All I Want for Christmas is Étoile!


Country freedom. Architectural distinction. A lifestyle to savour.

Elegant by form, exceptional by function, pride of place by position. Timelessly designed by renowned architects Mason & Wales, welcome to Étoile. Set across 2.429 hectares of established grounds, Étoile offers an appealing alternative for those looking to downsize from a larger farm or embrace country living on a more manageable scale.

Purpose-built to showcase its enviable setting, this bespoke residence captures panoramic vistas and excellent sunshine. Considered sightlines and generous proportions invite the surrounding scenery inside, creating an effortless sanctuary that shifts with the light throughout the day.

A formal entrance opens into beautifully proportioned open-plan living, dining and kitchen spaces, where soaring ceilings and expansive double-glazed windows frame the magnificent Taieri Plain views. The timeless kitchen features rich timber cabinetry, engineered stone benchtops and quality appliances, while living areas extend onto wrap-around decks and a sheltered Tuscan-inspired courtyard.

An outdoor fireplace/wood-fired pizza oven and glass-covered pergola create an exceptional setting for entertaining. Imagine long lunches with family, summer evenings with friends, or enjoying a Central Otago Pinot Noir as the sun sets over the Taieri.

Accommodation includes three generous bedrooms.Upstairs, the master suite enjoys magnificent views and features an open-plan ensuite with underfloor heating, tiled shower and bath. A second bedroom is equally suited to guests or a home office, while downstairs, a third bedroom opens directly to the private courtyard and gardens.
A substantial multi-purpose room with its own entrance, custom cabinetry and excellent storage provides further flexibility for hobbies, creative pursuits or visiting family.
Year-round comfort is provided by a gas fire, three heat pumps, underfloor heating in the kitchen and bathrooms, insulation and double glazing. New Zealand wool Cavalier Bremworth carpet, French linen silk-lined drapes and quality fixtures add a further touch of luxury.

True to its name, Étoile - French for star - is particularly captivating after dark, beneath the expansive Otago night sky.

Outside, the property harmoniously blends low-maintenance, mature landscaped gardens, expansive lawns and gently rolling paddocks to create a private country retreat. For those transitioning from a larger rural holding, this is an opportunity to retain the space and independence of country life while freeing up more time for family, travel and leisure.

Two 23,000-litre in-ground concrete water tanks provide excellent water storage capacity, complemented by generous parking and practical driveway access.

Another advantage is Étoile's position. Enjoy rural tranquillity while remaining close to Mosgiel's shops, cafés and essential amenities.
Dunedin Hospital, the university, city centre and airport are also conveniently accessible, making this an attractive option for buyers relocating from Southland or Central Otago. From its Tuscan-inspired courtyard to its distinctive architecture and beautifully established surroundings, Étoile brings a European influence to everyday country living.

A new chapter, without leaving the lifestyle behind - Whether you're transitioning from a larger farm, seeking a peaceful retreat or looking for a home of architectural distinction, Étoile offers an opportunity to enjoy the next chapter on your terms.

Imagine celebrating your first Christmas here, gathering family and friends around the outdoor fireplace, enjoying long summer lunches beneath the glass-covered pergola and creating memories for years to come.

This Christmas, the greatest gift could be a lifestyle you've always dreamed of.
