Windy it may be, but Wellington is a lively place bursting with character. And no matter how tricky those hills are (or the weather!), Landmark Homes Wellington can build you a home that stands out from all the rest.

The Wellington team take huge pride in managing the challenging terrain of their territory. After all, their owner grew up amongst it.

A born-and-bred Wellingtonian, Kim Baldwin took on the Landmark Homes franchise in 2016 just after his dad signed up to build a home with the franchise. It was Kim who ended up completing the design and building his dad’s new home.

With more than 30 years of architectural design and 22 years of project management under his belt – including running his own architectural business – Kim is something of an authority in home design. Unsurprisingly, he’s also their in-house designer.

Wellington’s unyielding terrain makes Design and Build a popular option. Kim says that while other areas of New Zealand have the luxury of flat sites, building in Wellington means grappling with small sections and the sides of hills. Despite that, Kim and his team have the skills to make a dream home a reality.

“When clients come to us with a brief, often the site will have a say in how the house will look,” he says. “We take that design and figure out how to change the contours to fit the site.”

Council regulations and other red tape also will affect the finished product, but the Landmark team take care of that, too.

One of the great things about their Wellington office is that it’s one-stop shop for a bespoke build. The team covers all aspects of interior design, from the kitchen to the colour scheme.

“We cover all the basics within the office rather than sending people down the road. We’ve got a really good team of construction managers here. Everyone’s very competent and qualified in their respective roles.”

Wellington itself has plenty to offer, he says – and the property values aren’t too bad, either.

“It’s a vibrant city. There’s lots happening all the time. It’s a beautiful place, especially when the weather’s good.”
