Maplewood Villa is being sold as a turn-key investment holiday home with a five-star rating on Air BnB. All chattels, furniture and artwork are included with a rental assessment for excellent income when not in personal use.

Situated in the heart of Dalefield between Arrowtown and Queenstown the substantial home with stunning alpine views is set on over 6,000 square metres of beautifully landscaped grounds. The tree lined access driveway climbs its way up to an elevated plateau with the attractive house and separate garage. Peaceful, elevated, private and sunny, the sprawling grounds feature a treasure trove of mature trees including mature Walnuts, Oak, Beech and Kowhai. A Katie Deans landscape plan has stage one implemented with further planting to come.

The architectural home designed by Sir Ian Athfield has been recently renovated with an outstanding deck and pergola to complete the entertainment area.

Living areas are all on the ground floor, with a large galley kitchen and walk-in pantry, dining room and separate lounge which opens onto the large deck. Keep warm in the winter with an open fire in the lounge and log-burner in the dining room, plus a large heat pump in the centre of the house. A tiled bathroom with underfloor heating and separate laundry complete the ground floor-plan.

Accommodation consists of five generous bedrooms and two bathrooms. The master has a walk-in robe and private balcony with stunning views out towards Arrowtown and the Crown Range.

Above the house is an expansive roof terrace with 360 degree views over the countryside and surrounding mountains. Whether entertaining friends and family, star-gazing or relaxing on a sun lounger, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better spot.

Garaging consists of an 80 square metre two bay carport with an adjoining home office / sleepout which has a multitude of potential uses. All this on a superb private block of land at entry level Dalefield pricing make this a sound investment.
