This Gavin Cooper designed home successfully joins the built and natural environments in a style typical of rural Hawke’s Bay. Due to the elevation of the living space and twin decking areas, this 4 bedroom home is lifted above the surrounding landscaped gardens and native vegetation.
Internally the design optimises the rural views. The large floor to ceiling double glazed windows provide for a light open feel which is complemented by the use of over height doors with wood work in brushed pine.
The open living space (incorporating a living/dining area), the simple natural colour scheme, recessed lighting and extensive outdoor terraces overlooking the natural bush further provides for the sense of space. The modern bespoke kitchen has a central plinth differentiating it from the living/dining area.
One of the two en-suite bedrooms is set above the living area, allowing the room to be independent, ideally suited to visitors. All bathrooms are tiled and finished to a high level with the main en-suite bath enjoying views across the hills.
