Set within the premium Peninsula Hill subdivision of Kelvin Heights, this brand-new residence combines considered architecture, a distinctive material palette and an elevated outlook across Lake Wakatipu towards Ben Lomond, Bowen Peak and Skyline.
Designed by Immersion Architecture, with interiors by HM Creative and landscaping by Olivia Bird, the home has a clear design identity. Exposed brickwork brings texture and warmth throughout, complemented by timber finishes and carefully selected feature lighting. The result is a contemporary home with character, where the materials and detailing give each space a considered feel.
Arranged across a single level, the 295sqm residence has been designed for comfortable everyday living and entertaining. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area forms the center of the home, with a walk-in butler's pantry providing additional preparation space and storage. A gas fire anchors the living area, while a dedicated second living room offers flexibility for family life, a media room or a quieter place to retreat.
The outdoor living is a particular highlight. A generous covered entertaining area, complete with an integrated outdoor kitchen and barbecue, takes full advantage of the lake outlook. The north-westerly aspect captures an abundance of sunshine, creating a sheltered setting for long lunches, evening gatherings and relaxed afternoons overlooking the surrounding mountains and lake. It is a natural extension of the home and a space that can be enjoyed throughout the seasons.
The four-bedroom layout includes three full bathrooms and a separate guest powder room. Quality appointments include Fisher & Paykel Series 9 kitchen appliances, a fully ducted heating and cooling system with zone control, and underfloor heating in the bathrooms.
Set on a substantial 1,773sqm section, the grounds provide space around the home while allowing the architecture and outlook to remain the focus. The combination of a generous site, single-level living and a carefully considered outdoor environment is a defining feature of this offering.
Kelvin Heights is prized for its setting, sunshine and access to Queenstown's wider lifestyle amenities, including the lake, walking trails and golf course. Within this established location, Peninsula Hill offers an appealing setting for a home of this caliber.
