With a unique gullwing roofline that silhouettes the shape of the section, this home, situated in the Te Whariki subdivision of Lincoln, has a real sense of place. The exterior cladding of natural timbers, white geometric brick and grey Colorsteel mirrors the tones of the surrounding landscape with considered simplicity and creates a striking and appealing front facade. The house design was governed by the section shape and the desire to make the most of the wonderful outlook to the wetlands reserve and the northerly aspect. A private entry with feature painted-brick cladding to the rear wall escorts you to the primary living space where a sleek central kitchen with honed benchtops and malachite green tiles forms a hub of family living.

Warm timber floors run throughout the space with abundant light coming in from extensive glazing that perfectly frame the surrounding reserves and wetlands. Outdoor areas are abundant with the primary living area, second lounge and main bedroom all opening to decks that provide a place to enjoy the great outdoors at all times of the day. Two bedrooms, a bathroom and powder room sit behind the living area with the main suite enjoying the luxury of the adjacent wing it shares with the garage.
