A modern urban retreat in Christchurch, completed in 2023, featuring a striking blend of cedar weatherboard and dark cladding, maximizing space with a clever layout, abundant natural light, and seamless indoor-outdoor living for contemporary family living.

Expect the unexpected from this modern urban retreat, neatly tucked away down a back section. The exterior cedar weatherboard immediately catches your eye as it contrasts beautifully with the dark Scyon Stria Cladding and dark tray ceiling to create a modern, sleek aesthetic. The interior flips this narrative as it envelops you in white, bright, calming serenity.

This cleverly designed home redefines the notion that big living requires a large section. Skillfully designed for the cityscape, the clever architecture maximizes every inch. The thoughtfully crafted floor plan places the living areas, study/office, and a convenient powder room (one of the three bathrooms) on the ground floor. The upstairs reveals a sanctuary of bedrooms, the master suite and a luxurious main bathroom.

Natural light and warmth flood the living spaces thanks to the entire back wall of glass stacker doors which open out to an expansive Kwila deck, seamlessly merging the indoor & outdoor spaces, an entertainer's paradise. The kitchen boasts ample bench space with a butlers pantry to hide away all the clutter. This home is the epitome of modern, functional, family living without the large footprint.

“Josh and his team built our house in Rosemerryn Lincoln. The guys did an excellent job with their attention to detail and constant communication. Josh kept us updated on costs and maintained works within our budget while allowing us to revise items as we progressed.”
