Hardwick-Smith House for sale November 2014


I see that the Hardwick-Smith house is on the market as of today. You can find the listing on TradeMe here and the house at 124 Park Rd, Belmont.

The plan of the house as originally designed is a simple T. The upright of the T contains the lounge. On one side of the cross-bar are the bedrooms, and on the other side the carport and garage. At the junction of the T are the dining room, kitchen and bathroom. The T is angled to make the best use of the sun for the patio, which while common today, was still something of a novelty in 1948 when the house was built.
