With 3 bedrooms and 4 beds the house comfortably hosts up to 6 guests. There is a large fully equipped kitchen and dining area with plenty of areas to sit and relax. Enjoy views of the surrounding mountains from the front, Ōkārito kiwi sanctuary and Lake Pratt from the rear and a spacious garden with decking to sit, chill and take it all in. A place to enjoy peace and nature.
Set on a hectare of land with views of the mountains out front, Lake Pratt to the side and Ōkarito Sanctuary (home of New Zealand's rarest kiwi) to the back you are sure to feel totally immersed in the stunning landscape and rich biodiversity that surrounds you.
This is an ideal getaway anytime of the year. In Summer explore the surrounding lush rainforest, swim or kayak in clear waters of Lake Mapourika. Visit the beach at Okarito and walk the trig to experience stunning views of the Mount Cook ranges. At the house, take time to cook in the kitchen and sit out on the decking taking in the perfectly stunning views surrounded by native bird call. Chill and relax on the outdoor seating with the fire pit going, enjoy a glass of wine whilst watching the sun set. Then as it falls dark, listen out for the call of the kiwi in the sanctuary overlooking the house.
In Winter, the days are crisp and clear, perfect for taking a Heli ride to stand on top of the glaciers or walk round Lake Matheson to take in the famous mirror image of Mount Cook on the lake. Enjoy an al fresco coffee or meal in one of the many cafes. Then head to the house to curl up in front of the wood fire, read a book, knit, watch tv or make a puzzle. It’s a space you can truly switch off from the hustle and bustle of life and get back to the simple things in life.
