The Dacha Overview

The Dacha is a spectacular modern holiday home built on a vantage point looking over Lake Wanaka and the surrounding mountains – if ever there was a place to fully drink in those “Lord of the Rings” vistas, this is it. If the views of magnificent, the villa itself does not pale in comparison. With vast living areas, high ceilings and seemingly endless windows looking out to the lake and mountain range, the villa is the dictionary definition of luxe modern living. The villa offers a total of six bedrooms graciously sprinkled across the expansive property. The ample living areas offer the perfect setting for relaxed get-togethers with friends and family, with a cosy stone fireplace, pizza oven and a private swimming pool to keep the whole group entertained. Though surrounded by pristine natural beauty as far as the eye can see, the villa is within easy reach of downtown Wanaka along with world-class golf and skiing.

The Dacha Living

The Dacha has been meticulously designed to make the most of the spectacular views, with living areas lined with full-wall glass looking out to the spellbinding lake. Both the architecture and décor are effortlessly contemporary, with natural materials and a glowing fireside adding a touch of warmth and comfort.

Living Room

The living room is a fluid space connecting seamlessly to the dining areas and kitchen. The space is lined with glass bi-fold doors which can be fully opened to allow the room to connect with the scenic lake view terrace. The living room includes two light sofas and rich leather armchairs arranged around a statement fireplace and a flatscreen TV mounted above it. At the other end of this same space is another seating area, also flanked by a fireplace and a TV. In the guest wing of the main house, the four bedrooms are built around a cosy TV lounge with an L-shaped sofa, a TV and a log burner.

Dining Room

As well as offering multiple living areas, the villa also provides a variety of dining settings to choose from. The first is a long dining table housed in the main living room, flanked by full-wall windows on one side and the villa’s fully-equipped kitchen on the other. Close by in the second living room lounge, a second dining table offers an equally scenic setting framed by windows looking out to the lake. For alfresco dining, there is a relaxed round dining table outside by the pool.

Garden

As is only fitting for a property with such spectacular surroundings, The Dacha offers ample opportunity for spending much of your time outdoors soaking up the scenery. The villa is surrounded by generous schist stone decks perfect for drinking in the views. The undeniable highlight is the outdoor pool which offers the best possible views of Lake Wanaka. For some added pampering, the villa also includes a Jacuzzi tub.
