Description

That Wanaka Tree House | BEST Lake Front Location

Nestled on the lakefront with direct access to the iconic That Wānaka Tree, this property offers a serene and private escape. Surrounded by mature gardens and stunning trees, the house feels like a rural retreat while being just a short walk from Wānaka’s town center. Guests will enjoy exclusive access to six acres of Wanaka Station Park, where lakefront walking and biking tracks lead to Wānaka or Glendhu Bay. The setting offers unmatched tranquility and breathtaking views, making it one of the most coveted spots in the region.

The home itself is a sanctuary of comfort and luxury, designed to cater to families, couples, and groups. With two master suites, a spacious lounge, and multiple zones to relax, there is room for everyone. Amenities include a spa, sauna, and spa bath for ultimate relaxation, while large bifold doors allow you to bring the outdoors in. The house is well-equipped for all seasons, with excellent heating options and open-air flow for warmer months. Guests will also find a fully appointed bar and drying room for their convenience.

For those seeking outdoor adventures, the location is unparalleled. Step out onto lakefront tracks for cycling or hiking, or take a short stroll to explore Wānaka’s vibrant cafes and boutiques. Nearby activities include kayaking on Lake Wānaka, skiing at Treble Cone, or wine tasting at local vineyards. Whether you’re looking for adrenaline-filled adventures or peaceful lakeside strolls, the area has something for everyone.

The property’s unique charm extends to its furry resident, Koda, a friendly Maine Coon cat who adds a touch of homey warmth. While independent, she loves a gentle pat and will likely be your lounging companion during your stay. If allergies or preferences make her presence an issue, arrangements can be made for her stay elsewhere, ensuring every guest’s comfort.

This home is not just a place to stay—it’s an experience. With its unbeatable location, luxurious amenities, and unique character, it offers the perfect base for exploring the natural beauty and vibrant culture of Wānaka.
