Beacon Point Road, Wanaka

Architecturally designed and with three levels that flow intuitively, this three-bedroom house has also been impeccably finished. The 302sqm haven is clad in a mix of cedar, Nu-Wall and schist, creating a statement in style, and its interiors are equally as impressive. A large open-open living, dining and kitchen space features a beautiful cedar ceiling. The sleek kitchen is crafted using a mix of matte black cabinetry and stainless steel benchtops, with a hidden butler's pantry to conceal any mess. All three spacious bedrooms have ensuites - two with their own private balconies - and are connected via a cedar staircase to outstanding outdoor living. A schist-clad fire and pizza oven have been built for alfresco entertaining and dining, and there's the bonus of views across Lake Wanaka. A standout feature is the master ensuite, which is a study in dark marble and includes a double vanity, freestanding bath and separate shower. It's a sanctuary worth lingering in. With it's premium fittings, space, Central Otago vistas and craftsmanship, this is a home to savour.
