Sandhill Gardens Retreat, close to Rangiora, Woodend ,Kaiapoi and Pegasus.

Large modern villa with ranch sliders from all living areas to access wrap around verandah and beautiful established gardens and lawns. Enjoy the amazing sunsets and night sky gazing. Nearby Woodend beach is great for swimming in summer and the woodland beach reserve trail can be walked or biked from Woodend all the way through Pegasus to Waikuku. The home's quiet rural setting with established trees and gardens, contains an abundance of natives and introduced species including mature Rhododendrons, Camelias, Pin oaks, Maples, Dogwoods, flowering Cherries, Roses and Hydrangeas, and provides a haven for native birds. Listen for the tui , fantail , quail and pheasant's call. With a rural outlook on all sides , but 5 minutes from the main highway and just 5 - 10 minutes from Kaiapoi, Woodend and Rangiora townships. The best of both worlds!

Beautiful & Peaceful Home
Our family had a wonderful week stay at this beautiful farm house. The home had all we needed and was very clean. The host made sure we had everything we needed and was especially kind. One of our favorite things was making a nightly fire and daily visits to the horse that also lives on the property. We would highly recommend this property.

Lovely spacious family home with all the necessary amenities. Close proximity to the city but definite countryside feels. The garden is gorgeous and was our highlight! Adored sitting out on the wraparound porch with a book and cup of tea.
