whangarei tilt 150 transportable home
The Tilt 150 is one of Elevate’s most popular home designs, offering a spacious, light-filled layout with a modern edge. This Whangārei-bound build will soon become the permanent home for a family of five, who wanted a house that blends relaxed family living with refined design. The overall aesthetic is a beautifully cohesive mix of rustic character and contemporary charm.
Let’s take a look through some of the key spaces and standout features of this home:
Main Living
The main living area features a striking high, angled ceiling that gives the space a wonderful sense of light and openness. The entertainment wall has been pared back to a simple low cabinetry unit, with space for a TV above and the clients’ own bookcase alongside. A Pyroclassic fire adds warmth and a comforting ambience through the cooler months.
Lighting has been given special attention throughout the home. Designer pendants feature in the kitchen, dining area and master bedroom, complemented by feature wall lights in the bathrooms and LED strip lighting with dimmable options for a layered lighting effect to suit any occasion.
Kitchen
The kitchen embraces a bold, rustic palette with salvaged planked elm Melteca cabinetry, an earthy green scalloped island bench backing, sage green splashback tiles, and brushed nickel fixtures. The layout closely follows our popular Elevate 150 kitchen plan, designed for easy everyday living and effortless entertaining.
Scullery and Laundry
Concealed behind integrated cabinetry doors off the kitchen are the highly functional scullery and laundry. The scullery includes open shelving, under-bench cupboards, two large ventilated drawers, a sink, and a gooseneck pull-out tap – creating an efficient workspace with ample storage.
The laundry area has been custom designed to suit the family’s needs, with a full-height linen and coat cupboard by the back door, plus a separate laundry room offering excellent additional storage and bench space.
Bathroom and Ensuite
The home’s earthy green tiles and brushed nickel fittings flow through to the bathroom and ensuite, tying the palette together beautifully. Both spaces feature fully tiled showers, wall-hung vanities, oak-interior mirrored cabinets, and elegant Travertine feature lights in natural stone and timber for a soft, organic touch.
Second Living Room and Guest Bedrooms
A second living area, located off the main lounge, features commercial-grade laminate flooring and a cedar-louvred window. The two spacious guest bedrooms easily accommodate king-sized beds and are finished with wool loop pile carpet for comfort and warmth. Each bedroom includes floor-to-ceiling three-bay built-in wardrobes for generous storage.
Master Suite
Tucked away behind the kitchen, the master bedroom suite includes a luxurious ensuite and a walk-in wardrobe. It’s a calm and restful retreat, offering privacy and a sense of quiet separation from the rest of the home.
This Tilt 150 is a wonderful example of how thoughtful design and personal touches can transform a proven plan into a truly individual home.
