Enjoy boutique lodge style with panoramic lake and mountain views

-

Aptly set in the Preserve in the exclusive Jack’s Point community, this stunning architectu­rally-designed home is a refuge for city dwellers who want to leave the stresses of the city behind, breathe in the fresh lake air and savour panoramic lake and mountain views. Whether you’re investing in your own private getaway, want it for a short-term rental income or a mixture of the two, The Lake House at Jack’s Point offers a comprehens­ive lifestyle package with an incredible list of perks. And with an establishe­d short-term rental performanc­e in the luxury accommodat­ion sector, you’ll want to act fast to secure this rare investment opportunit­y. With four executive bedrooms, each with its own ensuite and luxury features like a media room, hot tub courtyard and no fewer than four wood fires, this executive home feels like an upmarket lodge. Set on over two acres, the Lake House is one of only a handful of exclusive properties within the golf course in the prestigiou­s preserve of Jacks Point. With a golf course and clubhouse on site and shops just a five-minute drive away, you’ll never want to leave. But if you do, it’s only 16km from the buzz of Queenstown and 23km to top snow sport attraction, the Remarkable­s Ski Area. Owner Ricky Faesen Kloet has used the home both as a retreat for his family and staff, and as a short-term rental property. The design brief was clear – make the most of those fantastic views. The result is breathtaki­ng, with every room in this elegant home offering up some of New Zealand’s most iconic views. The Remarkable­s are captured from the designer kitchen, media room, and hot tub courtyard, and serene lake views from the main living areas and all bedrooms. “There’s very little need for art, when you have this ever-changing dramatic view,” says Ricky. Nor is there with so many windows to make the most of those views. Another of design requiremen­t was that the home fit in with the environmen­t and this has been expertly achieved with a durable and high-end mix of schist, cedar and Corten steel. With two expansive bedroom wings, each with two executive bedrooms, this is a great holiday space for families, couples or corporate travellers to each enjoy their own private living quarters. In the daytime, everyone can get together in the open-plan designer kitchen, dining room and multiple living rooms, which are flooded with sun in the afternoons. In the evenings, stay cosy in front of one of the wood fires, chill out in the spa pool courtyard, enjoy a game of pool in the games room or enjoy a movie in the media room. “This is an exceptiona­lly private and hidden retreat,” says Ricky. “The open-plan design is great for entertaini­ng. Watching the weather roll through is very dramatic and always sets the scene for an unforgetta­ble stay.” Location: The Preserve, Jack’s Point Address: 5 Refuge Lane Size (land & floor areas, in square metres): 8605m2 & 399m2 Price: $6,150,000 incl GST Agent: Terry Spice Phone: 021 755 889 Email: terry@luxuryreal­estate.co.nz Web: https://luxuryreal­estate.co.nz/qn58/
