.

Venture inside and you discover a haven that has been carefully crafted to meet your changing needs and wants. The main dwelling has been designed to offer itself as a home with five bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms yet has the option to secure a guest wing as a completely separate two-bedroom space, complete with its own bathroom and kitchen, providing an entirely self-sufficient area for family or guests.

Year round, the magnificent "Grand Room" forms the centerpiece of the home with a roaring log fire to complement the underfloor heating that runs throughout the house. Opening up into the adjoining dining room and the kitchen with multiple ovens and high-end appliances, there's no better spot for multi-generation gatherings and large party entertaining.

If you need to escape for a moment to yourself, or if the kids need space of their own, a second living room and a games room will keep everyone happy. On warmer days and nights, enjoy the 360-degree views from one of the two outdoor entertaining areas, deliberately positioned to guarantee shelter, whatever the weather. From the hot tub you can soak up the endless skies and ease your legs after a day in the great outdoors.

And what an outdoors it is! Whatever your tastes, you can be sure they will be accommodated. The 5-bay garage, each of them up to 10m wide, has intentionally planned rear barn doors for high clearance, so there's virtually no boat or toy that can't be securely stored onsite for ready access.

The property offers boundary access to the Clutha River, one of New Zealand's best when it comes to brown and rainbow trout fishing. The property is an easy drive to Lakes Wanaka, Hawea and Dunstan, and is only 40 minutes to the base of Treble Cone and 30 minutes to the base of Cardrona ski field.

If it's hiking you're into, Mt Aspiring National Park and the Lindis Conservation Area can be seen from the terrace with the Grand View Range a short walk from your eastern boundary. If you prefer something a little more turbo-charged, the world-renowned Highlands Motorsport Park is only half an hour up the road. 63 River Ridge Road is close enough to enjoy all of the action & facilities of Wanaka yet nicely positioned to get away from the hustle & bustle if desired.
