Description
Few locations in the Wakatipu Basin have been as tightly held through the years as Hogans Gully Road on the outskirts of Arrowtown. This superb home on 2.68 hectares represents a rare opportunity to become part of this exclusive neighbourhood with Ayrburn and celebrated eatery Mora just a few minutes away.
Automated gates lead to a driveway which meanders up past wetlands, through a silver birch grove and past the competition-level tennis court. Further on is a dedicated sauna building surrounded by glorious native and exotic plantings and a walled garden containing raised vegetable beds. The home’s dramatic architecture melds seamlessly with quiet spaces and sunlit gardens and your entry experience is complete.
Strong architectural forms and timeless materials set the scene for a home with real presence. Light-filled living areas step out to a wrap-around deck, inviting in the all-day sun. Expansive interior spaces encompass four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a grand master suite with dual walk-in wardrobes. A fifth bedroom with cosy living space and en-suite has private external access.
The rich lustre of timber connects each room, creating warmth and ambience that’s amplified by bespoke lighting choices. Superbly heated, the diesel-fired radiator system is augmented by a grand open fire, wood-burning stoves and under-tile heating in the bathrooms.
Configured around a sheltered dining courtyard and exquisite Japanese-themed garden, tranquillity is one of the key drawcards of the property. Both inside and out, the design and construction offer peace and privacy, offset by a soundtrack of birdsong and water tumbling down the rock waterfall before making its way to the pond below.
A generous three-bay shed provides expansive storage areas, plus a potential gym and wellness space. The south-west corner of the property has a consent in place for a two-bedroom dwelling providing for further accommodation or passive income.
365 Day Visitor Accommodation consent for the main home adds significant value and flexibility. Step into an unrivalled lifestyle with The Hills and upcoming Hogans Gully Farm golf courses so close to home, along with award-winning dining options and Arrowtown's boutique retailers a short drive away.
