A Gisborne property designed by Brad Hooper and built by local builder Layton Homes draws inspiration from New Zealand’s alpine regions.
“The style of the home is a modern barn house. We were really inspired by this style when we travelled to New Zealand alpine areas,” the vendors say.
“This is shown by the steep pitched gables, clean line vertical cladding, high contrast palettes, large scale windows, and seamless transitions.”
Completed in 2020, the home at 2 Misty View Court features polished concrete floors, timber beams, and skylights that further contribute to this design style while adding a contemporary flair.

A Gisborne property has hit the market.
The estate draws inspiration from New Zealand’s alpine regions.
The style of the home is a modern barn house.
Set on 1.33ha, the property embraces a resort-style outdoor area, which was important to the vendors when designing the home.
“We wanted to incorporate a luxury resort feel, and this is shown in the detailed pool area and tennis court,” the vendor says.
“The pool itself is a 12.5m heated magnesium pool covered with a polycarp enclosure which is on tracks so it can be stacked away if not needed.
“The enclosure allows swimming year-round.
“The pool is accompanied by an in-ground hot tub. Next to the pool is a pool house which includes a traditional sauna, shower, and toilet. Also, within the pool area is a sunken fire pit next to a wood-fired pizza oven.”
The outdoor amenities also include a basketball court, a kids motocross track, an extra-large organic greenhouse, and a fully netted, established fruit orchard.
“There is also an additional glasshouse used as a tearoom/Korean barbecue area, shed with gym room and mezzanine, additional tool shed and two farm animal paddocks. It also has two large water tanks and a solar system with batteries.”
Set on 1.33ha, the property embraces a resort-style outdoor area.
The property would suit a family who want to embrace the country lifestyle.
The five-bedroom home is listed with a price guide between $4.3m-$4.6m.
With so many features, the vendors say the property would suit a family who want to embrace the country lifestyle “but not sacrifice any comforts.”
“It is highly suited for families who love to entertain, want a semi-self-sustainable lifestyle, and enjoy the outdoors and sports,” they say.
The Gisborne location further adds to that.
“The property is tucked away in a small, secluded acreage subdivision, and it has a nice community feel with the neighbouring properties. Prior to this, the area was a pine plantation,” says the vendor.
“We really love the community feel that we have here in Gisborne: a friendly ‘hello’ when you pass someone in the street, friendships made through kids’ sports activities, strolling through the market on a Sunday morning and the many active local community groups. It really has everything you need.”
The five-bedroom home at 2 Misty View Court, Gisborne, is listed by Raine & Horne Gisborne agent Ken Grech with a price guide between $4.3m-$4.6m.
