Description: In the heart of the Gibbston Valley is where you will find this secluded lifestyle and vineyard property, known colloquially as Sleeping Dogs.
The special nature of the location on the outskirts of the Wakatipu Basin, 25 minutes to Queenstown and close to the quaint township of Arrowtown, is recognised by its unique character zone making the "Valley of the Vines" a desirable location to live, work and play.
Positioned on an elevated terrace off Gibbston Back Road towards the eastern end of the valley, the versatile 9.7845-hectare property has approximately 4.9 hectares of established and productive vines predominantly of pinot noir, along with chardonnay, pinot gris, and sauvignon blanc to top it off. The vines are currently managed with options depending on the purchaser's preference. Over the vineyard's history, the grapes have been supplied to many notable wine producers as well as the owner's own wine label.
The vineyard sets the scene for a dream lifestyle opportunity. The unique nature of the property offers space to develop a home to suit your imagination in an elevated north-facing location. The differing contours around the property give many opportunities for building. Established trees also help provide shelter and privacy. You could also think bigger with a cellar door or hospitality venue to compliment the existing vineyard and the surrounding area's growing tourism.
Gibbston Valley is a highly desirable place to live, it has a tight-knit community and is home to a growing number of bars, restaurants, and wineries all within a stone's throw of this property. This is a rare find in a popular location that is coming to the market for the first time in 30 years.
The property is offered for sale by Deadline closing on or before 4pm, Thursday 23 March 2023 (unless sold prior).
