Awash with natural light and space, Platinum Homes-South Auckland/Counties new Papakura show home takes pride of place just 40 minutes drive from downtown Auckland at number 3 Pakaraka Drive.
Exemplary of the high quality finish customers can expect from a home crafted by Platinum Homes, the beautiful medium sized family home encompasses a practical 203sqm footprint that flows easily from room to room. A separate, second living space creates the perfect evening retreat or entertainment area.
Cleverly designed and thoroughly modern, the kitchen features great natural lighting from the dual skylights, an extra wide main bench, plus an adjoining walk-in pantry, providing extra bench and storage space.
Murray Taylor, Sales Manager for Platinum Homes says that the home’s design is centred around the large open plan kitchen / living zone with a 2.55 metre stud throughout the house providing a strong sense of spaciousness.
“Because the ceiling height is taller, the windows and doors are also taller, allowing even more light into the home.”
The large master suite features a walk-through wardrobe plus a beautifully appointed fully tiled ensuite that includes a tiled shower with frameless glassware, WC and basin.
“The main bathroom utilises a functional all-inone layout that includes shower, basin, stand alone bath and a toilet that is hidden behind a frosted glass panel,” says Murray.
The large double garage features a walk-through laundry with outdoor access and a cream concrete brick with matching mortar has been used as the homes exterior cladding.
Reflecting on what make a Platinum Homes special, Murray says in part it’s the traditional building methods that are used – each home is always built above the code requirements.
“We also have great relationships with a large number of New Zealand suppliers. Most of the fitouts of our homes are with New Zealand manufacturers or using New Zealand supplied materials. The quality shows when you see the whole package together— clients gets a home and products designed to stand the test of time.”
With 15 years experience in the building industry, Platinum Homes is a well-established building company, keen to share that experience and knowledge with its customers.
Murray says the team at Platinum Homes is very conscious about talking to clients about what the real cost of the build will be with, right from the start of the process.
“The building procedure is explained in clear simple terms, giving the customer sound advice, guidance and support throughout the entire process. We talk to the customer about what they want in their house and why they want it so that we can provide a price as close as possible to the final build cost.”
Building about 50 homes each year, a strong relationship with long-standing and trusted contractors and sub contractors is another key advantage for Platinum Homes and its clients.
“We’ve used the same contractors and subcontractors to build our homes for a very long time. That’s really important and it shows the integrity of the business we run. It means that we are using contractors that we can rely on.”
