The vision was to bring back the original character charm of this heritage building whilst also incorporating three state of the art modern apartments which blended seamlessly into the character of the original structure.
Working entirely within the envelope of the original church, three spacious, two level character town houses have been created, each adorned with original features from the buildings past.
This project received a Gold Award, National Gold Award, and was the National Supreme Winner at the 2019 Master Build House of the Year competition.
This project was inspired by the opportunity to strengthen and restore the beauty of a 135 year old former church in the historic suburb of Petone
