THE<br />
Ultimate<br />
OUTLOOK ON LIFE<br />
48 ANDERSONS ROAD, CHARTERIS BAY<br />
A magical world exists a mere half hour from the hustle and bustle<br />
of Christchurch; welcome to Charteris <strong>Bay</strong>. When Friedrich and<br />
Anja Stein rst came to New Zealand they fell in love with this<br />
piece of paradise with its sweeping views across the harbour and<br />
sun-soaked aspect. What they did next is remarkable.<br />
Architecturally designed in the 1990s, the house they found had<br />
glorious views, a stunning section, and endless potential. It also<br />
needed a lot of work. e Steins set out to not only bring German<br />
design and engineering standards to their new home but to create<br />
a completely future-proofed, barrier-free, and sustainably bolthole.<br />
Stepping inside, it is the sweeping panoramic views that<br />
immediately draw your attention through the double-height<br />
atrium-style windows. Outside, Lyttleton <strong>Harbour</strong> and the Port<br />
Hills stretch out in panoramic perfection, presenting an everchanging<br />
canvas that is mesmerising. Yet there is more to this<br />
residence than meets the eye; this is a hot-rod home and if you<br />
look under the hood, you’ll be amazed.<br />
“We wanted to create a forever home.” says Friedrich “A place<br />
where we could grow old and not be hindered by barriers, a home<br />
that would always maintain the perfect climate, and a safe space<br />
that would always comfort its inhabitants.”<br />
eir attention to detail is phenomenal and meticulous and<br />
presents a home that is nished to a standard that would be<br />
considered high in Europe and is light-years ahead of the average<br />
kiwi build. Climate control is assured with a regular temperature of<br />
22 degrees maintained year-round with central heating, cooling,<br />
and ventilation systems working seamlessly.<br />
ose invisible and multi-layered technical systems are evident at<br />
every turn; the whole house has an uninterruptible power supply,<br />
an integrated generator, and its own water treatment plant with the<br />
capacity to store 30,000L of rainwater.<br />
Jo Gilmore is listing the house for the Steins and knows rst-hand<br />
just how special this area is – she lived in Charteris <strong>Bay</strong> for 10<br />
years, and four generations of her family since 1945.<br />
“Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> is a small community,” she says, “so acting for<br />
Anja and Friedrich is a special undertaking, they are like family,<br />
and I know how much of themselves they have put into this home.<br />
It’s a responsibility I take very seriously.”<br />
For Anja and Friedrich, their home has been their haven and the<br />
love that they have lavished on the grounds is evident in every<br />
ourishing fruit tree, and in the lush and thriving vegetable<br />
gardens that provide ample produce.<br />
is is lifestyle living at its nest; take a dip in the UV-treated<br />
counter-current pool, relax on the deck, and step inside to prepare<br />
a home-cooked meal with fresh home-grown produce. is is the<br />
good life.<br />
