Magical Section Secured
With a magical section secured and plans of designing and building their dream home in New Plymouth’s exclusive coastal farm community of Tapuae Country Estate, couple Pete and Claire were excited to embark on their journey with Landmark.
“Owners Pete and Claire found the land and approached Landmark to Design and Build it for them,” Scott says. “Originally, they wanted to build a large Tuscan-style home using the Te Anau Ready to Build Plan. When their circumstances changed, they didn’t want to lose their section, so we pivoted direction and built a beach-style holiday home that focuses on the views.”
Trusted Team
With unforeseen circumstances seeing the couple moving north before building began, it was up to the trusted team at Landmark’s New Plymouth & Taranaki franchise to craft the breath taking bach.
“It was a bit sad when the clients left,” Scott says. “That day, they came into the office and reviewed the plans. They were happy and said go ahead and get it done. Pete and Claire put a lot of faith in us, and we were happy to repay their trust with this incredible holiday home.”
Stone's Throw From The Sea
Just a stone’s throw from the sea, the modern four bedroom home nestles perfectly into the landscape. Its elongated style, separated into two distinct wings, and large sliding glass doors maximise the natural light and make the most of the views from every angle.
“One of the standouts of this build, apart from the view,” Scott says, “is the covered portico connected to the open-plan lounge and kitchen. A three-sided shelter lets the couple enjoy the spectacular scenery without worrying about the elements.”
