25 Drift Bay Road

Description

25 Drift Bay Road is a modern architectural waterfront home situated on 3,017 square metres of premium lake front land just 15 kilometres from Queenstown airport. The extremely private home sits naturally on the fully landscaped property with magnificent Lake Wakatipu views, and a backdrop of Cecil Peak and many other picturesque mountain ranges.

The grand entrance door takes you into the heart of the living areas, an open plan space with floor to ceiling glass slide doors, which open to a central deck that has electric louvre style covers to protect from the seasonal elements. A superb office looks out to the lake and connects with the living spaces, including a formal lounge with an open fire, a cozy TV snug, and a state of the art kitchen with all the appliances expected in a luxury home at this level.

The main living area opens out onto a large entertaining space, a sun drenched courtyard with an open fire and steps that lead to the hot tub and a path through the garden down to the beach. A double garage has internal access to this level, also housing a large modern laundry with commercial appliances and a temperature controlled wine cellar. Stairs and a glass elevator connect to the carpeted lower floor where there is a home theatre with kitchenette, a sauna with shower and toilet, and two large double bedrooms. Both sleeping quarters have en-suite bathrooms with twin basins, and large walk-in wardrobes.

The top floor contains a large apartment with a double bedroom, a bathroom with twin basins, and a walk-in wardrobe and living room with a kitchenette. Its separate outside access enables this feature to be self-contained, making it perfect for guests or staff.

Quality infrastructure is in abundance with polished concrete floors with diesel driven under-floor heating, an integrated sound system,external night lights and a complete air conditioning / heating system throughout. An internal access double garage completes the picture and makes living easy in this well designed lakefront home.

The land size is just under the threshold for international purchasers so this property is an investment that can be sold on the global market and will no doubt mature well as lakefront sites become more and more rare.
