Crafted from enduring rammed earth, this remarkable home combines sustainability, style and serenity in one elegant package. Set on private, tree-lined grounds with an established orchard and space to grow your own garden, it offers a lifestyle that is both grounded and inspiring.

Every wall tells a story—hand-formed and rich in natural texture, rammed earth construction ensures exceptional thermal comfort year-round: warm in winter, cool in summer, and naturally quieter. It’s a home designed with intention, built to last, and gentle on the environment.

Inside, timber accents and wooden flooring pair beautifully with the organic palette, creating warmth and timeless appeal. The home features three generously sized bedrooms—two with ensuites—all with access to a wide veranda, offering effortless indoor-outdoor flow. The main bathroom includes a claw-foot bath, adding vintage charm to everyday living.

The kitchen is ideal for entertainers, flowing seamlessly into the spacious living and dining area where French doors open to lush, established grounds. An open fireplace adds a cosy heart to the home, while a hidden cellar or storage room adds character and functionality.

Rammed earth construction offers peace of mind—fire and pest resistant, low maintenance, and made from locally sourced materials. Its beauty deepens with age, embodying a thoughtful lifestyle without compromising on design. Tucked between Waikanae and Paraparaumu, this property offers rural tranquility with urban convenience. A double garage with workshop completes the picture.

If you’re looking for a home that blends beauty, balance, and sustainability—this is your invitation to slow down and live with intention.
