Bates is a single-storey family home in Tamahere, set among mature hedges and green lawns. It’s made for entertaining, inside and out.

The home

Schist stone and cream clay brick sit under a dark tiled roof, with black-framed windows throughout. The entrance sits under a gabled portico with a warm timber truss.

Outdoor living

Covered outdoor living has a stone fireplace and an outdoor kitchen with an integrated BBQ, looking out over the in-ground pool. A tiled plunge pool sits in the courtyard too.

Covered outdoor kitchen and dining area with stone block walls and timber trusses, a stone benchtop with an integrated BBQ and firewood store, and a stone table with wrought-iron chairs overlooking the pool

Inside

The kitchen pairs dark timber-grain cabinetry with a long white island and brass tapware. A games room with a billiard table and a home theatre with leather recliners make room for everyone, and a split-face schist wall brings the exterior stone inside.
