Private Queenstown Retreat + Free Range Rover & E-Bikes, Spa & Views | House in Queenstown
3 Bedroom House in Sunshine Bay, Queenstown
The perfect base for your Queenstown break. Our family home is set on a large 2000sqm section, surrounded by native bush, means that there is a lot of room to explore. Wake up to the sound of Tuis and Bellbirds. Kids will love all the space that includes Funky Monkey bars, a playhouse and a trampoline while the adults enjoy relaxing in the spa pool.
The lake is only 2 minutes walk away. Swim in the summer or enjoy the bush walk along the lake front into town (40 mins).
If cookie-cutter homes are not your thing, then you will love ours. Every room oozes with its own style and character. The master bedroom (with ensuite) looks straight out towards Lake Whakatipu. PLEASE NOTE: There are no curtains in the master bedroom, which is why we love it so much, waking up to that view every morning - fabulous! We have lots and lots of NZ art throughout our home and the furniture is a nice blend of the past and present. All of this helps create an intriguing space. Upstairs, the open plan lounge and kitchen have huge views of the mountains and lake. Sit outside on the deck or inside, the views are breathtaking!
Welcome to one of Queenstown’s most private and peaceful retreats — a truly unique family home set on a beautifully landscaped estate with uninterrupted lake and mountain views, mature gardens, expansive lawns, and total seclusion. Although you’re just minutes from the centre of Queenstown, once you arrive at the property you’ll feel completely removed from the world. There are no neighbouring houses visible, no noise from nearby properties, and nothing but the sound of birdsong, the rustle of trees, and the peaceful colours of the lake and mountains in front of you.
This is not a standard holiday home. It is a place to slow down, unwind, and experience Queenstown from a private sanctuary that offers space, privacy, comfort, and an atmosphere that is rare this close to town.
A Setting Unlike Anywhere Else in Queenstown
The home sits on an elevated section overlooking Lake Wakatipu, framed by the dramatic face of the Remarkables mountain range. Whether you are enjoying a morning coffee on the deck, soaking in the spa as the mountains glow pink at sunset, cooking outside, wandering through the gardens, or relaxing in the lounge, the views are always front and centre.
What makes this property particularly special is the sense of complete retreat. You will not see or hear neighbours. The entire estate is surrounded by gardens, lawn, trees and natural bush, creating a feeling of your own private lodge hidden in the hills. It is peaceful, serene, and incredibly scenic — a rare combination in such a sought-after location.
