Distinction Architecturale Et Mode De Vie Extraordinaire

Some homes are built to impress. Others are created to leave a lasting impression. This extraordinary residence is a masterclass in architectural expression. Where traditional craftsmanship, warm timber detailing and exquisite joinery combine to create a home of enduring character, sophistication and soul.

Beyond the entrance corridor, a dramatic central atrium reveals a world of light filled living, generous proportions and beautifully connected spaces. Designed for both intimate retreat and effortless entertaining, this is a residence where every detail has been considered and every space invites you to experience something special.

With an expansive floor plan encompassing five double bedrooms, office, fitness room, media snug, four bathrooms plus a separate powder room, there is room for family, guests and every dimension of modern living.

This elevation position captures sweeping lake views, the iconic Mount Tauhara and an ever-changing skyscape, it is a view that defines the experience.

High ceilings, designer lighting and the warmth of a wood burner and gas fireplace create inviting spaces throughout the seasons. The gourmet galley kitchen is equally impressive, offering generous storage and preparation areas for those who love to cook and entertain. Thoughtfully integrated lighting and a sophisticated hanging system provide the perfect setting to showcase treasured artwork.

Where indoor living meets outdoor luxury, the transition between indoors and out is seamless. Living and bedrooms connect to patios, decking and verandahs, while the expansive front deck provides a sun-drenched setting for morning coffee, long lunches and evenings spent taking in the view.

For year-round entertaining, the sheltered northwest outdoor living area is a destination in its own right, complete with overhead heaters, a feature fireplace and a welcoming ambience. Beyond, the generous inground swimming pool promises endless summer enjoyment, complemented by sun loungers and a dedicated built-in playground for younger family members.

Space for every generation, a distinctive loft-style retreat offers two additional bedrooms overlooking the lawns and pool. Ideal for extended family, visiting guests or exploring Airbnb accommodation potential, it adds a valuable layer of flexibility to this remarkable property.

Set across approximately 8,000sqm of elevated, beautifully landscaped grounds, the estate delivers a sense of space and privacy rarely found. Two front paddocks offer opportunities for livestock, additional gardens or further landscaping creativity. An outdoor cellar provides a dedicated environment for an ageing wine collection, while triple garaging near the gated entrance offers additional space for boats, vehicles and recreational equipment. Ample off-street parking accommodates the caravan or motorhome with ease.

A lifestyle beyond the ordinary. It is a private sanctuary, an entertainer’s haven and a property of remarkable versatility, where architectural integrity meets the freedom of expansive grounds and the beauty of its natural setting.

The true measure of great architecture is not simply how it looks, but how it makes you feel. A statement of timeless design, inspired living and exceptional scale.
