44 Roberts Street, Taupo

Originally constructed as a standout example of quality craftsmanship, this substantial residence combines enduring materials - Cedar weatherboard and Summit Stone cladding - with a complete, high spec transformation for modern family living. Set across an impressive 290sqm (more or less) over two levels and positioned on a generous 1,012sqm (more or less) freehold section, this home offers both scale and sophistication in equal measure.

Our current owners have invested significantly to bring the home into the 2020's, completely reimagining the once traditional floor plan. The result is a seamless open plan layout where the kitchen, dining and living areas connect effortlessly - perfectly suited to today’s lifestyle.

At the heart of the home, a state-of-the-art kitchen showcases sleek design, porcelain benchtops and quality appliances. A thoughtfully designed servery window enhances connection to the outdoors, where covered hardwood decking provides the ideal setting for year round entertaining. The adjoining dining and casual living spaces are warm and inviting, complemented by easy care Oak laminate flooring and quality window furnishings throughout. For those seeking a more refined retreat, a separate formal lounge accessed via a cavity slider or barn style door - delivers a sense of luxury with rich tones, feature panelling, ambient lighting and a striking gas fireplace. The ground floor also includes the convenience of keyless entry, a dedicated office and a well appointed separate laundry with built in cabinetry.

Comfort is assured year round with two ducted heating and cooling systems - one servicing the upper level and one the lower - delivering quiet, efficient climate control throughout the home.

Upstairs, four generously proportioned bedrooms provide excellent accommodation for families. Three enjoy captivating outlooks across Lake Taupō, the township lights by night and the mountains of Tongariro National Park. The master suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a walk around bedhead, private deck access and breath taking lake views stretching toward Acacia Bay. Both the main bathroom and ensuite are beautifully finished, showcasing earthy tones, natural timber elements, floor-to-ceiling tiled walls, and feature lighting - creating spa like spaces for relaxation.

Parking and versatility are standout features here. In addition to the double internal access garage, there is a separate double garage already configured with future potential in mind - whether for a large shed or granny flat. At the street frontage, dedicated space accommodates a boat or campervan with ease. The fully fenced grounds are beautifully landscaped, offering privacy and space for families and pets alike.

Positioned just metres from Hilltop School and local shops and only a short drive to the Taupō CBD, this is a location that perfectly balances convenience with lifestyle.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a substantial, fully renovated home where classic construction meets contemporary living - ready to be enjoyed for years to come.
