One of New Plymouth's finest homes, perfectly summed up by Tina Turner: "Simply the best, better than all the rest."
Crowned Regional Supreme Winner and National Category Winner at the 2024 Registered Master Builders House of the Year Awards, this residence is a statement piece where every detail, every material, and every contributor is award-winning.
Designed by Tony Biesiek Imagine Architecture and expertly constructed by multi-national award-winning builders Petersen & Barnes, this architecturally designed three-bedroom residence exemplifies refined simplicity, intelligent design, and enduring quality.
The heart of the home is the designer kitchen by award-winning Rowson Kitchens & Joiners, featuring luxurious granite benchtops, bespoke cabinetry, integrated appliances, motorised drawers, dual wall ovens (including a steam oven), and an induction cooktop with downdraft extraction. Granite benchtops continue through to the bathrooms, reinforcing a sense of cohesion, durability, and timeless elegance throughout the home.
Soaring Ashin timber raked ceilings, carefully positioned skylights, and subtle integrated LED lighting create a light-filled, airy atmosphere that feels both grand and welcoming. The open-plan living spaces flow effortlessly to a sheltered louvred courtyard and beautifully landscaped, terraced gardens - bathed in all-day sun despite their south-facing position, a testament to the home's intelligent orientation.
Comfort and performance exceed industry standards, with above-code insulation, premium glazing, and a ducted heat pump system ensuring year-round efficiency and warmth. Thoughtful accessibility is seamlessly incorporated, including wide hallways, discreet handrails, and a three-level internal lift, future-proofing the home without compromising its architectural integrity.
The striking exterior of Yakisugi Japanese cedar cladding offers exceptional durability and low maintenance, while making a bold architectural statement - contrasted beautifully by heritage-style brick boundary detailing. A double garage, generous workshop or hobby space, and convenient nearby parking complete the practical features.
Located in a tightly held central city street just moments from Pukekura Park, the CBD, Coastal Walkway, cafés, and cultural amenities, this home delivers an unrivalled combination of award-winning design, premium materials, accessibility, and location. Backed by a 10-year Master Build Guarantee from the time of its construction, this is a rare opportunity to secure a nationally celebrated home that will continue to perform, impress, and endure for decades to come.
