02The Lake

Walk to
the water.

The beach, the boat ramp and the jetty are all within walking distance. Just a few of the reasons people have been coming to this part of the lake for generations.

Summer on the water.
Winter on the mountain.

Boat ramps, a store for the essentials, a playground and a tennis court for the kids. Everything lake life actually needs is close by, with Taupō one way and Mt Ruapehu the other.

05Built to Last

A setting
worth protecting.

Protective covenants on every section mean the setting that drew you here is the one your neighbours are building into too.

Piwaka Place is developed by Bruce Bartley & Co, the team behind LochEagles and Seven Oaks in Kinloch, and brings the same environmental standards to Kuratau.
