HAMR Home Building Contractors with Diana Blake have created This beautiful home as the perfect seaside retreat. The owners have designed and built this 512sqm home with future climate and weather conditions in mind. The steel and cedar cladding can withstand wind and sun, and the multiple covered deck areas allow for outdoor living, whether it’s raining or shining. The use of NZWindows joinery throughout the home allows for an abundance of natural light.
Solar panels capture 16kW of power from sunshine, and batteries connected to an import/export system mean excess power can be exported out. The house can fully run on batteries in a power cut. The garage has an EV charger, and solar energy can be controlled remotely, ensuring the pool, spa, and heat pumps are always at the perfect temperature. Good insulation, NZWindows double glazing, and a clean air wood fire in the living room keep the home cosy in winter. For fishing enthusiasts, there’s a separate boat shed and outdoor fish filleting area.
