Alpine Elegance at Millbrook Resort

Resort Living at Its Finest

This stunning property sits within the prestigious Millbrook Resort, just minutes from historic Arrowtown in Central Otago. Architecturally designed by renowned Mason & Wales and constructed by award-winning AJ Saville Builders, the home features expansive living spaces that capture panoramic mountain views toward the Cardrona Valley and Crown Range.

The home flows seamlessly between indoor and outdoor spaces, with vaulted ceilings, natural materials, and premium finishes throughout. Multiple outdoor terraces and entertaining areas take full advantage of the dramatic Central Otago landscape and the resort's world-class amenities.

The Perfect Centrepiece

Set within the generous outdoor living area, the Burton fireplace anchors the space while drawing the eye to the sweeping mountain views beyond. The location creates perfect sightlines from both the indoor living spaces and outdoor lounging areas, making it a natural gathering point for guests.

For this installation, Mason & Wales specified custom cladding that harmonises with the property's sophisticated architectural palette. The Burtons' clean, minimalist lines complement the home's contemporary aesthetic while providing the robust heating performance needed for those crisp Central Otago evenings.

Custom-built wood storage boxes integrate seamlessly with the design, serving both practical and aesthetic purposes while keeping the entertaining area visually cohesive.

Precision Installation

This project required careful coordination to ensure our Burton fireplace integrated flawlessly with the existing architecture. The custom cladding needed to align perfectly with the property's material palette while accommodating the technical requirements of the fireplace.

The custom wood storage boxes required additional planning to ensure they provided adequate storage while maintaining sight lines across the entertaining area. Every detail was considered to create a cohesive outdoor living space that would serve this alpine property for years to come.

Built for Alpine Conditions

Our Burton fireplace delivers exactly what's needed for Central Otago's climate. The innovative 6mm steel firebox with double-skinned backplate directs heat efficiently across the expansive outdoor entertaining spaces, while the custom cladding creates a sophisticated anchor point for the entire outdoor living area.

Whether hosting intimate gatherings or larger celebrations, this installation provides the perfect focal point for outdoor entertaining at one of New Zealand's most prestigious alpine destinations.
