S Residence

This stunning renovation completely transforms the home, featuring a full internal rebuild with a 5m extension to the living area. A new roof and full insulation ensure comfort, while two modern bathrooms and three spacious bedrooms provide functionality and style. The home sits on a large piece of north-west facing Grey Lynn land, making the most of natural light and outdoor spaces. It's a true sun trap, soaking in the sun throughout the say, which enhances the warmth and brightness of every room.

The owner was motivated to design a fully architecturally crafted home to test and showcase their residential development skills. After tendering to several architects, they chose Lloyd Hartley due to the strong connection and shared understanding of both vision and budget. The interior design was perfectly integrated into the architectural envelope, with seamless collaboration between the owner and Lloyd for months to define the home's design, amenities, and finishes.

Inside, native band-sawn natural oak Forte floors flow throughout the open living space, complemented by soaring 3m ceilings that create a bright, airy atmosphere. Large sliding windows and doors seamlessly connect the indoors to the sun-soaked deck, offering the perfect spot for entertaining. The kitchen features sleek, modern lines, while the bathrooms are designed in a luxurious Italian style, exuding elegance and sophistication. The floor is heated, adding an extra layer of comfort throughout the home.

The backyard has been elevated with a 1.8m raised lawn, supported by a retaining wall and poly rock, leading to a beautiful 8 x 2.8m pool and deck area. The pool is truly one of a kind, adding a unique and luxurious element to this private oasis, offering a perfect space for relaxation and enjoyment. This renovation perfectly balances modern design with practical living, creating a gorgeous home.
