Originally crafted in the 1930s, this exceptional Lake Rotoiti residence honours its art deco heritage while embracing a complete and thoughtful modern transformation. Beautifully renovated to a high standard, it blends enduring character with contemporary sophistication, creating a home that feels both timeless and truly special.
Positioned on an impressive 2,813sqm (more or less) of level lakefront land, the home enjoys a privileged setting on the sought-after peninsula. Manicured lawns sweep to the water’s edge, where a private boat dock, exclusive-use jetty and shared slipway offer the ultimate lakefront playground. From morning paddles to evening fishing, life here unfolds with ease.
At approximately 370sqm (plus garage), the home’s generous proportions are enhanced by intelligent design and quality finishes. The exterior remains faithful to its art deco origins, while light-filled interiors reflect a fresh, refined aesthetic. A new roof with a 20-year warranty, complete rewiring and plumbing, and a reconfigured layout ensure modern comfort throughout.
A stunning designer kitchen anchors the heart of the home, with bespoke cabinetry, high-end appliances, and a generous island connecting seamlessly to dining and family spaces that frame expansive lake views. Multiple living areas offer flexibility for every occasion, from cosy evenings in the snug to lively gatherings in the media or family rooms.
The master suite is a private sanctuary, featuring a lounge, luxurious ensuite, sauna, and walk-in robe. An adjoining office or library with internal and external access makes working from home effortless. Additional bedrooms and bathrooms are located in the main home, including two in the rear annex sharing a family bathroom.
A separate wing provides further versatility, featuring a gym and two large ensuite bedrooms—an ideal setup for extended family, guests, or potential self-contained living. Modern comforts include central heating, a Jetmaster open fire, fibre internet, integrated Wi-Fi, and a built-in sound system.
Outside, expansive lawns flow to the lakefront, offering sun-drenched spaces for relaxation and entertaining. Mature trees and landscaped gardens enhance privacy and connection to the natural surroundings. From sunrise reflections to golden sunsets, the setting captures the very best of Lake Rotoiti living.
The current owners have invested deeply and thoughtfully, creating a lakeside masterpiece that is both elegant and deeply comfortable. Rarely do properties of this calibre come to market. Iconic, beautifully restored, and utterly irreplaceable, this home stands as a legacy for generations to come.
