Welcome to our luxury four-bedroom lakefront home in Wanaka, an idyllic retreat perfectly situated just steps from the lake's edge and a short walk into town. Tailored for families or groups, our home offers a blend of sophistication and comfort in a prime location.

Across the road, you'll find The Wanaka Tree, access to the beautiful Waterfall creek walk/cycle track, a children's playground and designated swimmers area, making it an ideal spot for a family getaway. Revel in the relaxed and luxurious ambiance of the house, with seamless indoor and outdoor spaces crafted to suit all seasons. Enjoy fabulous views of the lake from the three upstairs bedrooms, along with stunning mountain vistas from the garden—an inviting, sunny, and spacious haven to fully embrace all that Wanaka has to offer.

The expansive open kitchen and dining area are perfect for entertaining, equipped with premium appliances and a Nespresso machine. Step out to a private outdoor area, complete with a stone pizza oven and Weber Gas BBQ, ideal for gatherings or serene relaxation. The lounge boasts bi-fold windows that open to the garden, creating a delightful space for those warm summer evenings.

Our home is fully carpeted and tiled, featuring underfloor heating in all rooms for a cozy atmosphere. Guests have full access to the laundry and the double garage, providing convenient internal access to the house.

Beautiful home in an awesome location
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Wanaka. The home is in a great spot and very close to the lake and local shops are an easy walk away. The house is well maintained and was great for the 9 of us. The home is very warm inside and a great layout for large groups. The host was very responsive and helped us with any questions we had.

Wonderful spacious home in a great location
Our group consisting of four couples enjoyed three nights in this lovely spacious home which was located opposite the lake within easy walking distance to town. We appreciated the welcome hamper and the well stocked kitchen as well as the comfortable beds and the three lovely bathrooms. The home is clearly much loved by the family who owns it and provided us with the perfect base to enjoy the end of our holiday. Many thanks to Emily and her family for our great stay.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay. A group of 6 adults with children all under 4. The property was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed, and more! Emily was extremely easy to communicate with and helpful. We were sad to leave and could easily have stayed longer. Definitely recommend!
