3 Te Hepera Street

Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in sought-after Waipahihi, this spacious four-bedroom home over two levels offers stunning views of Lake Taupo, the Western Bays, and the mountains. A short walk or drive will take you to the lakefront, Two Mile Bay sailing centre, or Kokomea with its popular cafés and supermarket.

Designed for flexibility, the ground level features a fully self-contained flat, complete with a double bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, and laundry, making it ideal for extended family, guests, or additional income. Also on this level is a substantial three-bay garage with workshop space for a boat and jet ski, as well as ample off-street parking.

Upstairs, a wide staircase with stairlift access leads to the heart of the home. A modern kitchen sits at the centre, open-plan in design and positioned to capture the morning sun, overlooking the immaculate rear garden. The adjacent formal lounge offers stunning lake views and a gas fireplace, while the separate dining room opens to a north-facing deck, perfect for entertaining as the sun sets across the water.

Also on this level, there is a spacious office, a well-equipped laundry, and three double bedrooms. The master suite features a tiled en-suite, his-and-hers wardrobes, and access to both the garden and conservatory. The other two bedrooms each have their own modern en-suite, one with a spa bath and one enjoying a picturesque lake outlook.

Outdoors, the fully fenced garden is a true delight, lush and productive with fruit trees, raised vegetable beds, structured hedging, and vibrant spring blooms.

Beautifully maintained and brilliantly located, this property offers versatile living in one of Taupo’s most desirable neighbourhoods.
