A villa located in suburban Northcote Point on Aucklands north shore. The unassuming street presence gives very little away, upon arrival the hallway leads you into another time and place. The villa dissolves and the harbour beckons, you could be mistaken for thinking you are at the beach. What happened... are we on Waiheke?
"Behind the doors of an unassuming villa in Northcote Point, the hall of this existing family home is stripped back to its pure form and bathed in natural light. The existing rooms are revived with bold colours and natural textures, while an elegant gabled extension brings a sense of coastal retreat to the everyday experience. Warm timber ceilings and beautifully crafted cabinetry envelope the space, which is grounded by natural stone floors. Expansive glazing opens to stunning views of the bush and harbour."
