The Farmstead is a substantial family house conveniently located on the outskirts of Canterbury. Built in 2005 in the vernacular style using mellow bricks and weather boarding, the property sits well within an appealing environment of neighbouring, traditional converted farm buildings.

The accommodation radiates off an impressive vaulted hall at the centre of the house. The bright well-proportioned reception rooms include a sitting room arranged around a deep brick fireplace with a lovely bressumer beam above. Double doors lead to a superb conservatory. There is a generous kitchen/dining room with a wide opening continuing through to the family room. This loosely open plan space provides excellent day-to-day family living space. Doors from the family room open to the terrace and garden. Additionally, there is a generous formal dining room as well as a useful study.

Five bedrooms are situated off the superb, galleried first floor landing. The master suite has a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom. The exceptionally well appointed bedrooms include three further en-suite bedrooms, including a guest room with a dressing room. Bedroom 5 is served by the family bathroom set just across the corridor. In addition, a sixth bedroom with en-suite shower room is found on the ground floor; access via the large utility room gives independent access to this room, if desired.

The property is found in the farmstead setting of Renville, between Bridge and Canterbury. Bridge offers an excellent range of local services, including a well-regarded primary school. The property is in a Conservation Area and a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Canterbury offers an extensive range of shopping, educational and leisure facilities with well-regarded schooling in both the state and private sectors.
