55F Gibbston Back Road Gibbston, Gibbston, Queenstown-Lakes, Otago

Positioned high above the renowned Gibbston Valley wine region and bathed in sunshine, this exceptional 2.582-hectare north-facing lifestyle estate site presents a rare opportunity to create a landmark luxury residence in one of Queenstown’s most desirable locations.

Privately located at the very end of Gibbston Back Road, the property enjoys sweeping panoramic views across the valley of vines toward Coronet Peak and the surrounding mountain ranges, with Little Mt Rosa rising dramatically below the site. The elevated position provides outstanding privacy, all-day sunshine and an extraordinary sense of space.

A carefully designed 1,000sqm building platform has been positioned to maximise both views and privacy while maintaining the integrity of the surrounding landscape. Thoughtful design controls ensure the Mt Rosa community continues to reflect a high-quality and carefully curated lifestyle environment.

To complement the setting, the current owners commissioned renowned Queenstown architect Regan Johnson to design an exceptional architectural residence for the site. Detailed concept plans for a substantial luxury four-bedroom home have been prepared and resource consent has already been granted, allowing a purchaser to proceed directly to earthworks and construction.

The proposed residence has been thoughtfully designed to sit harmoniously within the dramatic Gibbston landscape while providing the scale and quality expected of a premium Queenstown estate. Set amongst the celebrated vineyards and cellar doors of the Mt Rosa and Gibbston Valley wine region, the property offers a lifestyle synonymous with the very best of Central Otago. The nearby Kawarau River cycle trail provides direct access through the valley towards Arrowtown, Queenstown and beyond.

Despite its tranquil rural setting, the property is just 10 minutes from historic Arrowtown and approximately 20 minutes from Queenstown International Airport.

For purchasers considering international investment, the vendor has obtained an Overseas Investment Act sensitive land certificate confirming the property’s classification under the Overseas Investment Act 2005. Overseas purchasers may apply for Overseas Investment Office consent, including under applicable investor migration pathways where the total residential development represents a significant investment in a luxury residence.

With architectural plans prepared, resource consent granted, this property provides a compelling opportunity to establish a substantial luxury residence in Queenstown’s internationally recognised alpine lifestyle destination.

A remarkable setting. A luxury architectural vision already in place. Ready for your Queenstown estate to take shape.
