Lakefront retreat with beach access
This secluded brand new lakefront home is a marvel in modern architecture, positioned in one of the most desirable lakefront positions in Queenstown.
Nestled on a prominent headland overlooking Drift Bay, this thoughtfully designed home ticks all the boxes for the discerning buyer. Modern construction techniques, privacy, north facing expansive lake views and access to a fabulous, secluded beach.
Designed by award-winning architects Kerr Ritchie this premium home encompasses over 430 sq m of contemporary living, providing for four double bedrooms including a large premium guest suite. Extensive use of cedar batten ceilings is a key feature along with large format Italian flooring tiles and extensive use of precast concrete.
Known for its long sunshine hours, glowing sunsets and northwest facing lakeside position, this tightly held neighbourhood is truly a desirable location for those in the know. Extensive native flora attract native bird life and with close to 300 metres of dense native landscaping between the property and road, future privacy is assured.
Few places in Queenstown offer such expansive north-facing lake views while being so close to the airport and town amenities. Sitting in absolute pole-position, this undeniably dramatic location offers a sense of calm, privacy and pure outdoor living.
