Guests can enjoy the vibrant energy and attractions of downtown while retreating to a tranquil alpine oasis situated in a quiet neighbourhood.

STYLE: Luxurious and incredibly spacious, split over three levels with multiple outdoor areas. Papillon has been beautifully styled with Italian furnishings and commissioned artwork.

BEDROOMS AND BATHROOMS: With four spacious bedrooms, each boasting its own ensuite, everyone can enjoy their own personal sanctuary. The large master bedroom, located on the top level, has ‘wow’ factor with a private balcony, walk-in wardrobe, and stunning panoramic views. Bedrooms 2 also boasts a private patio and magical views. The master bathroom and ensuite 2 have twin sinks and a separate spa bath and shower. There is an additional guest toilet on the main level of the villa. All bathrooms are well equipped with luxurious toiletries and underfloor heating.

Relax by the gas fire in the cosy open-plan living area, watch your favourite shows on the Smart TV with SKY, there is also Netflix and Sonos surround sound (connect from your personal Smart phone or use the tablet provided), or indulge in a cinematic experience in the truly impressive media room with an 85" Smart TV.

KITCHEN AND DINING: The kitchen is truly a chef’s dream, top quality cabinetry, countertops, appliances, wine fridge, coffee machine and bar stool seating. Whether you choose to dine indoors or outdoors, both dining areas provide ample seating for eight, allowing you to savour your meals while soaking in the breath-taking views.

THE GREAT OUTDOORS: Step onto the spacious lake-facing balcony, complete with an outdoor dining table, lounge, and BBQ, a perfect space for al fresco entertaining.

Queenstown Luxury
This property is truly amazing, the photos are exactly what you will find, and the view is just stunning. Located close to town so very handy. You will need to drive to town unless you are very fit and enjoy walking up a steep hill. The house is fully equipped with everything you might need. You won’t want to leave!

Great property for a big group & good for entertaining.
Perfect for a big group or family out friends. 3 stories. 3 double bedrooms with En-suite on 1st floor, living on 2nd & large master on 3rd. Double car garage, but won’t take ski racks on car. Only downside is the steep roads on the top of the hill, icey in winter, but great views.
