A landmark merchant villa in Herne Bay, Auckland, was given long overdue attention by its new owners. Salmond Reed Architects was engaged to work closely with client, builder and interior designer to transform what had been a “half-way house” into an attractive large family residence.
Salmond Reed Architects’s input included coordination of widespread repairs and heritage refurbishment as well assistance with the incorporation of modern interior features.
This house, conceived as a building in a landscape, lies at the centre of a 15 year regeneration project focused on the protection of native plants and birds.
For this Herne Bay Auckland inner-city villa, our client’s brief called for the removal of a 1980’s makeover and reinstatement of heritage features of the house.
A tasteful renovation to an inter-war period house subjected to a number of renovations over the years.
