13 Minaret Ridge, Wanaka

Elevated on just under an acre of rolling grounds, with arguably one of the best views in Wanaka, this home is a rare offering in a jewel of a location. Set amongst the Kanuka on generous grounds 3604 sq m (more or less) the home offers incredible grandstand views of the lake and mountains from almost every room. You will never tire of the ever-changing sky and light as you look across the lake and your beautiful private gardens, to West Wanaka, Treble Cone, Black Peak, Mount Roy, Rocky Mountain, Fog Peak, the Buchanans, the Peninsula, and the wilderness of Mount Aspiring National Park. The modern home offers four generous bedrooms, plus an office and large open hallway which is utilised as a kids zone. The heart of the house creates a relaxed and private retreat with an open plan kitchen and dining room, suspended over your own naturally landscaped reticulating stream that flows through to the cascading pools. The large windows frame the panoramic lake and mountain views in the day and elevate the night sky in the evening, a fantastic spot for entertaining. The diverse garden has gorgeous views from every corner, native plantings fruit trees, a fairy forest of Kanuka at the side of the property that acts, along with the gentle moraine terrain, as a baffle for shelter. Ample heating options, good storage and large internal garaging and parking, room for all the toys. You will love this property so much it will be hard to leave, but when you can draw yourself away from your view, you are only a short stroll away from beautiful swimming spots and lake walks at Penrith Beach, biking trails along the lakefront and Sticky Forest reserve. So close to the Wanaka town centre and local schools. Let every day feel like a holiday in this perfect piece of paradise....
