About this property

Goldfields Gem - Stunning 3-bedroom house with panoramic lake and mountain views

Looking for a home away from home? Goldfields Gem is exactly that—the perfect base for your next Queenstown adventure. With stunning views over Lake Wakatipu and the Remarkables mountain range from every room, this three-bedroom house is the ideal place to relax after a day spent skiing, biking, hiking, or sightseeing in New Zealand’s tourism capital.

Goldfields Gem provides the ideal setting to enjoy Queenstown's charm and its array of attractions, all within easy reach, but without the bustle of the town centre. It's positioned perfectly for quick access to The Remarkables and Coronet Peak ski fields, making it a convenient base for winter sports enthusiasts. Additionally, the area's shopping and numerous bike trails are easily accessible. Being just minutes from the heart of Queenstown, you're never far from the wide selection of dining, shopping, and entertainment options that the town has to offer.

To support your adventure-filled stay, we’ve included a secure, lockable storage shed that’s perfect for keeping your bikes and skis safe. The shed can comfortably fit up to four bikes and multiple sets of skis, ensuring your gear is ready and waiting whenever you need it.

Let's start a tour of the house. As you enter the house via the stairs, the heart of the home awaits. The combined living and dining area is likely where you'll spend much of your time. For comfort, there is a heat pump to keep you warm during those chilly evenings, and it doubles up as a cooler during summer.

Relax with a smart TV, which comes with Freeview, our free Neon account, or you can log into your own Netflix or Apple account for personalised entertainment. Fancy a board game? Our selection is on hand for those competitive family moments or chilled evenings.

Every meal at the dining table is paired with those breathtaking vistas. And if you feel like soaking in the scenery a bit closer? The deck awaits. We've provided seating out there, so you can comfortably take in those stunning views.

Next to the living room is the kitchen, which is fully fitted with an oven, gas stove, microwave, toaster, refrigerator, dishwasher, and a French press for that important morning coffee. We make your stay easier with complimentary tea, coffee, and a modest assortment of condiments, including spices and herbal teas.

The master bedroom on the first level offers a comfortable queen bed, its own heating, and an ensuite bathroom equipped with a walk-in shower, underfloor heating, and a heated towel rail. There's also a separate toilet downstairs for added convenience.

Upstairs you will find two more bedrooms. The first bedroom provides a queen bed, while the second gives you the flexibility to have either a king bed or two singles, depending on your needs. Just let us know your preference when you book. These rooms share a bathroom with underfloor heating and a heated towel rail. And to ensure you're always at the right temperature, both bedrooms have heat pumps, offering warmth in winter and cooling in summer.

For your convenience, the home includes a laundry area, equipped with a washing machine, dryer, and complimentary laundry detergent, making it easy to keep your holiday wardrobe fresh during your stay. Onsite, we also provide free parking for two cars and unlimited high-speed fibre internet, ensuring connectivity and ease for all your devices.

For those travelling with little ones, we offer the convenience of a high chair and cot upon request. Should you need any extra services during your visit, we're at your service to make arrangements beforehand, including additional cleaning or linen changes, with the applicable charges provided for your planning ease.

At Goldfields Gem, we strive to provide a memorable stay with all the comforts of home, ensuring your Queenstown holiday is nothing short of remarkable.

Perfect Spot in Queenstown!

We stayed for five nights (two adult couples) and the lodging was perfect! Of the three places we’ve stayed in Queenstown in the past year, this was by far the best. Very clean, no heavy cleaning smells or pest product smells, comfortable beds, beautiful views, and a well stocked kitchen. Extra linens and blankets were provided which was greatly appreciated. Communication with the hosts was very clear and thoughtful. The check-in and check out procedure were very easy, too. The only thing to note is that guests have to climb a set of stairs to get into the house, so if someone has mobility issues, it wouldn’t be a good choice. The neighborhood is very quiet and parking was easy. We will absolutely stay again if we are lucky enough to return to Queenstown.

I've been living in Queenstown for the last 20 years. I enjoy many outdoor activities that are readily available here - skiing, hiking, trail running and lots more. Having grown up on a winery in Germany I enjoy experiencing the local wine and food scene around the Otago region. I love to travel but always find Queenstown the best place to come home to. I look forward to the privilege of sharing my hometown with you.
