About this property

No. 52 | A2O at your backdoor + Playground & BBQ

  • Welcome to No. 52, a stylish and family-friendly retreat in Twizel. This home is perfect for anyone looking for a mix of adventure, relaxation, and family fun. Whether you want to explore the outdoors, relax by the river, or just enjoy some peaceful downtime, this property has everything you need for a memorable stay.

    The house has been recently renovated and is bright, fresh, and comfortable. The kitchen is modern and fully equipped, the lounge is perfect for relaxing after a day out, and there is a heat pump and log burner to keep you warm on those chilly nights! WiFi is included, though with so much to do outdoors you may spend most of your time outside.

    The backyard is fully fenced which makes it perfect for kids. There is a playground and kids’ fort, and a BBQ for enjoying meals outside. The property is located directly on the Alps 2 Ocean trail, so cycling, walking, or running adventures can start right from your backyard.

    A short walk takes you to the Twizel River, a peaceful spot for fishing,gentle kayaking, or simply relaxing by the water. Off-street parking is available with ample space for cars, boats, or bikes.

    The home is designed with families in mind but is also great for groups of friends or anyone who loves the outdoors. The open-plan living area makes cooking, eating, and spending time together easy. Toys and books are available for children.

    Twizel sits in a Dark Sky Reserve, offering some of the clearest skies in the world. Guests can stargaze from the backyard, see the Milky Way, and sometimes even spot the Southern Lights. By day, the mountains, lakes, and rivers provide endless opportunities for adventure and relaxation.

    The house is on a quiet street just a 5-minute walk from Twizel town centre, where you will find cafes, restaurants, and supermarkets. It is also close to Lake Ruataniwha, Lake Pukaki, and Aoraki / Mount Cook National Park, which are ideal for hiking, skiing, boating, or just enjoying the stunning scenery.

    Guests have exclusive access to the entire house except the garage. Linen is included, and starter essentials are provided for a comfortable stay. Whether you are here for family time, cycling, fishing, or simply some peace and quiet, No. 52 is a space to relax, explore, and make memories.
