Coast Papamoa Lifestyle Home - House of the Year 2021

Papamoa

 

Congratulations to the team at JBH Building for the exceptional construction of this Papamoa home, designed in collaboration with the owners. Awarded a Gold Award in the House of the Year competition, this ICF home showcases outstanding build quality and finishing.

Located in the exclusive Coast Papamoa subdivision, this modern three-storey townhouse seamlessly blends strong geometric forms with a sophisticated traditional Kiwi design. The home maximizes the site’s potential while offering stunning views of the beach and Mount Maunganui.

The ground floor features a welcoming entrance, a spacious guest suite, a feature stairwell, and a triple garage with ample storage. The first level combines double bedrooms, bathrooms, and a main living area with indoor and outdoor spaces designed for optimal solar gain and protection from harsh sun. Expansive northwest-facing decks offer sweeping views of the beach and Mount Maunganui.

On the second level, the master suite offers unparalleled privacy and panoramic coastal views. A generous office space provides a quiet work environment, though the stunning views may make it hard to focus.

Constructed with a durable palette of Oamaru stone, Sto plaster, and cedar cladding, this home integrates effortlessly into its coastal surroundings. Contemporary yet relaxed, it promises a peaceful and enjoyable lifestyle for its owners.

Feedback from our client:

"To Andre, Steve and everyone at Creative Space. Our house in Papamoa is really starting to come together. I just want to give you a big 👍👍 for the wonderful design you gave us. The layout is fantastic and the way the views are framed is spectacular. It truly is all we imagined and more."

Testimonial

I just want to say to those of you who worked on our home - what a great place it has turned into. Just the feelings of space and style it gives. After a month here we have not found anything that we do not like, or anything that we think should have been different. The spaciousness is wonderful, the suitability to the site is fantastic. 

Simply, it is a great piece of design work which has brought only positive comment from all of our once-sceptical neighbours.

“Congratulations on a very good set of working drawings – the best I’ve seen for a long time.  Clear, well presented and concise.”

"I just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with all aspects of my renovations!

I really like your simple and functional design. I think the best has been made of my 1950's house, and we are all enjoying the open plan living space created.

...

Thank you to all of you for your fantastic efforts."

“We are very pleased that Creative Space managed the process of adding a family room to our home. The addition room is working well and the functionality this brings to our property has certainly been recognised by others as a valued addition and well designed. We are very happy that we engaged Creative Space to help us through the design and build of our additional family room and we feel this expansion of our home has added more value than cost. Thank you.”

Darren and Angela Hill

“Creative Space was responsible for designing and project managing the very significant modifications and extensions to our beach house at Little Bay, a remote part of the northern Coromandel Peninsula.  The outcome is excellent: a house with which we are pleased and content to live in, a house that has clever and appropriate design that we enjoy every time we live in it – it has grown on us and we appreciate the careful detail and the attention to critical issues, such as deck space, views, livability, functionality and practical features. 

Dr A.B. Cull, Retired CEO

“We are so, so thrilled with our alterations. We were sure that we could do something with the house when we bought it but what we have ended up with is a home that surpasses anything we had imagined. Everybody who visits us is blown away by the outcome of our alterations. We would both like to thank Creative Space for coming up with a design that was truly "beyond our expectations".

"I would like to extend a personal thank you on the amazing work you have done for us in getting Papamoa through in a tight timeframe.

Thank you for your diligence and patience. And I look forward to partnering in the new year to see them come to reality."

"Some time ago I was introduced to the team at Creative space through a mutual colleague. 

When under some work pressure, I decided to give them a try to see if they could help me out. The team did what I needed and were receptive to my constant phone calls and minor adjustments. They prepared a resource consent which was granted in a few days, and now I have a building consent in process through them too.

I am happy, their work is to a high standard. I look forward to working with them again soon. Many thanks."

We are extremely happy with our new house. All that we deliberated on was worth it and Creative Space supported and guided us through it all.

 

Regan was a pleasure to guide us through this project, ensuring that we were thinking hard about every space in the house, and how we needed it to function. He was professional while also personable and was always available to support us and go over any issues in the project, from initial decision of what we were going to do,  to liaising with the builder in the finer details.
