AI summary
Lake House, a spectacular Queenstown property, is listed for $10.425 million. Owned by investor David Lawn, with ties to Lululemon and LSKD, the home was redesigned by London architect Alex Wilcock with a light, "feminine" style inspired by Palm Springs.
The nearly 600m², five-bedroom residence features a 30m glazed conservatory, lakeside access, and high-tech automation. Previously used for corporate retreats, it offers a unique blend of luxury living and tranquil privacy in Closeburn.
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.

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