<h2>Beauty on Blencathra</h2>
<b>Cast your eyes toward the Hills and see where Westmorland ends, and the beautiful tussock terrain of the Port Hills meanders gently toward Kennedy's Bush, ...here you will see Blencathra.</b>
There sitting perfectly on the 1,032 m² terraced section is a 394 m² home crafted to provide you with 180 degrees iconic views of Canterbury from Sea to Southern Alps. All this is complimented by established gardens lovingly nurtured over the last 12 years. The ease of access to generous garaging is great, but you can really indulge yourself when parking up your boat in the custom built boathouse. Tucked away in the garage is the workshop that can offer a multitude of varying uses to the new owners.
This future proofed home even by today's standards is an enduring testament to the current owner's foresight. It is solidly built with extra insulation, double glazing and a design to take full advantage of passive solar heating and cooling. Furthermore the log fire with wetback maintains the ambience of old style living.
Open plan interconnected living spaces downstairs are characterised by superb indoor/outdoor flows that bring the beauty of the setting into the home by means of oversized bay windows. Upstairs there are five bedrooms and two bathrooms. The ensuite has a spa bath with a view. A deck runs nearly the length of the upstairs and can be accessed from two of the bedrooms another opportunity to bring the outside in.
Westmorland is increasingly becoming the neighbourhood of choice for perceptive buyers. What sets this destination neighbourhood apart is the ease of access, the superb views and the zoning designation for many of Christchurch's more desirable schools.
Imagine having breakfast with the Bellbirds and closing your eyes at the end of a busy day to the fading brilliance of a Canterbury sunset.
