Rare dual-title lakefront living


Auction to be held at 4:00pm, Friday 27 November 2026 (unless sold prior)
44 Roberts Street, Taupo

Tucked quietly away from State Highway One and unfolding to the water's edge, this exceptional Waitahanui estate offers a rare combination of scale, privacy and permanence on Lake Taupō.

Positioned amongst tightly held lakefront properties, this pocket of shoreline speaks volumes about its desirability. Two neighbouring properties have been held for over 35 years, another for more than 80 years, while our vendor has proudly owned this estate for over four decades - a rare reflection of long term stewardship and the enduring appeal of this remarkable setting.

Comprising two titles totalling approximately 3,454sqm, with a combined land value of $3,630,000 (July 2026), the property enjoys Riparian Rights and direct lake access.

The substantial architecturally designed residence, re-built in the mid 1990s, is configured for both permanent living and private retreat, offering generous proportions and flexibility for families or multi-generational living.

Expansive indoor and outdoor living connects seamlessly to the lakefront, while a separate cottage provides additional accommodation - ideal for guests, extended family or a live-in caretaker or gardener.

A tightly held, generational offering in one of Lake Taupō's most enduring lakefront positions.

Key Features:
•Exclusive lakefront position - one of only four properties along this tightly held lakefront fringe
