About this property

Waitahanui Lakefront Escape - Waitahanui Home

The spacious living area is designed to make the most of its spectacular setting, with large windows and seamless indoor-outdoor flow framing the lake beyond. Step outside to enjoy your morning coffee overlooking the water, gather around the BBQ for an alfresco meal, or settle in for a memorable evening as the sun sets behind the mountains.

At the heart of the home, the fully equipped kitchen makes holiday catering easy, while the generous living spaces provide plenty of room to relax after a day of adventure. No matter the season, comfort is assured with heat pumps and a wood-burning fireplace creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Curl up with a good book, enjoy a movie on SKY TV, or simply take in the ever-changing lake views.

With four bedrooms and three bathrooms, this lakefront retreat comfortably accommodates up to nine guests, making it ideal for extended families, groups of friends, or multiple couples travelling together.

Perfectly positioned near the crystal-clear Waitahanui River, you'll find scenic walking tracks and the popular Rock Pool Walk just moments away. Keen anglers can try their luck in one of New Zealand's renowned trout-fishing destinations, while Mt Ruapehu's Whakapapa Ski Area is within driving distance for winter adventures. Taupō's shops, cafés, restaurants, and attractions are also just a short drive from home.

Whether you're planning a summer escape by the water or a cosy winter retreat, Waitahanui Lakefront Escape offers a memorable lakeside setting to relax, reconnect, and explore all that the Taupō region has to offer.
As the property has direct, unfenced access to the lake, adults should closely supervise young children while outside to ensure they are safe around water.
