13 Cherry Lane, Acacia Bay, Taupo, Waikato

Established Acacia Bay attracts buyers from around the North Island and locals alike, as it is a well-known destination for holiday makers and a fantastic place to live permanently. Amazing lake beaches, easy access to boat launching facilities, bush walks and mountain biking trails are some of the key features of this idyllic and iconic Taupo location.

Elevated, north facing and sheltered from the prevailing south westerly winds, this home is nestled in its own micro-climate with outstanding views across the Taupo District, Lake Taupo and the town lights at night. Completed in 1993, clad with Cedar and brick and largely double glazed, this family home covers approximately 240sqm on a great sized, freehold title.

The exceptional design of this two-level dwelling has clearly evolved around the mesmerising views and offers a floor plan to cater for all. The ground floor provides three bedrooms and a bathroom or two bedrooms and a lounge area. Perfect for families or an opportunity to set up Air B&B accommodation. There is also ample storage and an extra-large double garage with internal access.

The upper level is a brilliant setup and a wonderful area to have large gatherings. A huge lounge is positioned at the front of the home, spacious dining is adjacent to the kitchen and a small deck for breakfast in the morning sun. For ease of living, we also find the master bedroom with ensuite, an office and a powder room for guests but a real highlight is the north facing covered deck offering the opportunity to BBQ, relax and entertain in the outdoors.

The grounds here require minimal maintenance and there is ample room to park additional vehicles such as boats, trailers and campervans.
