Mountain View Road, Dalefield, Otago

Upon arrival, a tree lined driveway meanders down to the centre of an outstanding three hectare parcel of premium Queenstown land. Expansive views of the Remarkables to the south and Coronet Peak to the north greet residents and visitors.

The main residence is constructed of cedar and schist with large windows that frame the enticing panoramic outlooks. The design centres around an open plan kitchen and dining area, which opens to the north facing decks and courtyard complete with outdoor fire pit and pizza oven. A two-sided open fire adds ambience and warmth to both the lounge and formal entrance.

The master suite is located in the eastern wing of the home and features a generous ensuite, ample wardrobe space and stunning vistas. This wing has a large media room which also opens to the outdoor entertainment hub and expansive lawns. The western wing of the home encompasses four more bedrooms, three of them opening north to a sun-bathed veranda and lawns. This wing sits above the extra-large four bay garage with internal access and has a built in homework station which can also be used as a second office.

Adding a layer of flexibility and convenience to owners, the jewel in the crown is a cosy two bedroom guest cottage with kitchen, bar and wood burner. An authentic terracotta brick courtyard to the north of the cottage looks out over the tennis court and an attractive row of stately willow trees. The buildings are connected by a garden path however the cottage has a separate entrance and can be completely independent if rented out.

Council zoning allows for an average lot size of one hectare, creating provision for future subdivision (subject to consent), and there are two suitable paddocks, one to the north and one to the south of the current buildings. On balance this property represents an excellent investment with good potential to add value by enhancing the landscaping on the future development land.
