About This Property
This White Modern house is a deceptively simple and carefully crafted piece of architecture that stands strongly in a powerful landscape.The driveway brings you into 2.1 hectares* of grassy dunescape which has been planted with hundreds of young, mostly native, trees and shrubs in vibrant green outcrops, any flowers being restricted to white.
The house, designed by Sam Kebbell of KebbellDaish is carefully sited on the side of the highest dune, which has stunning views of the sea and Kapiti Island; and the vegetable garden, which explodes with colour.
The two wings of the L-shaped plan enclose a sunny and sheltered courtyard that extends the living space.
The generous decks around the perimeter gracefully connect the house to both the planted areas and to the landscape in general.
The house gives a nod to modern architectural icons, but stands alone in it's beauty and simplicity.
