Peace and tranquillity abound
in this home in The Lakes,
Tauranga, winner of a Silver
Award in the Gib Showhome
category. An elegant natural
palette ties the interior and
exterior together, and connects
the house to its surroundings.
Multiple outdoor spaces offer
a choice of covered alfresco
dining or sun-soaked solitude.
Intelligently designed, this
208m 2 modern family home has
three bedrooms, two bathrooms
and two living spaces. As well as
a media lounge, there’s the cen-
tral kitchen-dining-family hub.
The scullery-laundry’s clever
design links directly to the
garage and outdoors, keeping
messy jobs behind the scenes.
The home’s super energy-
efficient heating includes a
condensing boiler that runs
radiators in the main bedroom
and open-plan living spaces.
