This hill build offers breath-taking views of Akaroa Harbour and an open living and kitchen area that leads onto a spacious deck for outdoor living and entertainment. It's a unique and stylish space that balances comfort and natural beauty, perfect for peaceful retreats and luxurious entertaining.

This out-of-town project required thorough planning for project management and material orders.
