208 Mapara Road, Acacia Bay, Taupō

Live, earn and entertain

This stunning property set on 8000sqm (more or less) of park like grounds, it is an impressive property featuring two fully consented homes (198sqm and 214sqm more or less) in a sought after location just ten minutes from town. From the moment you arrive via the tree-lined driveway, you're welcomed into a haven of light and leafy tranquility — all within easy reach of town, two boat ramps, the local store, restaurants, and cafés.

The main residence offers three generous bedrooms, including a master with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, an office nook, and two spacious living areas that flow seamlessly onto a north-facing deck and portico — ideal for outdoor living and entertaining. The expansive grounds also feature a woodshed, chicken coop, and garden shed.
Inside, exposed macrocarpa beams add timeless character and a sense of grandeur while still feeling warm and inviting. Double glazing, two heat pumps, and a wood burner keep the home cosy year round, while solar panels make hot water more economical. LED lighting throughout and new electric blinds are just some of the many upgrades.

Set apart from the main home for maximum privacy, the american style barn is surrounded by mature plantings and roses — a charming retreat that has been completely remodeled. It boasts a brand new kitchen with modern appliances, an updated bathroom, new flooring, and fresh paintwork. Two of its four bedrooms open onto Juliet balconies, and a wood burner with wetback plus a heat pump provide flexible heating options.

Beyond the grand barn doors lies a spacious recreation area, an additional bathroom, and a separate laundry. Fully insulated, the barn now has a divided storage/garage area to keep the guest space separate. To top it off, the barn is being sold fully furnished — offering an enticing turnkey opportunity.

This remarkable property is truly one of a kind, offering endless possibilities — whether you're seeking a home and income, a multi-generational living solution, a spacious family haven, or a savvy investment*.
