Architectural new build in Riverhead, Auckland

Highend Homes built this architecturally designed home on the Riverhead waterfront


Designed for connection, comfort and entertaining
At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed KMD kitchen, complete with a generous island and fully equipped scullery. The open plan layout flows seamlessly through the dining and living areas, creating a highly functional space for everyday living.




A separate formal lounge offers a more private retreat, enhanced by a custom look-through glass gas fireplace that maintains a visual connection to the main living zone while adding a sense of intimacy. Upstairs, a third lounge provides additional flexibility, offering a quiet space to relax, work or unwind.


Expansive wrap-around decking extends the living spaces outdoors, with both covered and open-air zones designed for year-round entertaining. A built-in sound system and pizza oven complete the space, making it ideal for hosting in any season.






Thoughtful layout with premium finishes
Two bedrooms with a shared bathroom are located on the ground floor, while upstairs includes a third bedroom and a luxurious master suite. Each upstairs bedroom has its own ensuite, with high-quality finishes and indulgent bathtubs that reinforce the home’s sense of comfort and understated luxury. The master suite opens onto a private balcony, where elevated water views create a peaceful retreat.


Throughout the home, every detail has been executed to a high standard. Engineered oak flooring, statement lighting and ducted central heating contribute to a cohesive, high-end finish, while practical elements such as a triple car garage and separate laundry ensure the home performs as well as it looks.




Expert project management and delivery
Project management throughout the construction phase was led by Ben, whose strong organisational and communication skills were key to delivering this complex build. Working closely with the architect, consultants, subcontractors and suppliers, he ensured every stage ran smoothly and aligned with the overall vision.
With multiple stakeholders involved, maintaining clear communication and tight control over timelines was essential. Ben’s ability to anticipate challenges and uphold quality standards at every stage played a critical role in achieving a result that reflects the calibre of the design and the prestige of its waterfront setting.
