4 Kathleen Place

Set in the highly desirable Kathleen Place cul-de-sac, this beautifully renovated three-bedroom home captures everything you want in a Taupo holiday escape, a relaxed lifestyle, sunshine, and space for everyone.

All the hard work has been done, with refreshed interiors, modern lighting, new flooring and carpet giving this much-loved Lockwood home a contemporary edge. The light-filled kitchen is the hub of the home, featuring a central island, freestanding oven, and a well-designed scullery, perfect for entertaining family and friends.

Open-plan living flows easily to a generous, sun-soaked deck that’s ideal for summer BBQs or quiet morning coffees. The section is private and low-maintenance, framed by established trees for that perfect mix of comfort and seclusion.

There are three double bedrooms, including a master with ensuite and walk-in robe, while a stylish family bathroom serves the rest of the home. Double glazing, a firebox, and a heat pump keep things cosy through the cooler months.

A bonus sleep-out or garage adds extra versatility, making it perfect for guests, a hobby space, or storing the lake toys. Plus plenty of space for additional parking.

From here, it’s an easy stroll to the lakefront, the Two Mile Bay Sailing Centre, and the Kokomea Park shopping precinct with its cafes and amenities. Taupo township and the boat ramp are just a few minutes’ drive away, making this one of the most convenient and sought-after spots in Rainbow Point.

Effortless, modern, and ready to enjoy, this is the ideal holiday home or permanent retreat.
