Soak in luxury as the final rays of sunlight set snow-capped peaks aglow. Curl up with a book and a glass of red in front of the Stovax log burner. Or, simply gaze out over the ever-changing view; this is a space which invites quiet observation.
The property is amongst farm land and is around 10-15 minutes driving out of the village of Lake Tekapo. You will need to let us know of your arrival time in advance so we can meet you and guide you there. You will need a car to get to the property and to get around during your stay.
Designed by Dalman Architects, this home is tucked into the hillside as if it were as old as the land. True to its name, much of the Bunker is subterranean, with the rest blending into a harmony of native tussock.
Everything about this space is a celebration of its surroundings. Constructed primarily of exposed concrete and timber, the interior showcases raw elegance, while its singular glass front expands into uninterrupted views: thousands of hectares of golden highland stretching to the foot of Mt Stevenson and the beginning of the Southern Alps.
There are not many places left to be alone with the stars, but with no single other light visible from the house, the Bunker is one of them. There is simply no better spot to sit beneath the night sky. This is a haven of true solitude, a triumph of design, and a cozy refuge. Book now to secure your stay.
