44 Roberts Street, Taupo

A fresh opportunity to secure an exceptional lifestyle property, with motivated vendors ready to meet the market at auction.

Architecturally striking, beautifully crafted and positioned to capture spectacular views across a bush-clad valley to Lake Taupō and the Western Bays, this is a home that makes a lasting impression. Set on an expansive 4,233sqm (more or less) site, it offers an outstanding combination of contemporary design, premium finishes, privacy and a natural setting that is difficult to replicate.

Now presented to the market with a clear focus on achieving a sale, this is an opportunity for discerning buyers to take a serious look. The vendors are committed to meeting the market at auction, creating renewed incentive to inspect, engage and put forward their best offer.

From the gated entrance, a long private driveway winds through beautifully landscaped grounds, where native grasses, mature plantings and hardwood boardwalks create an immediate sense of arrival. The home's striking exterior combines Stria and vertical cedar shiplap cladding, natural timber accents, Coloursteel roofing and colour-matched double-glazed aluminium joinery, delivering a contemporary architectural statement that sits comfortably within its surroundings.

Inside, the wide entrance foyer and floor-to-ceiling glazing introduce a home designed to make the most of its setting. A centrally positioned, hardwood-decked courtyard with an outdoor fireplace provides a sheltered sanctuary for entertaining or unwinding, connecting effortlessly with the main living areas and master suite.
The principal living space is impressive in both scale and atmosphere. High-pitched raking ceilings, tongue-and-groove detailing and expansive stacking doors draw the outdoors in, opening onto hardwood decks where the lake and surrounding landscape provide a spectacular backdrop. As the afternoon light fades, the western outlook delivers memorable sunsets that bring warmth and character to the home.

At the heart of the layout, the designer kitchen and generous scullery connect seamlessly with the dining and main lounge areas, creating an inviting hub for family life and entertaining. A separate lounge and office nook provide valuable flexibility, while continuing to capture the property's remarkable outlook.

Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged along a wide hallway, with four well-appointed bedrooms offering privacy and comfort. The master suite is a retreat in its own right, featuring a walk-through wardrobe and luxurious fully tiled ensuite. Three further bedrooms are serviced by a stylish family bathroom and separate WC. Completing the practical picture is a double garage with workshop space, internal access, laundry and mudroom.
Beyond the impressive architecture and refined finishes, it is the combination of space, seclusion and extraordinary scenery that sets this property apart. Whether you are seeking a premium permanent residence or a private lifestyle retreat, this is a home that delivers a distinctive Taupō living experience.

The opportunity is here. The vendors are motivated, and the auction provides a clear pathway to a sale. If you have admired this property previously, or have been waiting for the right opportunity to secure a home of this calibre, now is the time to arrange your inspection and undertake your due diligence.
