Ideal for small families or couples, The Alps is a beautifully crafted home in Lake Tekapo offering a perfect blend of contemporary style, comfort and relaxation. Architecturally designed, this light, airy, spacious property is kept cozy with underfloor heating throughout and a heat pump. Unwind on the covered, sheltered deck with comfortable seating, taking in the superb views of the surrounding mountains or Tekapo’s renown night sky. Indoors, enjoy a selection of board games or relax in the luxurious deep bath at the end of a day exploring. The fully equipped kitchen provides the independence of preparing your own meals, or choose to walk the short distance (10 minutes) down to the village centre to sample some of the wonderful eateries on offer. Additional amenities include gas hot water, a separate toilet, laundry and a drying room excellent for ski or water gear. Located on a quiet street in the heart of Tekapo, The Alps is the perfect base for exploring all that the Mackenzie has to offer.
