COMPLETED: 2024
BUILDER: Chris Swift Construction
LOCATION: LOWER HUTT
An awkward older house with kitchen and living areas at opposite ends was transformed into a warm, light-filled, modern home that harmoniously retained the character details that made this property unique.
Existing lead lights were relocated and double-glazing installed, a slumped floor was levelled and spaces rearranged to better suit the way 21st century families live and work in their homes.
A beautiful, classic kitchen became the heart of the home, with an open-plan dining room connecting to the outdoors via large glass doors.
A dedicated work-from-home space connects to the living areas and custom joinery houses the owner’s record collection, making this home a true reflection of the family’s unique needs and personality.
