Happy Days

Few addresses in Taupo carry the same recognition and enduring appeal as Lake Terrace. Positioned directly opposite the shoreline of Lake Taupo, this substantial residence occupies a tightly held stretch where premium homes are rarely released. Just minutes from the town centre, dining, and lakefront recreation, the location is not simply convenient, it is iconic, attracting permanent residents, holiday homeowners, and luxury buyers from across New Zealand and beyond.

Purposefully designed to maximise its breathtaking outlook, the home captures uninterrupted views across Lake Taupo to Mount Ruapehu and the peaks of Tongariro National Park, with sweeping sightlines extending toward Two Mile Bay and Acacia Bay. Expansive glazing frames the panorama, delivering ever-changing scenery from crisp alpine mornings to golden evening reflections, creating a daily sense of occasion that few properties can offer.

Spanning approximately 541 sq m across three levels, the residence sits within an exclusive category of Taupo homes defined by scale, quality, and thoughtful design. Lift access connects each level, while multiple living zones, four well-appointed bedrooms, and beautifully tiled, heated bathrooms provide both comfort and functionality. Premium finishes, bespoke cabinetry, feature fireplace detailing, underfloor heating, integrated security, and extensive garaging reflect a level of craftsmanship and investment that would be difficult to replicate in today’s construction environment.

Designed for both relaxed living and impressive entertaining, the home delivers exceptional lifestyle appeal. Six-car garaging, EV capability, boat or camper parking, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow cater perfectly to the Taupo lifestyle. With the lake directly across the road, boating, swimming, and lakeside walks become part of everyday living rather than occasional leisure.

Access to well-regarded Taupo schooling further strengthens the property’s appeal for families and relocating professionals seeking a premium yet practical residence in a world-class location.

In every sense, this is a rare offering, a remarkable convergence of scale, engineering, outlook, and location in one of Taupo’s most prestigious lakefront addresses.

From this elevated vantage point, the views are breathtaking. By day, expansive lake vistas stretch across the horizon. By night, the lights of Taupo sparkle across the water, with the bush-clad slopes of Mount Tauhara providing a dramatic natural backdrop.
 
The home itself is substantial and very soundly built, offering approximately 440 square metres of living and garaging, with workshop and storage room. Inside, you’ll find expansive open-plan kitchen and living areas, a separate dining room, billiard room, and a character-filled English-style pub bar.
 
Five generous bedrooms each feature their own ensuite, including two with luxurious spa baths, and the home comfortably accommodates up to fifteen guests without the need for bunks – making it ideal for large families, holiday living or premium hosting.
 
Outdoors, the entertaining continues with a dedicated area complete with a professional fish smoker, pizza oven and barbecue.
 
Set at the top of a private driveway and secured behind automated gates, this remarkable property offers privacy and prestige.

This is more than a home. It's an unparalleled location.

Note: The current Rateable Valuation is $1.87 million. For context, the property sold twenty-two years ago for $1.7 million, before a later private sale occurred at $610,000 less — a transaction that has since adversely influenced the QV assessment. Meaning it's seriously undervalued.  
And when taking into account the fact that recent house sales are generally at a lower price than their Rateable Value, this could make this particular property the buy of the century.
