Smarter small home
Building a new home on a small or subdivided section is a challenge a growing number of kiwi families face. With limited space on offer, how do you combine comfortable living spaces with roomy bedrooms and modern design features, while still setting aside space for a back yard vege patch and barbeque?
At Milestone Homes, we've found the answer - the Smarter Small Home by James Hardie.
Smarter Small Homes use clever design to incorporate all the creature comforts you'd expect in a modern home, with a footprint less than half the size of the average home today.
So that's the ‘small', but what about the ‘smart'?
Smarter Small Homes are also faster and easier to construct, making them the eco-friendly and affordable way to own a new home. The design is deliberately formulated to use full and half measures of building materials. No off cuts and no extras means less waste and less mess.
Smarter Small Homes are proving to be a huge success in Australia, and Milestone Homes has joined forces with James Hardie and design house Creative Arch to bring the concept to New Zealand. This year, we'll be building New Zealand's first Smarter Small Home.
Take a look at the range so far.
