Designed with both performance and longevity in mind, this striking Wellington home targets Passive House certification using a combination of ICF and SIP construction. The design responds thoughtfully to the site and the clients’ desire to create a home they can enjoy in their retirement.
Accessibility has been carefully considered throughout. The ground floor includes a generous master suite with walk-in wardrobe, a separate bathroom, and a flexible room that can function as an office or third bedroom, while a lift connects the levels to ensure ease of movement as needs change over time.
Upstairs, the home opens to expansive living spaces positioned to capture sweeping views across Wellington Harbour. The kitchen, dining and living areas sit proudly at the front of the home, complemented by a large walk-in pantry and seamless flow to surrounding decks. A separate lounge and library provides a quiet retreat and opens directly onto an innovative green roof lawn that extends above the garage, creating a unique connection between the interior and landscape.
With outdoor spaces wrapping the home and spectacular harbour views as a backdrop, the design balances comfort, performance and long-term livability.
