A British and Kiwi passion project.

Born from friendship and a shared belief that housing should be beautiful, sustainable and yours.

Built on friendship, craft, and a love of this land.

Sanctuary Tiny Homes began as a friendship between a British craftsperson and a New Zealander, shaped by a shared belief that good homes should feel beautiful, practical, and deeply personal.

From Wanaka, they set out to build affordable tiny homes with the care of furniture-making and the durability required for real New Zealand living — homes that tread lightly, travel well, and still feel like a sanctuary.

Every project is a conversation. Materials, finishes, layouts, and details are chosen around the people who will live there — because a tiny home should never feel generic.

Craftsmanship

Built with the discipline of careful joinery, durable detailing, and hands that care about the finish you touch every day.

Sustainability

From efficient footprints to off-grid readiness, we design homes that respect the landscape they sit within.

Personalisation

Every Sanctuary home starts from a design, then becomes yours through layout, materials, storage, and the details that make daily life easier.

Based in Wanaka. Delivering everywhere.

Our homes are built in Wanaka and delivered nationwide across New Zealand. Whether you’re settling beside a lake, on rural land, near the coast, or closer to town, we help plan the journey from our workshop to your site.
