Riwaka's Secret

Built in 2008, the 210 square metre, two level, four double bedroom home is positioned to the north to enjoy all-day sun and views over lawn, gardens and trees to pasture, against a backdrop of the Takaka-Marahau hills.

Generous outdoor entertaining decks, measuring some 120 square metres, extend around two walls outside the living areas and office. Bench seating and walled gardens of hebes border the decks and a built-in spa pool.

There is a separate remote controlled double garage and workshop of approximately 70 square metres, with an attached woodshed and good-sized chicken run.

The house is warm, sunny and well insulated. Doors and windows are double-glazed, apart from glass panels in the front entry and louvre windows in the separate toilet. There are sliding windows throughout most of the house. Polished concrete floors gradually warm to store heat during the day, before slowing releasing it throughout the evening. To supplement the passive design, there is a very efficient Swedish Jotul wood burner, with a wet back facility and a heat transfer system from the living room to the downstairs hallway. Water is also solar heated.
