Karaka barn with stables banner

When our clients made the decision to move from Remuera out to Karaka, they had their heart set on a beautiful stable complex over looking a fabulous arena.

There was an existing small barn already on the site that the owners wanted to keep in place as an ancillary building to support the main complex and offer storage for the more messy and mundane farm equipment.

The barn is appointed with;

  • 3 point entry/exit concrete breezeway
  • 4 large stables fully enclosed to 2.4m high, with sliding doors for equine entry and exit, sliding shutters for ventilation and light, complete with auto waterers, hay feeders and rubber stable comfort floors for ease of cleaning.
  • Dedicated wash bay with recessed LED lighting, equine solarium, 2 x hot/cold water hosing points, non slip equine safety flooring, and storage for shampoo, bottles, sponges etc
  • Feed room with built in feed bins, shelving for storage and sink
  • Rug room with built in cabinetry for storage of rugs, washing machine and dryer
  • Tack room with custom made saddle and bridle hanging, cubby units for keeping all the equine essentials tidy, full length workbench with sink, drawers and further storage
  • Down stairs WC
  • Access in to the covered truck bay
  • Access to the 65x30 Arena with free draining base, sand & GGT fibre riding surface and overhead irrigation.

The first floor incorporates a large open entertaining room with kitchenette – opening out onto a deck with a gorgeous view over the arena, two very generous rooms for home gym equipment and office space, fully appointed bathroom and separate toilet, store cupboard and access into the roof space.

The landscaping was carefully thought out to optimise drainage and control of surface water.
