Perched overlooking the Bay of Islands, this remarkable home masters the art of a commanding, durable exterior but with warmth and relaxation within.

With a love of sailing, our clients certainly picked the right site to build their dream home. The elevated views out to the islands are spectacular for watching the boats and weather come and go, whether it be a pristine blue day or a stormy night. 

The home is designed so that on the seaward side it appears as only single level, but tucked into the hillside behind is the basement and garaging, only visual on arrival. 

The use of concrete blocks on the exterior gives the home protection from the coastal elements, but within it’s homely and warm. 

Thoughtful and practical indoor-outdoor flow lets family enjoy all of the house, at any time of the year.

The house is packed with surprises and signature features; for example a glass floor, a secret bunker, and architectural showpiece stairs.

If this inspires you to start on your dream home, don’t hesitate, take advantage of our 30 years of designing homes on coastal properties, and contact the Arcline Team today to begin.
