Whether you’re dreaming of a luxury holiday home, a family retreat, a home-and-income, or a multi-generational setup, this property delivers it all. - Set high among the trees with sweeping, uninterrupted views over Lake Taupō and the snow-capped peaks of Mt Ruapehu and Mt Tauhara, this home offers something truly rare: space, privacy, versatility, and a sense of calm that’s hard to put into words.
Nestled high above Lake Taupō and surrounded by native trees, this remarkable property offers a sense of tranquillity that’s becoming harder to find. With 354m² of living space and over 9,000m² of land, this home blends scale, privacy and versatility in a way that suits families, entertainers, or those looking for a home-and-income opportunity.
The home unfolds over multiple levels, each space framed by ever-changing views of Lake Taupo, Mt Ruapehu and Mt Tauhara. Floor-to-ceiling windows, warm timber features and thoughtful renovations create an inviting atmosphere, a place where you instantly feel at ease.
Designed for flexibility, the property offers four bedrooms and four bathrooms, including areas ideal for guests, extended family, or short-stay income. The studio attached to the garage provides even more options: a dedicated home office, a creative space, a consulting room, or extra accommodation.
Outdoor living is exceptional, with four decks capturing the sun throughout the day. Whether you’re hosting friends, enjoying a quiet morning coffee, or watching the sunrise or sunset roll over the lake, the setting is simply unforgettable.
This is a home that embraces its environment: built on poles and tucked among the trees, it feels like a modern treehouse, peaceful, private and elevated. A fully fenced rear garden for pets or children, while four heat pumps and a wood burner ensure comfort in every season.
With potential to possibly subdivide, space to grow, and the option to generate income, 85 Mapara Road stands out as a rare offering in one of Taupō’s most desirable pockets.
