Think outside the square
For more than 70 years, Gonville's Round House has been a landmark in a neighbourhood of four-square cottages, villas and bungalows. Now this wonderful property with its unique combinations of futuristic shapes and materials, can be yours. This three bedroom home, with multiple living spaces, is constructed from six overlapping and interlocking circles of poured concrete and steel. The perimeter walls resting directly on the ground merge seamlessly into the concrete roof. Inside, the rooms are a mixture of perfect circles and gently tapering wedges with plaster walls and rimu floors, featuring a streamlined fireplace and hand-tooled wooden paneling. Each room flows seamlessly into the next and with wide arcs of windows on all sides - giving it a wonderful feeling of light and space uncommon for its era, letting it bask in the Gonville sun. The exterior has echoes of art deco styling, but rather than a stucco skin over a conventional timber frame, this is solid concrete - built like a tank. The large garden with its abundance of fruit trees offers a sanctuary for children to play or adults to potter. Come and experience 1950s modernist chic at its finest! You will fall in love - call us now for your appointment to view or come to one of our open homes.
