2023 Waikato House of The Year Winner
2023 Waikato House of The Year Winner
Versatile Hamilton took home three awards at the 2023 Waikato Registered Master Builders House of the Year Awards.
Not only did they win Gold and the overall award for Volume/Group Housing New Home up to $500,000, but they also received a Regional Lifestyle Award for Sustainable & Environmental Excellence.
The winning 126sqm home is a simple, elongated rectangular shape, but everything else about it is out of the ordinary, including its off-the-grid capabilities. Sleek metal cladding trimmed with warm cedar grounds the house on its site and sets the scene for what’s in store, which is light, warm and lovely.
The three-bedroom, two-bathroom home has been built on a platform to take advantage of wide, green views, but also to accommodate the solar power system. Natural light pours in thanks to large windows, a heat transfer kit has been installed to the log burner and low-E glass helps retain heat in chilly central North Island winters.
On sunny days, the owners can fling open sliders in the communal space and step onto a deck that runs the length of the dwelling. Given its remote location the home had to be practical, but it also displays real flair.

You can't really get any more than perfect can you??
"Versatile kept in touch brilliantly - from the initial contact with Ian through to Wayne who was very hands on throughout the process. The office staff were efficient as well and were quick to help when necessary. I would definitely use Versatile Hamilton without hesitation and I would be glad to refer others onto this business. I didn't bother in the beginning to get another quote as I felt confident after the initial contact. The staff at Versatile Avalon Drive Hamilton worked with me to change the standard design.
