The Hills, Arrowtown

Set against a spectacular 360-degree alpine backdrop near Arrowtown, this generous yet understated retreat is designed to sit quietly within the Central Otago landscape. Its low-profile forms are arranged around a sheltered central courtyard, creating privacy and protection from the elements while maintaining a strong connection to the surrounding mountains. A separate guest wing, comprising three bedrooms and its own lounge, allows the home to adapt easily for visiting family and multi-generational living.

A restrained palette of schist, cedar, oak and blackened steel anchors the house firmly to its setting, while expansive glazing and clerestory windows draw in natural light and frame the views. At the heart of the home, the kitchen and living spaces open effortlessly to the courtyard for relaxed entertaining, complemented by a cosy fireside snug and thoughtfully integrated wine cellar. The result is a warm, enduring home that balances quiet luxury with the comfort and practicality of an alpine retreat.
