By Salmond Reed Architects
Delicately situated on a quiet bay on Waiheke Island, this listed Georgian sea seaside cottage was sympathetically restored and updated with modern conveniences.
There are very few surviving cottages of this era. Our approach to the restoration of this cottage was both discrete and authentic, seeking no greater scale than the original. The interventions sought to ensure both amenity for the present owners and to ensure its continued existence in the unique coastal character of Waiheke’s eastern end.
