Lake House, a spectacular Queenstown property, is listed for $10.425 million. Owned by investor David Lawn, the home was redesigned by London architect Alex Wilcock to offer a lighter, "feminine" alternative to typical regional architecture.

This five-bedroom, 600m² lakeside residence features a 30m glazed conservatory, high-tech automation, and has hosted corporate retreats for brands like Lululemon. The owners are now downsizing, offering a unique opportunity to acquire this luxurious home through Oliver Road Luxury Real Estate.

Owner David Lawn had the house designed by London-based architect Alex Wilcock in 2016. It was built over three years by Triple Star Construction.

A 30m-long conservatory with overhead louvres is a key feature of the triple-glazed house. No matter what the weather, it maintains a comfortable temperature inside.

Neutrally toned interior furnishings ensure the interior doesn’t compete with the scenery.

There’s a choice of seating and dining areas.

The house has five bedrooms, two of which are main suites. There is a separate guest wing.

Although quite isolated, the property is just 12 minutes from Queenstown by car. The town can also be reached by boat.
