Distinzione

One of Queenstown’s finest and most distinctive properties, 4 Bracken Track, located in the highly desirable Closeburn Station, is the epitome of style, luxury, privacy and quality. The elevation, views and sunshine are extraordinary and the house is simply breathtaking.

Arriving at this very private property at the end of Bracken Track, one is greeted by a very grand sweeping stair entrance. Using rock hewn from the site, the house has a very solid and commanding presence. However, once inside there is a theme of understated elegance. Abundant natural light throughout emphasises the quality of the interior features including plaster washed walls, beautiful floor tiles, wooden floors and natural local stone. Granite worktops, ceramic sink fittings, quality tapware and aged Oregon beams feature throughout. A number of bespoke internationally sourced feature fittings include lighting, lacquered metal surrounds, shutters, French style baths, door and furniture handles, marble and stone basins. The cozy kitchen with butler’s pantry has a log fire and Aga stove for a homely feel, vaulted ceilings and windows open to the views. A formal dining area is perfect for entertaining in winter, or spill out onto a choice of the garden patio with fireplace, or the balcony with the lake view and hot tub in the summer months. There is a formal lounge for drinks, or relax in the media room and take in the game. There’s even a wine room for the connoisseur.

The bedrooms have been cleverly laid out to ensure privacy – the luxurious master suite is beautifully appointed with its own balcony, the guest suite is very private to the rest of the house, and a third bedroom and bathroom provide separated spaces for guests to relax. A mudroom, separate laundry and double garage keep life organised, and an internal lift calls at all floors for added convenience. Central underfloor heating and the abundant solar gain keep this house cozy through winter. Two Tesla batteries ensure you’ll always have power to go with the 5G coverage at this site. The grounds are delightful with a beautiful lawn, rocky outcrops, secluded seating area and direct access to the Mount Creighton Loop Track. A large glasshouse and veggie patches are ideal for growing your own.

To complete this property a superior guest cottage offers self-contained private accommodation to the main residence, which includes a full living and kitchen area with a large adjoining private deck, a large bedroom and full bathroom, and a mezzanine that can be used as extra accommodation as needed. Underneath a large garage with potential for four cars provides multiple options for the new owner.

For the discerning buyer seeking peace and privacy, Closeburn Station is the answer. As a part owner of this 1,000 ha high country station, owners have access to equine facilities, a tennis court, four restored shepherd huts doted throughout the landscape and a large barn for entertaining. So close to all that is Queenstown, yet a world away from the hustle and bustle. The is truly a residence of distinction.
