For the first time, architect Guy Tarrant's own award-winning Courtyard House in Pt Chevalier is on the market. Built in 2017 on a unique rhomboid section, the home won the prestigious NZIA Sir Ian Athfield Award.
The single-level design centres around a tranquil pool, creating a private, resort-like feel. With three bedrooms, it’s ideal for downsizers or families. This is a rare opportunity to own a landmark Auckland home, listed with Martin Dobson of Kellands.
Light is very important in this home.
Inside, the home is relaxing, and welcoming.
All the rooms in the house look onto the central courtyard and the swimming pool.
The home wraps around the site, and pushes into a tricky corner, maximizing space left for the courtyard.
A curved wall in the corner of the dining room, takes in the shape of the site.
The gardens are mostly outside, a gift to passers-by that softens the brick.
Friends tell Millar the home has a resort feel.
