A hallmark of this design is the thoughtful orientation of the three living spaces, allowing natural light to move beautifully through the home across the day. The central kitchen forms the heart of the home, while the separate lounge creates flexibility for relaxing or hosting guests.
The stunning architectural portico with exposed trusses forms a dramatic outdoor living area, offering shelter from sun and rain while providing the perfect setting for relaxed entertaining. Designed to feel beautifully light and open, the living areas can remain open-plan for effortless flow, or be closed off to create a private media room or formal lounge. The plan also includes a dedicated home office, generous storage throughout, quality fixtures and fittings, and a luxurious master suite complete with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe.
→ One of our most popular rural and lifestyle home designs
At just under 260m2, this spacoius four bedroom home design is one of our most sought-after family lifestyle homes. The Homestead Luxe is designed for New Zealand rural living and lifestyle blocks. We have built this stunner in many beautiful spots, including on a hill in Hiwinui just out of Ashhurst; in the beautiful foothills of the Tararua’s just out of Shannon in Horowhenua; and in rural Rangitikei on the outskirts of Marton in the Whanganui region. It never fails to impress.

Because every Homebuild home is customisable, the Homestead Luxe can be adapted to suit your section, views, sun orientation and lifestyle. If you love this design, but your budget is tighter, Homebuild has The Homestead, a 225m2 version of this design, offering a similar architectural character while retaining the feeling of spaciousness in a more efficient footprint.

We quantity survey all our builds with a high degree of accuracy, and accurate knowledge of costs, which combined with our lower margin is part of how we keep costs down. Prices are accurate at the time of publishing, but costs change constanlty on the hundreds of materials and labour that make up the build price. Your section and location will impact the final price too; including for exampe, sloping ground, soil conditions and engineering requirements, minimum floor levels, and the distance getting services to your house. Some features shown or mentioned may be upgrades to the stated price. For further information about what is, and is not, included in the House Only price, contact us.
