Tai Tapu offers rural village living just 20 minutes from Christchurch’s central city. Vineyards, restaurants, berry farms and the iconic luxury homestead, now Otahuna Lodge, sets the tone for this desirable district.

The lovely Tai Tapu domain has tennis and netball courts, a rugby field, outdoor bowling green and nine-hole golf course. There are horse riding facilities and charming local gardens to visit. The village also has its own café and primary school - and Lincoln University is only 6km away.

And not to forget, Akaroa’s picturesque harbour is just an hours drive away, giving you access to superb opportunities for boating, tramping, fishing and plenty of other outdoor activities.

Tai Tapu realty is the best of both worlds – quaint village community and in easy reach of the city.
