A stunning coastal residence designed for extreme weather, featuring a central courtyard pool, five bedrooms with sea views, and award-winning architecture that harmonizes with its cliffside location.

This house was designed in response to an extremely demanding site. Located at the top of a sea-side cliff, the site was exposed to very strong winds and weather conditions.

Our design was based on a house wrapped around three sides of a central courtyard containing a swimming pool with the northern side left open.  This provided much-needed shelter from the wind while creating a sunny outdoor space around the pool.

In addition to the elements, the site was a compact site with limited vehicle access. A car turntable was a clever design feature to resolve any access issues.

This 365sqm home boasts five bedrooms and four high-spec bathrooms. The main living areas (lounge, dining, kitchen and bar window) are positioned to maximize the amazing views the site offers. Of the five bedrooms, three have sea views, with the master bedroom being in prime position, with its ensuite bathroom showcasing a stunning freestanding bath. Floating stairs lead up to the lounge, while downstairs houses a second living space and gourmet kitchen and scullery.

Careful consideration was made in the choice of materials used, schist and cedar add strong exterior appeal, and the use of glass is prominent, which allows views from multiple locations within the house.  Quality insulation ensures a warm, energy-efficient home.

This home received the Registered Master Builders – House of the year, GOLD RESERVE AWARD 2017 & GOLD AWARD 2017 for a New House over $2M in the Auckland/Northland region.

“VERY PROFESSIONAL" We have enjoyed a very good working relationship with the Cadman Design team for the past 10 years. In this time Cadman has designed for our mutual clients many projects, new luxury homes, minor dwellings, renovations and extensions, a subdivision of land and a commercial retail development. Cadman has also carried out design work for my family personally with the designs for a renovation to our existing home and a new minor dwelling for our lifestyle property in Okura. We have found the team to be very professional to deal with and have savoured the fact that Cadman is willing to work with us - the project managers, to achieve a good quality design for the clients to a budget they can afford. Cadman's attention to detailing along with their ability to produce clear legible specification and an easily read set of plans make building their designs very easy. Our clients have always spoken highly of the Cadman team and have found them easy to get along with, they are very capable of producing the dream home our clients want to live in. A testament to this is that Cadman Architectural Design recently completed the design for 3 town houses which are close to the end of their construction program, and have just completed the design for a clients lifestyle property in Silverdale which is due to go in for consent. Both personally and on behalf of our company Frontline Projects Limited we would have no problems what so ever in recommending Cadman Architectural Design for future design work.”
