Set on an expansive 1,624 sq m site, this 417 sq m architectural masterpiece by Jimma Dillon captures timeless Hamptons elegance infused with relaxed Taupo character. Elevated above the lake, the home has been designed to frame sweeping views while celebrating craftsmanship, sophistication, and natural beauty in perfect harmony.

Step inside to discover generous proportions and seamless indoor–outdoor flow. The open-plan living area features soaring raked ceilings with high studs, an integrated sound system inside and out, and a large open fireplace that connects effortlessly to the outdoor entertaining area—complete with its own matching fire. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen is a true statement in design. A limestone island bench imported from France anchors the space, complemented by a stainless-steel bench-top and bi-fold windows that open directly to the sun-soaked deck. Premium appliances include a Falcon double oven with gas hobs and a large wet scullery that makes entertaining effortless.

Three substantial bedrooms each open to the wraparound deck, embracing the lake views and natural light. The master suite features a luxurious fully tiled en-suite with a walk-in shower, while the family bathroom reflects the same refined level of finish. A separate laundry adds everyday practicality. Every detail tells a story — from the aged totara wide floorboards that run through the entrance, kitchen, and dining areas to the two striking Virginia Fisher-designed bottle chandeliers that elevate the living space. Cedar cladding brings warmth and longevity, completing the home’s timeless coastal aesthetic.

Downstairs, the robust engineering and design are evident. Constructed from concrete block with a full tilt slab construction, the lower level is built to last, providing strength and integrity rarely seen today. The triple-car garaging is exceptionally spacious, easily accommodating vehicles plus a large boat, an essential feature for Taupo living, and is conveniently accessed by internal lift.

Outdoors, beautifully landscaped gardens and manicured lawns frame the home, creating a private sanctuary surrounded by established trees. The grounds include a variety of fruit trees and lush plantings that change beautifully with the seasons, enhancing the home’s sense of tranquillity and connection to nature. Comfort is assured year-round with central heating and cooling, and every element of the design has been carefully considered for both beauty and function.

This is a rare opportunity to secure one of Taupo’s most beautifully crafted lake-view homes — where architecture, engineering, and environment unite in perfect balance.
