Conveniently located just on the outskirts of central Wanaka, the architecturally designed holiday home is a great base for a family looking to explore Wanaka and all it has to offer.

The luxury vacation rental boasts a bright, spacious open plan living area, complete with high raked ceilings and skylights to allow natural light to flood in. The lounge area is split into two, with a double-sided gas fireplace separating the two spaces. There is a TV on each side, meaning the children can tuck around and watch their own show while the adults relax on the couches on the other side and enjoy a glass of local Pinot Noir. This area opens to the outdoor entertaining space, which has more comfortable seating and another gas fireplace for warmth and ambience. A louvre roof offers protection from the elements, so the space can be enjoyed all year round. There is also an outdoor dining area and BBQ so guests can dine alfresco in the warmer months.

Stone Point has four good-sized bedrooms, two with their own ensuite bathrooms and the remaining two sharing the main bathroom and separate powder room. There is ducted heating/cooling into the back bedrooms, with the front room boasting its own heat pump. A double garage offers parking or storage space for skis, snowboards, mountain bikes and other toys.

If you’re skiing at Cardrona, the property’s location means you can easily get out to the ski fields without passing through central Wanaka, which is a great perk in the busy Winter months. Designed by Etal Architects, the property’s name comes from the schist stone peak at the front of the property.

The Wanaka town centre is just moments away in the car, where you can rent bikes and go for an adventure along the tracks surrounding Lake Wanaka. If you’d rather walk, it is approximately 25 minutes to the centre of town.
