REAL ESTATE
Private, peaceful
Purau rural retreat
52 Purau Port Levy Road, Purau Valley, Lyttelton Harbour
Price: $850,000 plus GST if any
2 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 2 living rooms | 13ha | Listing Number: 9736
Seldom do properties such as this come
to the market but retiring vendors of 30
years have decided the time has come.
This is a wonderful location, peaceful
and private with wonderful bird song. Set
on 13.1369 hectares or 32.5 acres approx.
this charming 100m 2 home is both easycare
and warm. Commanding beautiful
views of the Purau Valley, Purau Bay and
Mt Evans, if you are looking for peace and
privacy then this one could be for you.
Set well off the road the house has
two double bedrooms, two living areas,
lovely decking and one bathroom. North
East facing and sheltered with a garage/
workshop adjacent to the house. The
garden is easy care and the land is a
mixture of pasture in five paddocks for
grazing, some bush and about 250 approx.
30 year old pine trees ready for harvesting.
The property is well fenced and has an
excellent water supply, a small stream and
a natural pond. Further down the driveway
there is a set of yards, a four bay implement
shed, a tractor shed with high stud and a
large high stud workshop with three phase
power. There is also a semi derelict house
from about the 1930s on the property.
This is an idyllic location and perfect for
a retiring farmer, someone wanting to get
into the firewood business or someone with
a portable mill to make use of all the trees.
Purau Bay is approximately 30 minutes’
drive from Christchurch, making it a
highly desirable destination as it is so
useable being close to Christchurch.
Properties in this lovely valley and by such
a safe swimming beach are defying all the
odds and selling fast generally as they come
up very seldom.
Excellent swimming, boating, walking
and stunning sunsets on the hills, quick
and easy access to Lyttelton via the
Diamond Harbour ferry (approx. five
mins), local shops, cafés and bar make this
a fun filled place to visit. Properties here
make an excellent investment and Purau
Bay and valley is a truly magical place to
live.
