The Brick House Wanaka

Designed and certified as a Passive House, The Brick House has been carefully built to maintain a comfortable temperature throughout the year while using significantly less energy than a standard home. In winter, the house stays naturally warm, while in summer it remains cool and comfortable. The result is a calm, quiet environment that feels effortless to live in, no matter the season. For travellers seeking sustainable accommodation in Wanaka, it offers a genuine example of environmentally conscious design working seamlessly alongside modern luxury.

Inside, the open-plan living and dining area is spacious, light-filled, and designed around the spectacular views. Large windows frame the lake and mountains, creating a strong connection to the surrounding landscape. The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped for group stays, complete with a butler’s pantry that makes cooking and entertaining easy. A separate media room provides an additional space to relax, whether for movie nights or quiet afternoons indoors.

Outside, the terrace spa pool faces directly toward the mountains, while the outdoor fire and dining area create an inviting setting for long evenings under the Central Otago sky. The villa comfortably sleeps ten guests, with a master suite featuring a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, alongside two bunkrooms that work particularly well for families with children.

The Brick House is also ideally located for exploring the region. Cardrona Alpine Resort and Treble Cone ski field are both within easy reach, while Wanaka town centre is only minutes away for cafés, restaurants, wineries, and lakeside activities.
