About this property
Lake Front Living - directly across from Lake Taupō. Spectacular deck views of lake and mountains
Relax on the deck and soak up the spectacular lake and mountain views. Ideal for families (with older children) or couples. The property is conveniently located directly across the road from Lake Taupo, a short stroll to the CBD and 5min drive to the airport, allowing for the perfect base to enjoy all that Taupo offers.
Split across three levels, this townhouse boasts a large, open plan living and dining area, a fully equipped kitchen, good sized bedrooms, and three bathrooms.
Guests benefit from free WiFi. There is parking available in the apartment garage. Please ensure you do not block off any of the driveway. You may also park across the road (whilst minimal, at own risk). Please take care when turning off the main road into the property as this is a busy highway.
When you book to stay you can do so knowing you`ll have the entire place to yourselves.
As your host I`m just an email or phone call away.
The apartment is directly across the road from the edge of Lake Taupo. The perfect spot in all seasons.
