Set amongst established native kanuka on 6,700sqm (approx) of land, 48 Kanuka Rise is a home that offers something increasingly difficult to find in Wanaka - space, privacy and thoughtful architectural design, all within easy reach of Albert Town and the lake.
Designed by Condon Scott Architects and built by Turnkey Homes, the single-level home has been carefully positioned on an elevated site to capture a northerly aspect, abundant sunshine and beautiful mountain and valley outlooks. Around 69% of the established kanuka has been retained, creating a natural screen around the home and giving the property an exceptional sense of seclusion.
Inside, approximately 291sqm (approx) of living is centred around generous open-plan kitchen, dining and living spaces, with a separate lounge and dedicated office nook. Four double bedrooms include a beautifully considered master suite with ensuite, while a second ensuite, family bathroom and guest WC provide excellent flexibility for family and guests.
The kitchen is designed for those who love to cook and entertain, complete with a substantial walk-in pantry/scullery and Falcon Nexus 110 dual-fuel range. Natural cedar detailing, warm finishes and a feature fireplace bring character and warmth to the interiors, complemented by hydronic central heating, heat-pump support and double glazing throughout.
Outdoor living is equally well-considered, with terraces extending across all four aspects and a sheltered courtyard providing somewhere to follow the sun or retreat from it. The established grounds include native planting, mature orchard trees, vegetable gardens, a greenhouse and irrigation infrastructure, while a 30,000-litre tank supports the gardens and grounds.
For those seeking greater independence, the property also offers 17.5kW of solar panels with a Tesla Powerwall battery, private water supply and on-site wastewater treatment, along with excellent storage and a double garage.
Quietly positioned on a tightly held private road, yet just moments from the Clutha River, Mount Iron and a short drive from central Wanaka, this is a property where architectural quality meets genuine space, privacy and lifestyle.
