Local life in the Upper Clutha
For Sarah, there is no better place to raise her three children than right here. When she isn’t in the office, she’s usually making the most of the region with her family. You’ll often find them out on the lake, enjoying a classic Kiwi summer biking and camping, or heading up Mount Iron for a walk to take in the local views.
Her deep roots in the community help her stay switched-on to what locals care about. She is proud to be part of the team that helps people find their place in Wānaka real estate, from family homes in Albert Town to quiet retreats in Lake Hāwea.
