Lakefront home with open-plan interiors and green features by Fowler Homes
Light-filled, cedar and stone, two-storey waterfront home with open-plan entertaining, six-car garage and green features

Building in what is arguably one of the most beautiful places on Earth requires a special skill set an ability to create a house that is trained on the views, offers a snug yet spacious interior, and includes every contemporary convenience.
Fowler Homes Southern Lakes specialises in creating homes that respond to spectacular settings yet have their own dramatic internal aesthetic. Quality, adaptability, attention and care are hallmarks of all the company's projects.
This executive Lake Wakatipu home is a case in point, says managing director John Mansfield. And he should know, because all clients work directly with the MD throughout their project.

The two-storey cedar and stone waterfront house is nestled on Frankton beach, taking in panoramic views of the lake and mountains through thermally insulated Low E windows.
The 389m² home has easy indoor-outdoor living, a downstairs rumpus, six-car garage, and offers open-plan entertaining on the central, sun-drenched deck. There are two living spaces.
There is also a master bedroom with a large ensuite and robe, two guest bedrooms each with their own bathroom and an office.

To stay cosy and warm on colder days, the heating includes a clean-air wetback fireplace, a multi-zone underfloor heating system and heat pumps, all powered through a 5.5kwh solar system that can be controlled from anywhere. The home earned a Sustainability Lifestyle Award.
