The four-bedroom Hamilton East home has undergone a massive renovation and rebuild process, adding extensive modern living area “hidden” at the rear. Debbie Moore/Open2View From the front, 12 Jellicoe Drive, Hamilton East, looks much like the other state houses in the neighbourhood. Current owner Lindsay Rea​ says an architectural designer friend gave him the book Beyond the State: New Zealand State Houses from Modest to Modern, and that “planted the seed” for the home’s transformation.
