The traditional exterior.
The light-filled hall provides space for several interesting pieces.
The owners much loved wooden horses welcome visitors through the front door.
An antique mirror sets the scene for the elegant sitting room with its dark feature wall behind the fireplace and dark tongue-and-groove side panels.
A day bed in a sunny spot in the smaller sitting room provides the perfect place to relax.
The view from the hallway into the small sitting room. 
The stylish Master bedroom uses white as a background to dark wood furniture and floorboards.
An exotic feathered hat becomes a bright hallway decoration.
A young girl's charming bedroom.
A colourful artwork from Antigua cheers a calm kitchen corner.
The modern kitchen includes an original alcove that used to house an old wood-burning stove.
The study/library provides a relaxing space for the family.
A separate cottage provides the owners with office space. N.Z. House & Garden recently featured this gracious 1870's villa in Devonport, a suburb of Auckland. It has a lovely, relaxed feel, the rooms are wide & spacious & the renovations have resulted in a beautiful home, so elegant and full of natural light.
