AI summary

Discover the Rotoiti Lake House, a stylish bach in Tumoana Bay designed by architect Guy Natusch in 1961. Considered one of New Zealand's first prefabricated houses, it has been thoughtfully updated to feature two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a large bunkroom.

This lakefront property is just metres from the water and includes a shared jetty and boat shed. The exclusive bay is known for its quiet location and a geothermal stream that warms the water.
