Where history and architecture combine
French Farm 262 Wainui Main Road
This wonderful small lifestyle property is set on an elevated
site with panoramic views out from French Farm,
overlooking Akaroa Harbour and historic Onawe Peninsula.
Originally the schoolhouse for the bustling French Farm settlement, this now blends
seamlessly with the modern, architecturally-designed home, which has been
extremely well-thought-out and fits perfectly within the environmental surrounds.
The sun-drenched three-bedroom, two-bathroom home features a wonderful open-
plan kitchen/living area opening to outdoor living, perfectly positioned to enjoy the
stunning vistas whilst providing a sunny, sheltered area where you can enjoy those
long summer evenings. The old school, which has become the lounge for the home,
has been used for social functions as it can seat up to 50 people, which could
provide business opportunities for functions, weddings or possibly a small
conference centre.
The presentation of the large 4,097sqm section is second to none. Planting of
native and exotic trees offer shelter and privacy from all directions, allowing an
incredible array of fruit trees and vegetables to be grown. The well-designed,
terraced gardens and sweeping lawns provide a truly relaxing and enjoyable place
in which to live.
