About this property
Taupo on your doorstep! A lovely home in walking distance to lake and town.
Summary:
Experience comfort and sunshine in our elevated home in peaceful, family-friendly Hilltop, Taupo. Just a short 500m stroll down the road to the lake for summer swimming and water activities, and only 2km from the town center. Local Dairy, Fish &Chips and the Mole & Chicken Restaurant and Bar are an easy 500m stroll up the road from your holiday home.
Enjoy sun-filled afternoons in our private, enclosed backyard, complete with a spacious deck —ideal for BBQs, drinks, and unwinding after a day of adventure. In winter, return to the cozy warmth of underfloor heating after hitting the slopes.
Conveniently located just a short drive to the airport, Taupō Motorsport Park, golf courses, and all the attractions the region has to offer. Walk or drive to town for great restaurants, bars, and shopping.
Your ideal Taupō retreat awaits—book your stay today!
