Welcome to the kind of property that tells stories... fishing stories, family stories, and lake stories that last generations.
Set proudly on the waterfront at beautiful Lake Tarawera, this superb property captures everything that makes this location so tightly held and so rarely offered.
Along the boundary, a crystal-clear rainbow trout spawning stream gently winds its way to the lake - a natural treasure that sets the tone for a true angler's retreat - one of only two properties on the lake.
The home itself embraces a rustic fishing lodge charm - warm, welcoming, and designed for gathering. Open plan living, dining and kitchen areas are anchored by breathtaking lake views, with the water always front and centre. Large windows frame the ever-changing blues of the lake and sky, ensuring the outlook is never far from sight.
The stream mouth fishes well for the fly fisherman over winter, virtually a private fishing secret.
Three generous bedrooms plus a dedicated bunkroom provide ample accommodation for extended family and friends. The master suite enjoys its own ensuite, while two additional full bathrooms make hosting effortless after long summer swims or successful days on the water.
Step outside and you'll find flat lawn stretching to the lakefront - ideal for backyard cricket, lazy afternoon picnics, or simply soaking in the serenity. A shared jetty at the water's edge makes lake access seamless - launch the boat and an easy tie up after an evening cruise.
This is more than a waterfront home. It's a place where trout run, boats glide, laughter carries across the lawn, and memories are made season after season.
If you've been waiting for the ultimate lakeside fishing lodge - this is your moment.

A Rotorua Lake Tarawera local, is an experienced award winning real estate agent who has successfully completed millions of dollars’ worth of real estate transactions over the past 13 years.
Having lived in the Rotorua Lakes area for a significant period of time, Jenny’s knowledge of the local real estate market is exceptional. Her family have owned property at Lake Tarawera since 1960 and Jenny has spent a lot of her time there. It’s no surprise then that she has already become known as the “go to” agent in the area. Her clients are choosing to work with her for her professionalism, ethics, consistency, experience and her ability to keep her word.
Another advantage is her global perspective. Having grown up in an army family stationed around the world Jenny's seen a variety of life. She's at ease with all people and adapts to any environment.
Outside of work, Jenny and her family volunteer their time to various community initiatives including local fishing competitions; she supports the Lake Tarawera Sailing Trust and was a founding member of the Tarawera Playcentre set up approximately 20 years ago which is now the Community Centre.
The growth of internet and mobile technology has opened up the potential to offer extensive exposure, not just locally, but also nationally and internationally. To be successful and capture the right buyers, and achieve an optimum price for your property, however, can only be achieved by an agent who believes in the community and the area. Jenny’s passion for her area shines clearly as she presents her clients properties to a range of buyers.
Jenny is excited to be part of the Bayleys team and to align herself with the boutique business. Long been recognized as specialist marketers of New Zealand waterfront properties, the company's dedicated waterfront division caters for the needs of vendors and purchasers.
