Award-Winning Hidden Island Home in New Zealand

This property is on the market with New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty for $18,500,000 NZD

The minimalist Hidden Island Retreat was designed to blend into the landscape of New Zealand’s Jack’s Point Preserve. 

With large glass panes and ample use of cedar and local shist stone, the property has been described as "subservient to its environment" by its award-winning architects Mason and Wales, and has been the recipient of multiple awards at the RMBA Regional House of the Year Awards. 

Inside the residence, the view takes centre stage, framed by oak walls and ceilings and bluestone floors. 

Every room offers access to the outdoor terrace with its reflecting pond, which captures the dramatic views of the Remarkables mountain range and the Jacks Point golf course. 

Set at the edge of Lake Wakatipu, the 5-bedroom, 6-bathroom home is a minimalist masterpiece, featuring two stone structures connected with a glass gallery, positioned to take advantage of all-day sun and spectacular natural scenery.
