Completed in 2023, the approximately 239sqm residence has been thoughtfully designed to embrace its elevated position.

At the heart of the home, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area provides a sophisticated yet relaxed setting for everyday life. A generous island, excellent storage and warm timber flooring give the space both style and practicality, with wide sliders opening directly onto the deck.

How we worked this out
| Council valuation, Sept 2023 | $1,360,000 |
|---|---|
| Market movement in Tasman District since the council valuation | +2.0% |
| How Upper Moutere sells against council values | −2.2% |
| Homes of this age in Upper Moutere | −2.1% |
| Homes in this price range | −2.6% |
| Land as a share of the value | −0.3% |
| Nearby recent sales (9) | −0.5% |
| Our estimate | $1,280,000 |
We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.

If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.
Free. Takes about a minute.
We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.
