Harbour Edge Living - North Shore

Set above the harbour on Auckland’s North Shore, Edge of Paradise is a contemporary pavilion-style family home designed around its coastal outlook and the way its owners wanted to live. What began as the family’s first home-building journey became an opportunity to make the most of a challenging elevated site, with careful planning connecting the home to its harbour views, surrounding landscape and generous outdoor areas. Clean architectural lines, a low-pitched roof and extensive glazing create a strong relationship between the interior and the setting beyond.

The home’s open-plan kitchen, dining and living spaces form the heart of family life, with natural light, harbour views and relaxed indoor–outdoor flow shaping the everyday experience. A dedicated office, playroom and three bedrooms support the needs of a growing family, while pale timber, white walls and considered concrete accents create a calm, warm and highly liveable interior. With its pavilion-style layout, natural materials and strong connection to the landscape, Edge of Paradise is a distinctive example of contemporary North Shore living by David Reid Homes.
