This warm and welcoming Kaiapoi home was designed for a young family, balancing comfort, functionality, and connection to the outdoors.

A simple gable form with clean white plaster and dark joinery gives the home timeless street appeal. Inside, the plan is built around open living — the kitchen, dining, and lounge flow together, creating an easy space for family life and entertaining. The bright red splashback adds personality to the crisp modern kitchen, while large sliders open to private outdoor living framed by lush planting.

Generous glazing floods each space with natural light and strengthens the connection between indoors and out. The living area extends seamlessly to the garden and deck, offering plenty of room for children to play and for gatherings that spill outdoors. The main bedroom also opens directly to the lawn, bringing a sense of calm retreat.

Soft finishes, contemporary fittings, and a neutral palette make this home feel both elegant and relaxed. It’s a design that works perfectly for everyday life — modern, low-maintenance, and made to grow with the family.
