The Brae
Mount Pleasant, Christchurch
Positioned on the front edge of Mount Pleasant with reserve land at its boundary and expansive views across McCormacks Bay, this home is shaped by its exceptional coastal setting. A simple gabled form anchors the architecture, with generous glazing capturing uninterrupted outlooks while drawing natural light deep into the interior. The ground floor centres on an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space that connects directly to the lawn and reserve beyond. Above, bedrooms are arranged to take advantage of elevated water views. A restrained palette of light cladding, warm timber and soft interior finishes reinforces the home’s calm coastal character.
