Elevated. Evolved. Exceptional. Instantly recognisable for its profile and profound aesthetic appeal, Millstream has undergone a complete architectural evolution, with its execution and finish cementing its place at the forefront of Christchurch residential design.

Following their restoration of the Britten Stables, the owners approached this 1,795sqm property with the same ambition, delivering a home that has earned acclaim at the highest level. Guided by W2 Architecture, the 895sqm (approx) layout was cleverly reconfigured to create a cohesive living environment where interior and exterior spaces operate effortlessly across the seasons.

The brief was to create an oasis of calm — the feeling of being on holiday every day. Marble, natural stone, brass detailing, neutral tiling, archways, and fluted glass set the design direction, while the ingenious integration of an indoor pool, sauna, and outdoor marble bath evokes the experience of being at luxury resort.

The home secured four awards at the Canterbury 2025 Master Build Awards, this included the Canterbury Supreme Renovation Award, as well as a Lifestyle Award for its exceptional outdoor area — further proving the brief has been achieved.

The expansive open-plan living area, overlooking the lush green conservatory, forms the home’s centrepiece. The granite-finished, floor-to-ceiling designer kitchen features an integrated sitting area, cosy in-wall fire, and built-in corner lounge suite. From here, the space flows seamlessly to the dining area, library/lounge, terrace, and conservatory.

The award-winning outdoor zones are fitted with automated shutters that control light and shelter, creating comfortable spaces in all seasons and weather. A sculptural pizza oven fire, inbuilt BBQ bar, and drinks fridge allow for entertaining on any scale.

The elegant billiard room features a full bar with oak joinery, two integrated wine fridges, and a Colorado quartzite benchtop, alongside a fireplace. This refined space offers beautiful vistas from every window and flows to the terrace on one side and onto a deck nestled within the rose and dahlia garden on the other.

The low-maintenance lawn, seasonal planting, and mature trees shape the landscape, providing privacy and tranquillity, while a discreet vegetable plot supports garden-to-table living.

Other spaces on the ground floor are a grand entrance hall, powder room, bedroom with ensuite, and a fully appointed laundry with chute from the upper level. There is also a triple-car garage and generous storage room for added convenience.

A sweeping staircase in the foyer rises to the second level, where accommodation spans a further five bedrooms and three bathrooms, culminating in a master suite of grand stature, defined by its curved wall, full-scale dressing room, and luxurious ensuite.

A third-floor level provides a dedicated office and gym of approximately 80sqm (size to be confirmed).
Climate control is comprehensive, with double glazing, pellet fires, heat pumps, and underfloor heating ensuring year-round comfort.

Tucked discreetly at the end of a long, newly formed driveway opposite Little Hagley Park, the address is fully secure and offers exceptional privacy while providing easy access to the CBD, Merivale, and leading education options.

Widely admired, this is a rare opportunity to secure a home of considerable calibre, recognised as one of the city’s finest.
