After selling their orchard, our clients desired their next home to embody the timeless elegance of a classic NZ villa. They engaged Heritage Homes Far North, bringing in Arcline Architecture to collaborate on designing this heritage beauty set in the scenic landscape of Kerikeri, Northland.

The home stands as a testament to innovative design, seamlessly blending traditional charm with modern sophistication. It represents a successful fusion of 21st-century styling within the quintessential New Zealand villa aesthetic.

From the moment you enter the driveway, the home exudes balance and clean lines. Symmetry is evident in the matching pillars at the gate, window and door sizes, and chimneys. The dark grey Colorsteel roof harmonizes with the vertical base boards, while contrasting white James Hardie Linea Oblique cladding sets a tone of enduring tradition.

Detailed touches abound, including boxed exterior corners and colonial decorative features on the stair balustrade. The expansive verandahs feature hardwood decking and raking ceilings with exposed rafters. Identical chimneys clad in EZPanel and adorned with custom-made chimney cowls further enhance the home's character.

Inside, the interiors showcase masterful design with timber accents, glossy white cabinetry, and open shelves that add contemporary flair. Natural hues dominate shared spaces, while personalized touches in private areas reflect the owners' individual style. Timeless finishes like a brass faucet over a modern bathroom basin bridge the old-world charm with modern convenience.

The well-proportioned rooms seamlessly connect to the verandahs, offering effortless indoor-outdoor living. Beyond the house, a delightful surprise awaits with a hot tub and additional outdoor amenities, perfect for family relaxation and entertaining.

This residence epitomizes traditional charm, classic elegance, and timeless sophistication.
