Mystic Peak

Surrounded by an Elysian, dreamlike landscape, this remarkable residence looms large over Queenstown, New Zealand, encompassing 40 hectares of pristine alpine terrain

With 40 hectares of alpine terrain at the owner’s disposal, the developer pitches this property as a prime opportunity to be king of one’s own private mountain idyll in New Zealand. Set within The Remarkables mountain range, the industrial yet earthy nature of this 550sqm three-bedroom three-bathroom residence is truly, well, remarkable. The view offered by this unique property makes short work of even the most impressive of sweeping vistas offered by high rise condominiums.

Every room of this palatial home opens out onto a feature pond and cantilevered entertaining areas. The designers have used the kitchen as another hub, along with the ‘pond’, and to delineate the home into formal and informal areas. The residence also includes an outdoor terrace and patio, the aforementioned pond (just about half the size of the residence) and maintenance-free garden landscaped appropriately in tussock and rough boulders.
