Cedar Dreams Architectural Rural Home Near Matamata

Cedar Dreams is an architectural rural home near Matamata, combining barn-style forms, cedar cladding and warm, modern interiors crafted by MB Construction. Designed for clients who wanted a refined country retreat just over the Kaimais, the home features double-height living, a concrete fireplace, custom joinery and strong indoor–outdoor flow to the surrounding farmland. Working closely with the architect, interior designer and homeowners, Matt resolved complex details on site so the house feels calm and effortless to live in while still delivering the level of finish expected from a high-end architectural build. Positioned within easy reach of Tauranga, it’s a showcase of the rural new builds we deliver for clients in Tauranga and across the wider Bay of Plenty through our NEW HOME BUILDS AND ARCHITECTURAL CONSTRUCTION SERVICES.
