12 months of Urban Homes in the Coromandel – See out latest builds!

Hard to believe that it’s been 12 months in the Coromandel, with our franchise owners, Tanya and Dan, bringing Urban Homes’ award-winning craftsmanship to a number of builds. What a year it has been!

From custom beach homes in Whitianga, Wharekaho, Hahei, and Cooks Beach, to family retreats designed for relaxed living, the team has delivered exceptional builds tailored to each location and homeowner.

Building Dreams Across the Coromandel

From Hahei to Whitianga, Tanya and Dan have been busy turning visions into reality. Each project has been thoughtfully designed to complement its location, embrace the coastal lifestyle, and provide a home or holiday home (yes, a good old kiwi bach)  that families will enjoy for years to come.

Here’s a closer look at five standout homes completed over the past year:
