About this property

Private Queenstown Retreat + Free Range Rover & E-Bikes, Spa & Views

  • The perfect base for your Queenstown break. Our family home is set on a large 2000sqm section, surrounded by native bush, means that there is a lot of room to explore. Wake up to the sound of Tuis and Bellbirds. Kids will love all the space that includes Funky Monkey bars, a playhouse and a trampoline while the adults enjoy relaxing in the spa pool.

    The lake is only 2 minutes walk away. Swim in the summer or enjoy the bush walk along the lake front into town (40 mins).

    If cookie-cutter homes are not your thing, then you will love ours. Every room oozes with its own style and character. The master bedroom (with ensuite) looks straight out towards Lake Whakatipu. PLEASE NOTE: There are no curtains in the master bedroom, which is why we love it so much, waking up to that view every morning - fabulous! We have lots and lots of NZ art throughout our home and the furniture is a nice blend of the past and present. All of this helps create an intriguing space. Upstairs, the open plan lounge and kitchen have huge views of the mountains and lake. Sit outside on the deck or inside, the views are breathtaking!


    Welcome to one of Queenstown’s most private and peaceful retreats — a truly unique family home set on a beautifully landscaped estate with uninterrupted lake and mountain views, mature gardens, expansive lawns, and total seclusion. Although you’re just minutes from the centre of Queenstown, once you arrive at the property you’ll feel completely removed from the world. There are no neighbouring houses visible, no noise from nearby properties, and nothing but the sound of birdsong, the rustle of trees, and the peaceful colours of the lake and mountains in front of you.

    This is not a standard holiday home. It is a place to slow down, unwind, and experience Queenstown from a private sanctuary that offers space, privacy, comfort, and an atmosphere that is rare this close to town.

    A Setting Unlike Anywhere Else in Queenstown

    The home sits on an elevated section overlooking Lake Wakatipu, framed by the dramatic face of the Remarkables mountain range. Whether you are enjoying a morning coffee on the deck, soaking in the spa as the mountains glow pink at sunset, cooking outside, wandering through the gardens, or relaxing in the lounge, the views are always front and centre.

    What makes this property particularly special is the sense of complete retreat. You will not see or hear neighbours. The entire estate is surrounded by gardens, lawn, trees and natural bush, creating a feeling of your own private lodge hidden in the hills. It is peaceful, serene, and incredibly scenic — a rare combination in such a sought-after location.

    FREE use of Luxury Range Rover Sport (4WD) Included

    A standout feature of the property is the complimentary use of a Range Rover Sport (4WD) for the duration of your stay. This is a major value-add for guests, offering the freedom to explore Queenstown, Glenorchy, Arrowtown and the surrounding region with ease, comfort and style.

    Perfect for ski fields, wineries, alpine roads, airport transfers, and day trips, the Range Rover removes the stress and cost of rental cars entirely. Guests simply sign a short agreement prior to arrival, and the vehicle is all yours during your stay.

    This amenity alone saves many hundreds of dollars and enhances the convenience and experience of your Queenstown visit.

    Four E-Bikes Available for Guest Use

    To make exploring Queenstown even easier, guests now have access to four high-quality e-bikes, ideal for riding along the lakefront, visiting nearby cafés and wineries, or exploring the network of world-class cycle trails that start close to the property.

    The e-bikes offer:

    - Effortless riding for all fitness levels
    - Access to Queenstown’s iconic trails without parking or traffic
    - A fun, scenic way to explore Arrowtown, Kelvin Peninsula and Jacks Point
    - Family-friendly outdoor adventure right from your doorstep

    These bikes transform Queenstown into your playground — whether you’re after a leisurely lakeside ride or a full-day adventure.


    Outdoor Living Designed for Relaxation and Gatherings

    The outdoor areas are one of the highlights of this property. With expansive lawns, established gardens, sculptures, mature trees, and a variety of outdoor living spaces, the home offers a truly special environment to relax, entertain, and enjoy time with family and friends.

    The lake is only 2 minutes walk away. Swim in the summer or enjoy the bush walk along the lake front into town

    Private Spa Pool
    The spa is positioned to capture spectacular lake and mountain views. It’s the perfect way to unwind after a day exploring trails, slopes or wineries. In the evenings the mountains light up in warm hues, making the spa one of the most relaxing spots on the property.

    Wood-Fired Pizza Oven
    A favourite with families and groups, the outdoor pizza oven adds a fun and memorable experience to your stay. Enjoy making pizzas on the deck while looking out to the gardens and mountains.

    Large Entertainer’s Deck
    The spacious deck flows seamlessly from the main living area and offers outdoor dining, comfortable seating, and incredible views of the lake and surrounding landscape.

    Expansive Lawn and Gardens
    The lawn is large, open, and perfect for families with children. The gardens feature seasonal colour, native plants, lavender, stonework, and art pieces — it feels like a private park.

    Warm, Artistic and Character-Filled Interiors

    - Large sliding doors framing the lake and garden views
    - Comfortable leather sofas
    - A distinctive hand-crafted resin kitchen island
    - Timber floors and natural wood features
