High Country Retreat

Discover the epitome of modern mountain living in this stunning four bedroom contemporary home, nestled amidst the breathtaking vistas of Lake Tekapo.

Crafted by renowned architect Charlie Nott and completed in 2019, this 330 sq m home harmonises seamlessly with its high country surroundings. Adorned with Siberian larch and western red cedar, complemented by aged steel chimneys, this pavilion-style residence exudes sophistication.

Step inside to be greeted by oak floors and timber ceilings that grace the spacious kitchen, dining, and living areas. With open wood fires and central heating, cozy up in style while marvelling at the ever-changing landscape outside. From scorching summers to snow-blanketed winters, every season offers a spectacle of nature’s beauty.

Set within a 199 hectare freehold title, a private winding access road climbs to the elevated house site, providing both privacy and tranquillity in this remarkable environment. Yet just 17 km from the township of Tekapo, this seemingly remote homestead is within reach of all the usual amenities.

Home to perhaps New Zealand’s most remote boardroom, the property has a standalone 75 sq m dedicated air-conditioned boardroom with a small studio bedroom. Offering the same dramatic setting and views as the house, this space could easily be utilised as a studio or guest house.

Approximately one kilometre away from the homestead sits a modern high country cabin, offering all the charm and feeling of remoteness with modern-day comforts.

Double glazed and insulated, with solar power, four bunks, a fire and a kitchenette, Sally Hut sets the new standard for alpine cabins.

Completing the package is a seven bay, 294 sq m farm shed (partially enclosed), providing ample space for storage and hobbies.

Don’t miss your chance to experience the ultimate in alpine living. Enquire now and make this mountain retreat your own.
