Modern Lakefront Sophistication

Waihola House 1 is a striking contemporary home situated on the edge of Lake Waihola, offering a perfect blend of high-end architectural design and practical, high-performance living. Built by LF Builders in 2025, this home reflects our commitment to bringing premium architectural concepts to life across the wider Otago region.

The design utilises a sophisticated combination of local feature stonework (schist) and low-profile modern roof lines to mirror the textures of the surrounding Otago landscape.

Built for Thermal Performance and Lakeside Living

Oriented to track the sun and frame the stunning lake views, the home features expansive glazing along its entire northern face. The low-pitch roof lines allow the home to sit discreetly in its environment, while inside, the polished floors, advanced insulation, and precision-engineered building envelope ensure premium energy efficiency and comfort year-round.

Key Construction Features:

• Hand-laid feature schist masonry providing timeless aesthetic value and structural mass.

• Low-profile architectural roof design optimising local council height-plane requirements.

• Thermally broken wide-span glass facades showcasing lake vistas.

• Meticulous waterproofing and foundation engineering suited for lakeside environments
