Award-Winning Architecture in Grey Lynn Fully Furnished 6–9 Month Lease Winner of multiple national and international design awards, Lightly Weighted is a rare opportunity to live in a globally recognised piece of architecture. This two-bedroom, one-bathroom home has been designed as a private inner-urban retreat. Elevated within Grey Lynn, its rippled concrete façade creates a protective shell, offering privacy while maintaining connection to light and greenery. At 85sqm across two levels, the home proves that compact living can still feel generous. Bedrooms are tucked into the lower level within native planting, creating a restful separation from the street. Above, living spaces are framed by fluted concrete walls and anchored by a sculptural stone kitchen designed as a piece of furniture. A 4.2-metre roof slot draws natural light deep into the interior, casting shifting shadows across exposed concrete, blackened floors and warm Totara timber linings. The result is a home that feels calm, considered and beautifully composed. Set on a 280sqm site, the structure is positioned to create a sheltered central courtyard, folding the outdoors inward and enhancing the sense of retreat. Widely published and internationally recognised, Lightly Weighted has featured in ArchDaily, Domus, Habitus, The Local Project, Viva and more.

Available fully furnished as a limited-term residency. Architectural homes of this calibre are exceptionally rare in Grey Lynn and the surrounding suburbs.
