A Compatible Community
Live among downsizers who love the peace and quiet of the semi-rural setting with city convenience. Covenants mean everyone is 45+ and like-minded — active and friendly, yet independent.
All Sold Out
Twenty-four single-storey, standalone homes on fee simple titles, designed for downsizers aged 45+. Every one has found its owner.
The next chapter is coming — the same thinking, a new part of the city.
Single-level, sun-filled and low-maintenance — on its own fee simple title. Move in, drop the bags, open the doors.
Our difference
Full ownership. Full capital gains. Neighbours at the same active stage of life.
Live among downsizers who love the peace and quiet of the semi-rural setting with city convenience. Covenants mean everyone is 45+ and like-minded — active and friendly, yet independent.
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.
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
Downsize without compromise. Two dozen homes on Waianiwa Place — a quiet street off Mairehau Road, bordered by a stream, adjacent to Prestons Park. All twenty-four are now homes — lived in by downsizers who lead active lives because their low-maintenance homes buy them time. The showhome stays open, and the next North Ridge Living community is already underway.
