Nestled in exquisite seclusion, high above Waikato River, Lake Karapiro Lodge basks in breathtaking views over the water and lush landscape to Mt Maungatautari. At one with nature and hints of the English countryside, this property was built with England’s stately residences in mind.
Developed as a family home with boutique Luxury 5 Star Hotel, the current owners took that concept next level, hosting guests from around the world. Glowing testimonials prove this property’s worth and dream location.
Opulent design and discerning finish define its decor; suites and bathrooms all styled with tasteful detail. A kitchen for cooks and caterers. Fine dining in a grand drawing room, with its Victorian fireplace, plush furnishings and more to explore.
Three deluxe, ensuite rooms downstairs embrace the views and open outdoors to gaze in awe at the scenery and sunset. Upstairs, two prestige rooms pay homage to names of world renown – balcony views offering private reflection. Particularly sentimental is the Sir Tristram suite; a tribute to Cambridge’s famous racehorse and sire. The late Sir Patrick Hogan and his wife Justine donated their time and artifacts to honour the stallion that brought them fame and led Cambridge Stud and its rural township to become the home of champions and equine heritage.
A separate two-bedroom studio by a heated swimming pool offers further flexibility, while a wellness centre includes a sauna and spa. Underpinning it all is the location, however. The elevated privacy simply enhances this property’s distinction: near Karapiro, with its famed rowing centre, easy commutes to Cambridge, Mt Maungatautari, Rotorua, Tauranga, Waikato and beyond. An hour’s drive to anywhere and everywhere. Make your choice. Live here privately and cherish the freedom with family and friends, or continue the Luxury Lodge in a new chapter.
A home and garden on a grand scale, this is what luxury really means. Call Angela or Steve and discover your future at Lake Karapiro Lodge.
