Extensively refurbished in 2020 with architectural finesse, this substantial Wānaka residence now embodies the polish and style worthy of NZ House & Garden magazine. Crisp modern finishes, sun-filled interiors, and versatile living spaces were at the heart of the architect's brief, resulting in a home that balances sophistication with ease of living on a rare 2,289m² lake-view section, overlooking the Wānaka golf course and only a short romantic stroll into town.
The main house features two en-suite bedrooms, offering either upstairs privacy or downstairs convenience, along with a generous office (or optional third bedroom), laundry facilities, and a powder room. At its core, vaulted ceilings crown the sun-drenched kitchen, living areas, and family room that wrap around the central fireplace. Doors open seamlessly north and west to private gardens - a defining highlight of the property, which are just starting to bloom.
A separate three-bedroom, one bathroom, guest wing, linked internally along the hallway, has been successfully operated as an income-generating apartment. The upstairs balcony deck serves as the entrance to the open-plan living, lounge, and kitchenette, while downstairs features a dedicated spa area, ensuring the bedrooms have complete separation and privacy - ideal for extended family, visiting friends, or continued homestay use.
Sustainable features, such as solar panels with Tesla battery storage, enhance everyday efficiency, while upgraded insulation, double glazing, and heat pumps ensure year-round comfort. Detached garaging further enhances practicality, with ample space for vehicles, golf carts, and the workshop.
Outdoors, the landscaped gardens provide colour and seclusion throughout the seasons, framing elevated views of Lake Wānaka, Mount Roy, and the Southern Alps. Whether entertaining beneath the magnificent umbrella tree, tending to the vegetable gardens, retreating to your private patio, or capitalising on the income potential, this residence offers a lifestyle and address few can rival. https://vltre.co/pOZ4gl
