The Waikato Supreme House of the Year Winners are.....🏘️
21 August
On Friday night we announced the Waikato House of the Year winners for 2023.
This year, there were 30 beautiful homes entered from around the Waikato region. The much anticipated event was celebrated at the Claudelands Event Centre and was a fantastic evening of celebration. We hope everyone who attended had a great night.
Supreme House of the Year - over $1 Million
SJR BUILDERS
For a Home in Cooks Beach
This home also won the New Home over $4 million category, Pink Batts Craftsmanship Award, and a Gold Award.
This home construction transcends complexity, showcasing outstanding craftsmanship throughout. The challenges posed by constrained site access and complex ground conditions were met with a carefully planned and staged building process. Boring deep holes of up to eight metres down to bed rock and filling them with reinforced concrete, tested SJR Builders' expertise. Navigating the difficult access to the underground concrete bedroom wing required exceptional skill.
The curved surfaces have been expertly executed, and the finishes including textured plaster, tiling, timber, plasterboard, and painting add to the stunning result. Exemplifying excellence, this construction is a worthy supreme winner.

Supreme House of the Year - under $1 Million
FV DESIGN AND BUILD
For a Home in Raglan
This home also won the Altus Window Systems New Home $750,000 - $1 million category, Outdoor Living Excellence Award, and a Gold Award.
This home’s stunning design integrates with the sloping site, whilst skillfully crafted recesses and protrusions add character and style to its long rectangular form. The complexity of the roof, with its well-installed internal gutters and downpipes, further highlights the precision and expertise involved.
Inside the dining room, FV Design and Build used cedar on the walls and ceiling, along with full-height wall-to-wall doors, creating a feel that effortlessly extends to the outdoors. A special feature, the hidden floor-to-ceiling door in the dining room leading to the bedroom wing, adds a unique touch. Overall, the workmanship displayed in this house is outstanding, and well-worthy of the Supreme Award for this category.

Supreme Renovation of the Year
G.D PRINGLE BUILDING
For a Home in Cambridge
This home also won the Renovation up to $750,000 category, and a Gold Award.
The judges were wowed by this home renovation. It has been remodelled so well throughout its exterior and interior, it’s near impossible to distinguish the work undertaken. G.D Pringle Building’s team has demonstrated meticulous attention to detail, precision, and craftsmanship.
The implementation of the matching Matai tongue and groove flooring, and the construction of new windows and relocation of existing ones, showcases their skill, resulting in a harmonious transformation. The utmost care and consideration were also taken with the doors, trims, and the reuse of existing fixtures. Without a doubt, this flawless renovation is deserving of the prestigious title of Supreme Renovation of the Year.
