Here’s how to marry country and contemporary in one beautiful home. The 312sqm H-shaped house on the rural outskirts of the city offers the very best of both styles. The warm country vibe is obvious from the start. Band-sawn macrocarpa weatherboards are teamed with Belgian tumbled bricks and long-run steel roofing. The contemporary aspect comes courtesy of a pavilion design and the very latest in modern conveniences and decor. A recess in the H-shape makes an inviting entrance while the niche on the other side is an impressive outdoor room with skylights, heater, furniture and tiled level-entry access to the lounge, family and dining spaces as well as the main-bedroom suite. The matte-grey kitchen with hidden walk-in pantry has designer delights such as splashbacks made from copper mosaic tiles and feature LED strip lighting throughout. Sliding timber barn-style doors, engineered oak flooring and recycled items throughout the house, including wooden beams sourced and repurposed from the local Awapuni Racecourse Ascot stand, reinforce the warm country theme. With five bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living spaces, kids’ retreat, separate laundry and a double garage, the home also meets the needs of a growing family.

Macrocarpa and Lusitanica (cuppressus) are native trees of California and Mexico respectively. Common name is Monterey Cypress and Mexican Cypress. Most plantation Cypress grown in Northern NZ is Lusitanica. Also available in restricted supply is Lawson Cypress. All are structurally stable and strong and classed as moderately durable. ie Have a natural durability(no chemical treatment) similar to H3.1 treated Radiata pine.

MacDirect supplies products for the whole house build . From Framing (SG8 verified on request) cladding, paneling, flooring, and all joinery . Most prefer the distinctive natural look of knotty macrocarpa/cypress but clears are also available especially in joinery and for weatherboard. Large size beams/posts up to 400x400 can be supplied.

A pre-coating service in a quality penetrating woodoil is available and we strongly recommend this for decking in particular but also for cladding. Macrocarpa can be painted traditionally.

Cypress (known in NZ as Mac) historically proven, now rediscovered by the discerning designer/builder.
