Lake view, lake level, lake side
Wake up and smell the fresh lake and mountain air from this comfortable and cosy original kiwi bach. Lovely lake views from the kitchen and lounge with a safe, sandy, swimming beach right at the end of the lawn.
Heat pump ensures the house is nice and warm in the winter and air conditioned in the summer to keep you cool if required.
If you want a holiday where you can fish, waterski, snow ski, swim, close to great walking tracks, ten minutes from hot pools, get some peace and quiet, do lots of relaxing and reading - then look no further.
Plenty of room for tents on the front lawn and parking for a boat and a couple of cars. Boat ramp at the end of the driveway.
