The magic of Queenstown…

Situated on the shores of New Zealand’s third-largest lake, Lake Wakatipu, and surrounded by the Remarkables mountain range, Queenstown is renowned for its stunning natural beauty.

Queenstown's history is steeped in the Central Otago gold rush, which began in 1862, when the discovery of gold in the Arrow River led to a rapid influx of miners, prospectors and entrepreneurs from across the globe. This era saw the establishment of numerous settlements and infrastructure, leaving an indelible mark on the region's cultural and architectural landscape. Just a short drive from Queenstown, Arrowtown is a charming historic village that preserves much of its gold rush heritage. Visitors can wander through the well-preserved streets lined with historic buildings, visit the Lakes District Museum & Art Gallery, or try their hand at gold panning in the Arrow River.

In recent decades, Queenstown has earned the title of the adventure capital of the world, leveraging its stunning natural environment as a sought-after destination for travelers seeking adventure and scenic beauty. Today, the area offers a range of adrenaline-pumping activities like bungee jumping, skydiving, white-water rafting and jet boating. One of New Zealand’s most popular ski destinations, the Remarkables Ski area, offers breathtaking views and excellent ski conditions. Visitors can take a ride on the iconic Skyline Gondola, for panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes. Although a bit of a drive away, Queenstown is a popular base for trips to the stunning Milford Sound, considered one of the most beautiful places on Earth.

Queenstown's stunning scenery has attracted filmmakers worldwide, featuring prominently in Peter Jackson's "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy and "The Hobbit" series. But its appeal extends beyond Middle-earth, as the town's diverse landscapes have served as backdrops for various films, TV shows, and commercials. Visitors can explore these iconic locations and experience the magic of cinema amidst real-life beauty.

Queenstown boasts a vibrant culinary scene, offering a diverse array of dining experiences that showcase both local flavors and international cuisines. From upscale restaurants to cozy cafes, there's something to satisfy every palate in this foodie paradise. Some popular spots to check out in Queenstown include Rata, Fergburger and Steamer Wharf. Queenstown is also renowned for quality coffee and delicious sweet treats. You may catch us discussing financial aspirations with our clients at local spots like Marmolada Cafe, odd saint or Bespoke Kitchen.

Despite its small size, Queenstown has a vibrant and diverse community, made up of locals and expats from around the globe. Living in Queenstown often means prioritising work-life balance and quality of life. Many residents choose to live in Queenstown for its relaxed pace of life and abundant recreational opportunities, balancing their careers with outdoor adventures and leisure pursuits.

Queenstown offers a diverse range of schooling options to accommodate the needs and preferences of families with children from kindergarten through to Year 13 (ages 5 to 18). There are several primary schools that provide education to students from Year 1 to Year 6, such as Queenstown Primary School, Shotover Primary School and Remarkables Primary School as well as Wakatipu High School that caters to older children up to Year 13.

The real estate market in Queenstown reflects the town's status as a highly desirable destination, drawing both residents and investors alike. In terms of property types, Queenstown offers a diverse range to cater to different preferences and budgets. From luxurious lakeside estates and secluded mountainside retreats to suburban family homes and modern inner-city apartments, there's something to suit every lifestyle. Demand for property in Queenstown is high, but it's tempered by geographical constraints due to it being nestled among mountains and lakes which restricts available land for development. Consequently, property prices have steadily appreciated over the years which has made investing in Queenstown properties appealing for buyers seeking long-term capital growth.
