Timeless Design by the Sea

Framed by the sweeping beauty of Papamoa Beach and the rolling Papamoa Hills, this beachside residence embodies relaxed coastal elegance. Designed for effortless entertaining and everyday living, it reflects the lifestyle of its owners—respected local restaurateurs known for their passion for hosting and hospitality.

At the heart of the home, a bold gable structure with exposed macrocarpa trusses commands attention and frames spectacular upstairs views. Finely detailed cedar soffits welcome guests at the entrance, while sleek Nu-Wall cladding in a refined 'flaxpod tone provides a durable, architectural finish with coastal resilience.

Inside, the interiors are warm and thoughtfully composed—European vintage furnishings, soft linens, and natural textures work together to evoke a sense of comfort, character, and calm. Every space has been carefully considered to enhance connection, whether for family gatherings or elegant seaside soirées.

This home is a celebration of coastal architecture—modern yet timeless, functional yet beautiful. A place where ocean views meet artisanal detail, and where every element is designed for living well by the sea.
