Villa & character-home renovation
Auckland’s villas were built by hand, by people who cared. We renovate them the same way, true to the original, made to work for modern family life.
We genuinely love these homes, and it shows.
A villa has things a new home can’t buy: kauri floors, sash windows, plaster ceilings, proportions that took craftsmen to make. Renovating one well means honouring all of that while quietly bringing the warmth, weathertightness and function a modern family needs. After more than 40 years, it’s the work we love most.
