Private 2BR Haven – West Melton - Haven on Halkett

Step off the road and into space. Haven on Halkett sits on 12 acres of sunny West Melton lifestyle land, offering privacy, fresh air, and room to breathe — all within easy reach of Christchurch.



This modern two-bedroom retreat is positioned on its own entrance and access, separate from the owners’ residence at the rear of the property. You’ll enjoy your own parking (room for two vehicles), your own deck, and uninterrupted views across neighbouring lifestyle blocks.



--The Space--

Light-filled and thoughtfully styled, the open-plan living area flows seamlessly to a generous sun-soaked deck — ideal for morning coffee, evening wine, or simply watching the sky roll over the plains.



The fully equipped kitchen includes everything you need for a comfortable stay, whether you’re preparing a quick breakfast or a relaxed dinner after a day out.



--Sleeping Configuration--

-Bedroom 1: King bed

- Bedroom 2: Two single beds



Ideal for couples, small families, or colleagues travelling together.



--Bathroom--

-1 modern bathroom

-Fresh towels and essentials provided



--Comfort & Practicality--

-Heat pump providing heating and air conditioning

-Washing machine

-Private entrance and parking for 2 vehicles

-Sunny deck with outdoor seating



--The Setting--

This is a working lifestyle block. Depending on the season, you may see sheep grazing or tractors operating in the distance — part of the authentic rural experience. Surrounding properties are also lifestyle blocks, so you’ll enjoy wide-open views rather than suburban density.



Haven on Halkett offers the balance: peaceful country living with modern comfort and easy access to West Melton amenities and Christchurch beyond.



If you’re looking for space, sun, and a true Canterbury lifestyle setting — this is it.



--Discover West Melton--



West Melton offers a different pace. Just 20–25 minutes from central Christchurch and around 15 minutes from Christchurch Airport, it feels worlds away from traffic, noise, and density.



Here, the roads open up. The skies feel bigger. Properties sit on generous lifestyle blocks, framed by paddocks, shelter belts, and distant mountain views. It’s a place where mornings are quieter, sunsets stretch longer, and there’s space for children to roam and adults to exhale.



The village itself has the essentials — a local supermarket, cafés, takeaways, medical centre and pharmacy — while Rolleston’s larger shopping and dining precinct is only about 15 minutes away. You’re close to everything you need, yet surrounded by countryside calm.



West Melton is ideal if you want:

-Fresh air instead of city noise

-Open space instead of tight subdivisions

-A rural feel without losing convenience

-Easy access to Christchurch, Selwyn, and alpine day trips



It’s not remote — it’s intentional. A place to slow down, spread out, and experience Canterbury the way locals do.



Please Note: To help ensure a safe and welcoming stay, a security camera is installed at the entryway of the property. It allows us to monitor arrivals and maintain a secure environment for all our guests.



Your privacy is a top priority — the camera is positioned to cover only the exterior entryway and does not record any interior or private areas.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Conveniences include a microwave and an electric kettle.
