With stunning views, this is is a manor whose construction and refinements match its grand scale. The panorama sweeps up the Dart River, into the Southern Alps, and across Lake Wakatipu.

Every piece of wood in the house is finely finished, from walls to ceilings, built-in cabinets, shelving, bars, and benches. Oak flooring from England features tongue and groove planking along with herringbone and parquet designs.
