Bold, original and distinctly John Scott
In what was renowned New Zealand architect John Scott's final commission, 'Hatuma' was arguably his ultimate triumph after an illustrious, award-winning career that boldly redefined the face of New Zealand architecture. Completed in early 1990's, Scott's vision for the spectacular, hillside site can simply be described as 'living inside a work of art'. The expansive property is technically two separate, self-contained dwellings - a two bedroom plus office 'Main House' and a three bedroom 'Annex', linked together by a bowed canopy across the multi-tiered courtyard. Hatuma is true to any John Scott masterpiece, with the idea a property is designed from the inside out, as a space for living in, while incorporating functionality, simple details and allowing the materials to speak for themselves. In summer it is difficult to identify the boundaries between inside and out, where the vast and plentiful living spaces including a media room cohesively flow together as one. Yet in winter one can hunker down and enjoy the cosiness these defined spaces offer. So too the jaw dropping views across the rolling green pastoral lands of the Hatuma valley are not captured by one audacious picture window but are designed to be enjoyed by taking in 'snapshots' through the multitude of doors and windows throughout the house. Outside is just as impressive, where one now benefits from 30 odd years of ground establishment with the magnificent array of English and specimen trees creating a true parklike setting, complete with petanque court, tennis court platform and above ground swimming pool. The 4.9780 hectares (12 acres) of land incorporates five paddocks with reliable water via three separate systems. The locality can only be described as first class, within 5 minutes of the boutique township of Waipukurau and an hour of Napier airport, offering fantastic Airbnb style prospects.
