Waikanae House banner

This new house on the Kapiti Coast is situated on a newly sub-divided rear site. Designed as a high-quality investment property for the owners of the original site, the new single storey, 3-bedroom house is designed to appeal to a range of potential occupants. On approach, the house is modest in scale and form with a simple palate of practical materials. Upon entry is a large open plan living space with large expanses of floor to ceiling glazing opening out onto generous areas of external decking which wrap around the house and gently step down to spacious yards to the north and west. A high, vaulted ceiling through this space increases the sense of volume and spaciousness
