All about entertaining

By Leigh Bramwell nzme

It was a burning desire for a kitchen with a scullery that turned a renovation plan into a new build for Sarah and Grant Smith. Sarah had always wanted a scullery with a dishwasher and when she and Grant saw a good section for sale in Omaha, north of Auckland, it was clear they could get more of the things they wanted in a new build.

It was a really easy piece of property on 1100 square metres, which agent Rod Bickerton says is pretty big for Omaha, so they knew they could build something with plenty of outdoor living space and room for a pool later on.

Scheduled for auction on August 17, the house is down a right-of-way at the favoured south end of a cul-de-sac.

It’s four rows back from Omaha beach and a short walk to tennis courts and the reserve.

Sarah and Grant came up with their own design that would give them the coveted large kitchen with scullery, easy entertaining spaces inside and out, and all-day sun.

Sarah project-managed the build, which she says was challenging but certainly not the drama some people experience, and it turned out exactly as planned.

“This house is really all about entertaining,” she says.

The designer kitchen has Bosch appliances, an engineered stone bench top, island bench with seating space, and Sarah’s requisite scullery which has its own sink, lots of storage, and one of the two dishwashers she had on her wish list.

“It’s great,” she says. “When you’re having a dinner party you can just chuck all the stuff in there and deal with it later.”

The kitchen is open to the neighbouring sitting, dining and lounge areas and the whole area is warmed in winter with a choice of the vented gas fire or the heat pump.

The space is designed for indooroutdoor living with several sets of wide sliding doors opening to two outdoor living areas.

The u-shaped design of the house wraps around the central entertainers’ deck which has an automated louvred roof, custom-fitted outdoor shade blinds and powerful outdoor heating.

“It’s actually quite simple but it appeals to everyone because it’s so easy to live in,” Sarah says. “I had my fiftieth here a while ago and we had people inside and outside and it worked really well.

And that’s how it is at any time of the year.”

There are three bedrooms, a bathroom, powder room and separate laundry on the ground floor, and one of the bedrooms is supersized, adding to the flexibility of the design.

It has shutters and opens to a deck, so it has possibilities as an alternative to the upstairs master bedroom if necessary, or as a media room.”

Although Sarah is very happy with her scullery, the mezzanine floor overlooking the downstairs living area is her favourite space.

“We use it a lot in the winter–it’s a good place to sit and watch TV.” If further entertaining or recreational space is needed there’s the carpeted double internal garage with loft space.

There’s plenty of outdoor parking for car, boat and camper, and the toys required to take advantage of a location so close to the beach.

A UK mortgage broker has analysed all 124 projects that have featured on Grand Designs UK since the show began in 1999, and it has come to some surprising conclusions.

The show makes no bones about the emotional and financial stress caused by these works of architectural passion.

In fact, seeing couples tear their hair out and break down in tears after a supply chain nightmare or cost overrun is what many of the show’s viewers tune in for.

Breaking the budget on a renovation is nothing new but the stakes are

AND LANDSCAPE SUPPLIES

considerably higher when the project is your life’s work and the bills are for hundreds of thousands of pounds.

Mojo Mortgages found out just how many Grand Designs projects ran into budget woes and break the bank. The research shows 80 per cent of homes that featured on the show stretched beyond initial estimates.

“Everyone who builds a house on Grand Designs sets out a budget that they intend to keep within [but] overall, 80 per cent of the projects go over budget, with only 8 per cent under budget and 7 per cent on budget,” Mojo Mortgages says.

According to the research, the av-

erage starting budget for projects on the show is £371,214 ( NZ $690,232).

But the final spend is much higher at £495,577 ( NZ $921,472).

That means that the average Grand Designer goes over budget by 34 percent - or £124,356 (NZ$231,226).

The research did not take into account house price inflation, but the percentages were calculated using the information at the time of the build.

Mojo Mortgages found that a seaside house on the Isle of Wight that featured in the 2014 season of the show went over budget the most–£1.35 million more than originally planned.

The property is currently for sale for £2,949,999, having seen its asking price drop from the original price tag of £3.95 million.

On average, a completed Grand Designs house goes on the market at £1.29 million, according to the research.

Grand Designs NZ has had its fair share of cost blow-outs as well. The $450,000 budget for David Fitzmaurice and Joyce Wee’s container house on the edge of Christchurch almost doubled in size when they chose to double the size of the home mid-build. And Brendon Poole and Nikki Cliffe’s budget for a mixed use build in Auckland’s Ponsonby went from around $2 million to more than $5 million.
