NZ Architecture at its best
Designed by Andrew Patterson, this luxury family home is perfectly suited to people who need to be close to the real world, but who want to feel like it is another world away. Surrounded by acres of your own native bush this light and airy home features 3metre high full glass doors and windows which bring the most fantastic light into every room.
Carved into 8 acres (more or less) of native bush, the brief to internationally recognised architect Andrew Patterson was a simple one, to deliver the same geometric simplicity and sense of place as the painting did. The response, an exceptional home and environment, one that awakens the senses, and restores calm, all at the same time.
The 331sqm (more or less) home is a stunning masterpiece, yet incredibly welcoming and unpretentious. 3m high ceilings throughout, with full height stacker doors that recess into the fabric of the home, increasing the space of living areas and blurring the often unnecessary border between inside and out, and allowing your family to live, laugh and move about freely. The outlook at every angle is native trees and skyscape, framed deliberately by glass walls, and clean lines. Full height timber louvres follow the sun around during the day, and solid timber flooring provides comfort underfoot, a reminder that function as well as form has not been overlooked in any part of this home. The library, with natural light in abundance, is central, and is as much the heart of the home as the living areas, ahead of its time in providing an ideal work from home environment.
All four bedrooms, including the master with tiled ensuite, share the elevated and leafy outlook through full height windows, and huge storage in each keeps the clutter at bay.
Explore walking tracks through acres of native bush, and enjoy Tui, Kereru, quails and pheasants along the way. A visit is the only way to appreciate 343 Maungakawa Rd. Call Amanda to view!
