Wanaka Olympic House

The Jennian NZ Wanaka Olympic Home is a striking example of contemporary design infused with a deep connection to its environment. As the first home built in the stunning new Kamana Rise Development, it sets the tone for a neighborhood that embraces both modern architecture and the natural beauty of Wanaka’s landscape.

A Thoughtful, Balanced Design

This 180 sqm, three-bedroom home is designed to maximize its breathtaking surroundings, offering magnificent indoor-outdoor flow that seamlessly connects living spaces to the outdoors. A carefully curated material palette combines modern and rustic elements—the vertical cladding and dark garage door introduce a sleek, contemporary edge, while stonework and TMT Taiga cladding soften the aesthetic, grounding the home in its alpine setting. The natural texture and knots of the Taiga cladding enhance the exterior, reinforcing a connection to the landscape while complementing the refined architectural approach.

Inside, light and space take center stage. The kitchen and dining areas are bathed in natural light, thanks to a series of Velux roof windows, creating a bright and welcoming heart of the home. A bay window offers a cozy retreat, perfect for soaking in the ever-changing Wanaka scenery. The fully insulated garage adds versatility, providing an ideal space for a home gym or an extension of the family living area during cooler months.

More Than a Display Home

Beyond its architectural appeal, the Wanaka Olympic Home serves a greater purpose. As an official Jennian Display Home, it will play host to a series of community events, offering locals the opportunity to engage with athletes in the lead-up to the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy and the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. This unique aspect adds an exciting dimension to the home, making it not just a showcase of thoughtful design but also a hub for connection and inspiration.

With its refined yet inviting aesthetic, strong ties to its surroundings, and role as a community space, the Jennian NZ Wanaka Olympic Home is a must-visit - whether for architectural inspiration or to experience the energy of an Olympic legacy in the making.
