Elevated Acacia Bay Living with Exceptional Views

Set across 25 acres of rolling, park-like surroundings, Hare's Rest is a truly exceptional and unique property. Totally off-grid, the architecturally designed three bedroom home is thoughtfully arranged around a stunning natural pool and reed bed, creating a seamless connection with the landscape. Please disregard the current RV for this property, as it fails to capture the exceptional value, quality, and opportunity on offer here.

The rich history of Hare's Rest starts at the entrance as the driveway follows the old bush railway, built in the 1930s. Glorious gardens with mature, exotic trees and natives create superb views and absolute privacy around this exceptional home. A mini vineyard, truffiere and farmland for grazing a few sheep lend a delightful rural feel to Hare's Rest. All this is just fifteen minutes from Taupo and a myriad amenities and attractions.

From the living area there is a wonderful indoor/outdoor flow to an expansive deck which has access to the natural pool. Good-sized bedrooms enjoy their own outdoor spaces, with the master having a deck which also leads into the pool.

Designed to maximise the low winter sun, this high-spec home offers multiple, well-considered heating solutions for year-round comfort. Warmth is delivered via water radiators powered by a wood-fired boiler, while burnished concrete floors provide natural thermal mass, retaining heat efficiently throughout. An open fire in the living area provides ambiance or for the odd unseasonal cold snap.

Additional accommodation is provided by the charming architecturally designed self contained studio, along with a further guest sleep out known as The Walnut. A wine cellar built into the hillside is just one of many thoughtfully integrated external features.

With a variety of living areas, Hare's Rest is ideally suited to multi-generational living. An exciting option could be to continue with the current successful self-catering bed and breakfast business and combine a home and business.

Rare, private, and beautifully considered, Hare's Rest presents a remarkable opportunity for discerning buyers. Contact Sacha or Penny without delay.

A Well Kept Secret

There are homes that look the part, and then there are homes that deliver everything behind the scenes that makes life genuinely easy. 128 Victory Drive, Wharewaka is firmly in the second category, and in a suburb as tightly held as this one, that distinction matters more than most.

Built in 2013 and sitting in one of Taupo's most coveted lakeside addresses, this property offers something increasingly hard to find at this price point in Wharewaka: serious space, serious practicality, and a home that has been looked after with obvious pride from the day it was built.

Start with what sets it apart. At the rear of the section sits a generous concrete pad purpose-built for the boat, the motorhome, or whatever gear defines how you spend your weekends on the lake. In a suburb where sections are loved and carefully maintained, having this kind of practical infrastructure already in place and ready to use is a genuine point of difference that buyers with an active outdoor life will truly appreciate.

The home is built around ease and comfort. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms across an open-plan kitchen, dining, living, and family layout that flows naturally to a generous outdoor patio. Multiple sliding doors connect inside to outside, and the patio wraps around the rear of the home, catching the sun and giving you the kind of entertaining space that earns its keep every weekend through summer.

The kitchen is a standout. Dark cabinetry with stone benchtops, a gas hob, a large island with bar seating, and a layout that keeps the cook connected to the conversation. Two separate living areas, including a lounge with its own gas fire and slider to the front, mean the home breathes easily whether it is just the two of you or a full house of guests enjoying the long weekend by the lake.

Wharewaka does not wait. Neither should you.

Bring the Boat. Bring the Motorhome. Welcome to Wharewaka.

This smart, low-maintenance residence, constructed in brick and linea, offers an easy-care lifestyle for those seeking comfort and convenience.

The rear garden enjoys a sunny aspect overlooking the golf course, creating a peaceful setting to relax and unwind in the covered outdoor living area. Large glass doors open from both lounges and the master bedroom, enhancing the sense of space and creating an effortless flow between the indoors and out.

The spacious master bedroom features an ensuite and walk-in robe, while the remaining bedrooms are generous doubles with built-in wardrobes. A separate lounge, complete with a woodburner, provides a cosy retreat, while the family room is kept comfortable year-round with a heat pump.

With the golf course right at the rear and the new shopping centre just further along the road, this is a prime central location in Kinloch Village. The property is also conveniently placed for the walking tracks that meander through this popular lakeside community towards the lakefront.

At its heart is a spacious open plan living area where everyday life can flow easily from indoors to out. Large sliders open on two sides to the patio and covered entertaining area, creating a superb extension of the living space. Complete with rain sensor louvre roof and outdoor blinds, this sheltered area can be enjoyed through the seasons and is an inviting spot for long lunches, evening meals or simply relaxing outdoors.

Comfort has been well considered, with a wood burner, two heat pumps, two Econo heaters and under tile heating in the bathrooms providing plenty of options throughout the cooler months.

The accommodation is equally practical. Two generous double bedrooms with built in wardrobes occupy one side of the hallway, while the master enjoys its own sense of separation, along with a walk in wardrobe, ensuite and direct access to the garden. Both bathrooms are beautifully finished with extensive tiling, including a wet area shower in the ensuite and a tiled bath surround, tiled floor and glass shower in the main bathroom.

Adding further versatility is a separate office or 4th bedroom with a wardrobe and doors opening to the garden, an excellent work from home space or useful additional bedroom depending on your needs.

Beyond the property, the location captures much of what makes Kinloch such a special place to live. The Whangamata Stream Trail is on your doorstep, green spaces surround the neighbourhood and Kinloch’s golf, marina, lake and recreational amenities are all within easy reach.

Solid as a Rock

Some locations are simply hard to come by. Positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, neighbouring Aubrey Crescent Reserve and just a two-minute walk from the lake, 11 Kowhai Road captures everything there is to love about the classic Kiwi bach lifestyle, space, sunshine, privacy and an exceptional location.

Set across nearly 1,200 sq m, the generous grounds are made for relaxed Taupo living. There is room for the boat and the toys, space for overflow guests to pitch a tent, and plenty of lawn for backyard cricket after a day on the lake. With the reserve alongside, the property enjoys an added sense of openness and connection to its peaceful surroundings.

The north-facing position makes the most of the sun, while generous outdoor living provides the perfect setting for long summer days and evenings spent outdoors. Kwila decking extends the living spaces and creates an inviting place to gather, dine and unwind.

Out on the front deck, a FLARE outdoor fire creates another natural gathering point, extending the enjoyment of this sunny outdoor space well into the evening and through the cooler months.

The plaster-over-brick and cedar exterior adds character and complements the home's established setting.

But it is the position that truly sets 11 Kowhai Road apart. Tucked away at the end of the cul-de-sac, beside Aubrey Crescent Reserve and with the lake only moments away, this is the kind of Taupo location that is increasingly difficult to secure.

Whether it's morning swims, days on the boat, backyard cricket, extra tents on the lawn or evenings around the fire, this is quintessential Kiwi holiday living in one of those special locations you'll want to hold onto for generations.
