The Remarkables rise directly behind 5 McKellar Drive, a striking backdrop for a home that gets the fundamentals right. It was designed by David Stringer Architects and has been thoughtfully improved by the current owners. You get easy single-level living, sun on three sides and a layout that genuinely works for families.  Warm cedar weatherboards, schist stone and a Alpine Tray roof give the home its classic Jack’s Point character. Inside, the kitchen, dining and living pavilion sits beneath a soaring vaulted ceiling with black steel portal frames and skylights that pull light deep into the room. Polished concrete floors and timbre floorboards run throughout. The kitchen is made for gathering, with a waterfall island seating five, a gas hob, gloss cabinetry with soft under-lighting, and a walk-in pantry that keeps the everyday out of sight.  This is a warm home with three heat-pumps, four electric underfloor heating zones (plus downstairs bathrooms) and a gas fire.   Wide sliders open north, east and west onto a sweeping wraparound deck. It includes a covered outdoor dining area and plenty of room to lounge, framed by glass balustrading and established hedging. Beyond it, a level lawn and a schist-paved courtyard with an outdoor fireplace create a second living space, and a tucked-away hot tub is ready for clear alpine nights.  The bedrooms sit in their own wing, well away from the living spaces. The master suite has a walk-in wardrobe, an en-suite and its own slider out to the deck. Two further double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes share a family bathroom with a bath and twin vanities, and there’s a separate guest WC off the hallway. A light-filled bay window gives the kids, or a home office, a space of their own.  Above the double garage, a second living area with a bedroom with its own en-suite and wardrobe offers real separation. It’s ideal for guests, teenagers, working from home or a movie night.  Practicalities are well covered: a separate laundry, internal garage access, solar hot-water, and a reconfigured driveway with a generous turning bay.  McKellar Drive is a quiet, established pocket of Jack’s Point. You’re moments from the trail network, the Clubhouse and the championship golf course, with Queenstown an easy drive away.  Deadline Sale: Closes 2:00 p.m. Friday 27 November 2026 (unless sold prior)
