Kauri Road renovation and lift
A full-scale renovation and extension that transformed a modest hillside home into a modern, view-focused residence by lifting the existing house one metre and constructing a new level beneath.
Positioned on a steep section overlooking native bush and harbour views, the redesign centres around light, openness, and connection to the landscape. Large-format glazing and expansive decking maximise the outlook, while the reconfigured layout creates seamless indoor-outdoor flow for everyday living and entertaining.
Externally, the home has been completely refreshed with a bold, contemporary cladding palette, giving it a strong architectural presence while sitting comfortably within its surroundings. Internally, clean lines, modern finishes, and carefully considered detailing create a calm, functional living environment.
The result is a dramatic transformation. Retaining the original footprint while delivering a home that feels entirely new, both in scale and in the way it's lived in.
