Wake each morning to panoramic views across Lake Taupo to Mount Tauhara, enjoying breakfast on the sun-drenched deck as the day begins. Later, unwind with family and friends in the private rear garden, surrounded by established native trees and vibrant birdlife.

Positioned in the quiet lakeside community of Motuoapa, this well-maintained two-storey home offers the perfect balance of relaxed family living, generous space and excellent income potential.

The upper level is the heart of the home, where light-filled open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas flow seamlessly to a north-facing deck designed to capture the stunning lake vistas and all-day sun. Whether you’re entertaining guests or simply soaking up the scenery, this is a space you’ll love spending time in.

The master bedroom, complete with a walk-in wardrobe, and the second bedroom both enjoy direct access to the deck via ranch sliders. A stylish family bathroom features a shower, vanity and toilet. During the cooler months, a large wood burner with wetback, complemented by a heat transfer system, provides efficient warmth throughout the home.

Downstairs offers exceptional versatility with two generous bedrooms, a fifth double bedroom or home office, a comfortable lounge with kitchenette, separate shower and toilet, plus a large heat pump for year-round comfort. With its own entrance and the ability to be completely self-contained, this level is ideal for extended family, guests, Airbnb accommodation or a valuable home-and-income opportunity.

Practicality is equally well catered for with two spacious garages providing ample secure room for vehicles, boats, bikes and all your holiday or sporting equipment. Additional features include a woodshed, garden shed, raised vegetable planter and an irrigation system for easy-care grounds.

Perfectly positioned for those who love the outdoors, you’ll be just a 10-minute walk to the lakefront, local café and the new marina, with the Whakapapa Ski Field (45-minute drive) and the Turoa Ski Field (90 minutes drive), along with their mountain biking trails and world-class hiking easily enjoyed.
