5A Snowdon Road, Fendalton, Christchurch

A Masterful Design Creation On 2,605sqm

This iconic house represents the culmination, in both design and building method, of Warren and Mahoney's block-work mode. Built in 1976 the house was to be substantial, with all the attributes of the commercial buildings of the era, the resulting deep-section in-situ concrete beams on concrete block walls with flat roofs beyond is recognisably derived from the work at Christchurch College. The double-height living room - expressed externally by the central tall window and full-height piers - extends through an enfilade of sliding doors to living areas at both ground and first floor levels. Either side of these central zones are bookends of master bedroom/bath/dressing and kitchen/family rooms respectively, with office, children's and guest bedrooms arranged along the upper floor.

Viewing by appointment.
