This stunning lakefront home in Taupō showcases exceptional architectural design, unparalleled craftsmanship, and breathtaking water and mountain views. Built Spaces Taupō’s trusted custom home builder delivered a 276sqm bespoke home that blends modern elegance with warm, rustic character.
The four-bedroom architectural build, clad in classic board and batten, replaces an older property and brings to life the owners’ 15-year vision of the perfect Taupō lakefront home. The original garage was preserved for sentimental reasons and transformed into a functional rumpus room for the family.
Inside, every space is designed to maximise the spectacular lake outlook. The kitchen and dining area features polished concrete floors, blond ply cabinetry, and custom groove-and-batten detailing on the island. Skylights, clerestory windows and large sliding doors flood the home with natural light and connect it seamlessly to expansive outdoor living decks.
A cosy, rustic-style living room provides the ideal retreat for cooler Taupō evenings, complete with a striking schist fireplace and barn-style sliding doors. This character extends into the primary suite, where double barn doors open to stunning lake views right from the bed.
Additional spaces include a stylish powder room, dedicated study, fully tiled bathroom, laundry and a new garage each built with the same attention to detail and premium craftsmanship. Despite challenging ground conditions, such as a high water table, Built Spaces successfully delivered a durable, high-performing home that exceeds the owners’ expectations.
As award-winning Master Builders in Taupō, Built Spaces continues to lead the way in luxury home construction, architectural new builds and high-end renovations, creating homes that are as functional as they are beautiful.
