About this property

Far more than a home, 13 Hodge Court is a sanctuary for those who long to live gently, tread lightly and feel deeply connected to the world around them. From the moment you arrive, there is a sense of exhale. Calm, grounding and full of heart, this is a home that has been lovingly created to nurture self sufficiency, creativity, family life and quiet retreat. Tucked away in a peaceful court between Akaroa and St Helens, it offers a rare chance to embrace a more meaningful way of living by the sea. The setting is nothing short of beautiful. The garden is rich with life and abundance, offering a true haven for families who value fresh food, open space and connection to nature. Fruit trees heavy with seasonal produce including nashi, citrus, apples and plums sit alongside native plantings that attract birds and wildlife. There are ponds, cubby houses, sandpits and a chicken coop, creating the kind of childhood that feels wholesome, free and wonderfully grounded. A generous walk-in pantry is ready for homegrown harvests, while sunny decks invite long lunches, quiet reflection and slow afternoons in the fresh coastal air. Even the family pets and birdlife have been thoughtfully considered, with their own secure enclosure. Inside, the home spans an impressive 215m², offering a scale and flexibility rarely found in the area. With four bedrooms, two bathrooms, two kitchens, two living areas and a studio, there is room here for families to spread out, create, gather and retreat. The layout also lends itself beautifully to dual living, with the potential to function as separate upper and lower level accommodation - each with two bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen and living space. Internal and external stair access makes it ideal for multi generational living, guest accommodation, holiday letting or a private creative retreat. The lower level features a dreamy studio or sunroom that opens directly onto a deck overlooking the garden - the perfect space for yoga, painting, music, writing, healing work, or simply sitting with a cup of tea in the morning sun. Upstairs, exposed rafters, timber floors and soaring ceilings bring warmth, texture and soul. Large windows frame the greenery beyond and flood the home with natural light, while passive solar design supports comfortable living through the seasons - welcoming winter sun and remaining cool in summer. One of the bathrooms even evokes the feel of a Scandinavian retreat, with steam, timber and light combining to create a space of complete escape. Features include a studio with bath and laundry, off-street parking for three vehicles, a fully fenced yard with places to climb, play and explore, wood heating plus electric heating, and close proximity to beaches, dunes, boat ramps and mountain bike trails. This is a home for the dreamers, the growers, the makers and the families who want more than just a house. It is a place to slow down, breathe deeply and build a life filled with beauty, nourishment and peace. To inspect this one of a kind home, contact Heidi and the team at Harcourts St Helens.
