When a real estate agent and an experienced builder create their own home, they almost know too much. Or they come pretty close to perfection. 

Tania O’Connor and Murray Moore’s home, nestled in Wellington’s Brooklyn village, has attracted a number of envious glances since they built it 10 years ago. 

The couple were inspired by the Black Barn Riverside Cottages designed by Andy Coltart.  

“We liked the space, the light and the beautiful detail,” says O’Connor.  

 “But, at the end of the day, the section will design your house and what you build,” adds Moore.  

The open plan kitchen/sitting area opens directly out to the backyard through bi-fold French doors.
