A young family of four, including two growing boys, found that their existing single-storey, two-bedroom home in Waitati, on New Zealand’s South Island, no longer met their needs. Despite the space limitations, the family was deeply attached to their picturesque rural block and preferred to extend their home rather than relocate. They partnered with Mopanui Studios and Homes, a local builder, who utilized prefabricated home extension from Scandi Group. This collaboration allowed the family to stay within their budget while transforming their modest home into a spacious two-story, five-bedroom residence, perfectly blending functionality with the scenic beauty of their location.
