Introducing the Stunning One Tree Point Waterfront Project by Cogan Custom Homes

Completed in 2022, this contemporary masterpiece showcases the best of waterfront living, designed by Maxar Architecture of Waipu. The home takes full advantage of breathtaking views of Whangarei Harbour, offering exceptional indoor/outdoor living options that cater to New Zealand’s variable weather conditions. As Craig Cogan, owner of Cogan Custom Homes, notes, "Having multiple outdoor areas protected from different wind directions is essential for fully enjoying the outdoors." This design ensures unobstructed views through expansive glass sliders, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor spaces.

Developed during the challenging post-COVID period of product supply issues, the builders adeptly navigated delays in cladding by introducing FPS rab building wrap, allowing internal work to proceed while the exterior was still being completed.

Inside, the high-ply grooved ceilings in the living room, paired with upper electric windows, create a sense of grandeur and spaciousness, making this home a true sanctuary by the sea. Emphasizing a modern design aesthetic, the project perfectly balances style and functionality, ideal for those seeking a luxurious beach house focused on outdoor living.

The striking exterior features a combination of cedar over ply cladding and BGC Stratum, applied both vertically and horizontally. Internally, engineered timber floors add warmth and character to the living spaces.

Client involvement was a key element throughout the project, with interior designer Katrina from Covet & Crave Studio enhancing the home’s modern feel while honoring the clients' tastes. Craig encourages clients to collaborate with interior designers: "Refining colors and choices can make a significant difference to the final product at a relatively small cost in relation to the overall project value."

This One Tree Point Waterfront project is a testament to Cogan Custom Homes' commitment to excellence, creating a luxurious retreat that beautifully harmonizes with its stunning coastal surroundings.
