72 | Peter Ray Homes Christchurch: Rolleston Development T T Kelly Deeks Awards keep flowing for builder “Our two Rolleston show homes have recently opened and they are a great example of the specifications, quality, and attention to detail you will come to expect from a Peter Ray Home,” says general manager John Baugh. DEVELOPMENT Peter Ray Homes has been designing and building award-winning new homes for happy customers in Canterbury since 1986 and more than 35 years later, the awards keep coming. This year, Peter Ray Homes has brought home Gold, Regional Category, and People’s Choice awards for a home brimming with style in West Melton. Peter Ray Homes is a well-known and highly respected new home builder which has proudly helped thousands of Kiwi families to achieve their dream of building their own home. “We have a hugely experienced team and provide a friendly, consultative atmosphere where we listen to our clients’ plans and requirements so we can design and build a home that perfectly fits their needs,” says Peter Ray Homes general manager John Baugh. “With our knowledge and experience, our clients get stylish design, high quality workmanship, and personalised service.” This year’s award winning home demonstrates all of these in spades. The experience of this 260sqm home starts with its street appeal, and the sophisticated combination of a double gable roof design, white plaster, and blue-black brick cladding. Through the entryway lays a contemporary yet homely open plan kitchen, living, and dining space. Different ceiling alcoves in this space help to delineate between the different zones. The well appointed kitchen is the feature of this space, with expansive bench tops and natural light from large skylights and windows. The living area is heated by a freestanding wood burner, with brick detailing behind and a stack of firewood paying reference to the exterior of the home. Off the main living area is a separate pool room that exudes class and sophistication, with forest green walls, a black ceiling, and vintage lighting and furniture. Outside, solar panels on the north-facing roof provide power to the home. The outdoor entertaining space features a louvered pergola, fire pit, bar table, and spa pool, as well as plenty of lawn space. Peter Ray Homes provides a range of options to suit every client’s requirements with a dedicated sales team and five in-house architectural designers. “From a design book full of concept plans to give you some ideas, to full design and build, Peter Ray Homes can find a solution for all styles and budgets,” John says. Peter Ray Homes also has house and land packages in various locations throughout Canterbury, and puts bespoke house and land packages together to suit locations and budgets. Peter Ray Homes has five show homes to be able to visit for design ideas - two at Te Whariki, Lincoln, one at Oakbridge in Redwood, and two brand new show homes at Faringdon, Rolleston. “Our two Rolleston show homes have recently opened and they are a great example of the specifications, quality, and attention to detail you will come to expect from a Peter Ray Home,” John says. Located on Finstock Way, each of these two homes offers something completely different from one another. The ‘Kingsley’ is a thoughtfully designed three-bedroom home that combines style and functionality. The open plan kitchen, living, and dining area serve as the heart of the home, with sliding doors connecting the indoor and outdoor areas. With a separate lounge for a cozy retreat, this home provides a great everyday living for all the family. The stunning ‘Dafoe’ show home provides a showcase of the flexibility Peter Ray Homes can offer in both design and specifications. It is a spacious and contemporary four-bedroom home with an emphasis on the living areas. The expansive open plan kitchen, dining room and living have large sliders at either end opening out onto a morning deck area and an evening outdoor area. The separate lounge room has a fire and feels connected to the living areas through the feature louvres between the spaces. Peter Ray Homes
