Okere Waterfront - Relax & Unwind at Lake Rotoiti | House in Rotorua
3 Bedroom House in Okere Falls, Rotorua
Summary:
Stunning lakefront holiday home on the shores of Lake Rotoiti, Okere Falls. 3 bedrooms, chef's kitchen with 6-burner gas range, and a spectacular timber deck with glass balustrade and uninterrupted lake views. Kayaks, trampoline & direct water access included. Just 20 mins from Rotorua - the perfect NZ family escape.
The Space:
Perched directly on the edge of Lake Rotoiti at Okere Falls, this beautifully presented holiday home delivers one of the most spectacular settings in the Rotorua Lakes region. From the moment you arrive through the gated entrance, the vast blue expanse of the lake stretches out behind the house - and it never gets old.
Inside, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is the heart of the home. The chef's kitchen is genuinely impressive: a large marble-look island bench with four bar stools, a professional 6-burner dual-oven gas range with black rangehood and mirrored splashback, and full-height white cabinetry with every appliance you could need. Pendant lighting sets the mood, while oversized windows and sliding doors frame the lake at every turn. The dining table seats six, and the living area features a generous L-shaped sectional sofa, a log burner with guard for cooler evenings, a heat pump for year-round comfort, and a large flat-screen TV.
The home has three bedrooms, all freshly appointed. The master bedroom features a king bed with a luxe navy velvet headboard and a direct lake view through its window - wake up to the water every morning. The second bedroom also has a king bed with matching navy headboard and dresser. The third bedroom is set up as a twin, with two single beds - ideal for kids or extra guests. The bathroom is a highlight: a stylish freestanding soaking bath, a large rain shower with a black-framed sliding glass door, a backlit round mirror, and a floating timber vanity. Linen and towels are provided.
Outside is where this property really shines. The large timber deck wraps across the rear of the house and features frameless glass balustrade so nothing interrupts the lake view. There's a Weber BBQ, a picnic-style dining table with bench seating, a market umbrella, and plenty of space to sprawl in the sun. Steps lead down to a generous lawn that slopes gently to the lake's edge, where two kayaks are ready to launch. A full-size trampoline and a children's swing set complete the picture for families. The double garage includes internal laundry facilities (washer and dryer), plus a large additional storage/workshop space.
Guest Access:
Guests have exclusive use of the entire property: the main house, double garage, full laundry, all outdoor areas including the timber deck, lawn, and garden. Two kayaks are available for guest use with direct lake access from the property. The trampoline and swing set are included for family use. Off-street parking is available on the concrete driveway for multiple vehicles.
