Louise and Eugene Barry bought their quaint Onehunga, Auckland home in November 2009 when the house was only 112m² for four bedrooms. But the central location, being close to Cornwall Park and motorways, and the warm and friendly community made up for the size.
With a growing family they simply needed more space, so it was either move or create a larger home on the same site. They opted for the rebuild to increase the size to 270m². Every single interior wall from the existing structure was removed to accommodate the new floor plan. The work took around eight months.
The roof is Colorsteel in Grey Friars which works perfectly with the Marley Stormcloud spouting and RP80 downpipes also in Grey Friars from the Stratus Design Series. The Stormcloud quarter-round profile has clean, strong lines which fit in with the modern yet classic styling. Marley Stratus Design Series has a 15-year guarantee and excellent UV resistance.
Louise, Eugene and their two little ones are loving their roomy rebuild, and the peace of mind they have from future proofing with quality products such as the Marley Stratus Design Series.
