Nestled in the beautiful Hurunui District, Amberley is just a 50-minute drive north of Christchurch. This offers easy access to the city, and nearby large towns of Rangiora and Kaiapoi, yet is far enough away to enjoy peace, space, and nature.


Amberley is the ideal location for families, professionals, and those seeking a gentler pace.


Whether you’re raising children, embracing rural living, or planning your long-term future, Amberley is a place to belong.
