Falstaff House
By Faulkner Construction
The practical and the peerless go hand in hand in this top-shelf rejuvenation and extension of a waterfront property. Such is the impact of the major project, if you didn’t know you were in an eastern Auckland suburb, you’d think this was a five-star tropical resort. How did Faulkner Construction pull off the wow-factor transformation? Let’s start with the north-facing area with the existing pool and palms. The project team crafted a water-facing extension that ties so seamlessly with the existing living and dining areas it looks like it has always been there. Sliders, skylights, clerestory windows and bifolds ensure this room with a raked ceiling is bright and breezy. Adjoining this space and connected by bifolds is a new cabana with a barbecue and outdoor fireplace. Together, this is entertaining central.
Outside, the new deck and upgraded pool fencing markedly enhance the outdoor visual appeal. The magic was worked elsewhere, too. Included in the work: the main-bedroom suite was extended, new lounge roof beams were installed, the kitchen was given a contemporary refit and bathrooms were upgraded. This renovation project achieves a balance of comfort and style, pragmatism and luxury. Now the owners have a 477sqm home with five bedrooms, three bathrooms, three living areas and a whole lot of craftsmanship.
