When landscape and humanity synchronise, magic happens.
A coveted slice of absolute Wānaka lakefront land dubbed “the edge of the world” demanded a perceptive design response to craft a retreat in perfect collaboration with the environment to invoke a feeling of deep peace.
Engaging acclaimed architects Fearon Hay to conceive a modern day shepherd’s hut, the property named Synchronicity is purposely designed with pared-back simplicity to let the lake and mountains shine.
Secluded on 23.8ha at the end of Roys Peninsula, the muted cedar, glass and concrete dwelling sits quietly on the hillside away from any other signs of habitation.
A series of understated structures deliver fluid, multi-dimensional spaces that allow for solitude and conviviality. The interiors are modular in their use – like a Swiss army knife, they unfold, surprise, and flex.
The main home has two master suites with twin sitting rooms, two bathrooms with Japanese onsen-style baths, and an open-plan living and dining area with an indoor-outdoor kitchen.
Comprehensive service amenities, two bunk rooms and garaging are discreetly positioned beyond the core dwelling, with the site wired for ambient sound and light.
Expansive decking blurs the lines between indoor and outdoor spaces, encouraging connection with nature where more than 25,000 natives have been planted, while a separate wellbeing zone features an ice bath, infrared sauna and hot tub.
Private trails traverse the property, with direct access to the lake via meandering and deliberately untamed paths. A pop-up campsite is an invitation again to connect with nature.
Conserving the landscape and fostering rich biodiversity unite those who call Roy’s Peninsula home. This lies just 30-minutes’ drive to Wānaka town and a close distance to Treble Cone ski field.
While bittersweet to be relinquishing Synchronicity, the owner knows that like a fine wine, the property will only flourish with time and trusts a new owner will also find solace and connection here.
The moment is now…
