Built to Last
Some homes are built to impress. Others are built to last. This exceptional residence achieves both.
Designed by renowned architect Sarah Scott, this substantial 366m2 home sits proudly on a beautifully landscaped 1541m2 site in sought-after Peninsula Bay, enjoying lake views while backing directly onto reserve land and Sticky Forest.
Constructed with longevity and performance in mind, the home features solid concrete block walls throughout, a concrete upper floor, and quality craftsmanship that is rarely replicated today. The result is a home of remarkable strength, comfort and acoustic insulation that offers peace of mind for generations to come.
Inside, generous proportions and soaring ceilings create an immediate sense of space. The heart of the home is a beautifully appointed open-plan kitchen, dining and living area featuring hardwood flooring, stone benchtops and a servery that flows effortlessly to the sheltered outdoor entertaining area. Complete with a feature stone fireplace and spa, it is an inviting space to enjoy throughout every season.
A separate lounge with warm timber ceilings and its own impressive stone fireplace offers another place to relax, while the adjoining snug or home office, complete with a wood burner, provides a quiet retreat.
Accommodation comprises four spacious bedrooms, including two luxurious master suites with their own ensuites. A beautifully finished family bathroom and two separate toilets ensure everyday convenience, while three bedrooms open onto balconies that capture the surrounding outlook.
Comfort has been carefully considered throughout the home, with underfloor heating providing consistent warmth underfoot. The heating system is supported by an efficient ground source heat pump that preheats the water circulating through the underfloor heating, delivering outstanding comfort while helping to reduce energy consumption.
Storage is abundant throughout the home, complementing the large internally accessed double garage with an adjoining storage room. In addition, a separate 48m² garage with an extra-high door easily accommodates a large boat, campervan or oversized vehicles—ideal for embracing the Wanaka lifestyle.
Private lawns, mature gardens and direct access to reserve land complete a property that offers an exceptional combination of architectural design, uncompromising construction and effortless family living.
This is a home where quality is evident in every detail.
