Elmbridge Mews
A carefully curated community of 24 single-storey, standalone homes with fee simple titles — designed specifically for downsizers aged 45+.
Built for the way you live today, and designed to grow with you into the future.
Single-level, sun-filled and low-maintenance — on its own fee simple title. Move in, drop the bags, open the doors.
Our difference
A 45+ established community
Full ownership. Full capital gains. Neighbours at the same active stage of life.
Fine Design, Quality Build
Each house is discrete in layout but similar in concept — capturing the sunlight through proportionally larger windows for a warm inside-outside flow. Award-winning construction with a ten-year guarantee means you've made a solid investment.
The Living Is Easy
When downsizing, there's a fine balance between what you have and what you need — decluttering results in a less busy, higher-quality lifestyle. Financially, the fee simple title means you keep the capital gain, and you may also unlock equity so you can lock and leave when the travel bug bites.
The development
It's A New Way Of Living
Downsize without compromise. Two dozen homes on Waianiwa Place — a quiet street off Mairehau Road, bordered by a stream, adjacent to Prestons Park. Sixteen sites are sold, settled and occupied by downsizers who lead active lives because their low-maintenance homes buy them time. With only eight of these highly specced, beautifully built houses left, this is your opportunity to turn one into a home.
