About this property

Walk to the Lake, or Stay in and Enjoy the View

New on the bookabach market, this newly renovated townhouse incorporates both style and comfort. The new oak flooring, carpet and drapes set the perfect backdrop for the new modern industrial style decor which is designed with your comfort in mind. The kitchen is fully equipped and there's BBQ provided, should you choose to stay in and enjoy the view and the fully furnished deck. If not, then the closest restaurant/bar is only 500m away, alternatively pack a picnic and take a short stroll to the lake front. The property has a double garage and a carport so there is plenty of room to store whatever toys you may wish to bring in order to enjoy the many activities Taupo has to offer

Enjoyed our stay
House was perfect for our stay for the 70.3 world championships. Only issue was figuring out how to use the cooktop and stove since we didn’t realize a pan had to be on the burner to work. Otherwise the house was clean and comfortable.

Gorgeous house in quiet residential neighborhood
The house was amazing - really top notch and convenient. It was a long-ish walk to the center of the town, but close to the lake and its beautiful walking path. Wish we had stayed there longer. Alas, we were just there one night and had to push on.

Great place to stay in Taupo
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, the house has everything you need and is located just a short drive or 15/20 minute easy walk into town, and only a 2 minute walk down to the road to the lake. The house was very clean and exactly as advertised, it has lovely views out to the lake and beyond as well as a lovely outdoor area to relax or have a bbq.

Lovely Getaway
Excellent location, property was presented very well. Great view of the lake and mountain. Only thing I would comment on, is it’s quite cold down in the bed rooms, would recommend having a heater available in the winter. Other than that loved our stay!!
