| 77 T T Karen Phelps Demand drives project Harakeke Heights is situated beside the Waikanae Golf Course with proximity to the beach. The first stage comprises 46 sections ranging from approximately 305-400 sqm and seven masterlots, varying from 784 sqm to 1112 sqm Harakeke Heights DEVELOPMENT A new residential development in Waikanae is responding to a growing demand for affordable land in the Waikanae area, says sales and marketing manager for Harakeke Heights Selina Wylie. “We realized there is a huge demand for affordable land in this area,” she says. “When we initially did our site plan, sections were a lot larger, but feedback from purchasers and building companies demanded smaller sections for lifestyle and affordability.” Selina says the name Harakeke Heights holds a deep meaning, reflecting family unity. “Mirroring the symbolism of the fan-shaped Harakeke flax, the development aspires to be a family-oriented community. The ‘rito’ (inner shoot) is embraced protectively by the ‘awhi rito’ (parents), while the outside leaves represent ‘tūpuna’ (grandparents). Inspired by this beautiful symbolism, Harakeke Heights aims to be a place where generations connect and grow together. The development is strategically located to provide a balance between natural beauty and urban convenience. Residents can expect more than just a residential space; they can anticipate a thriving neighbourhood with a strong sense of connection and belonging.” Developed by Kapiti Developments Ltd Harakeke Heights is situated beside the Waikanae Golf Course and within walking distance to restaurants and cafes, Harakeke Heights provides a convenient living experience. With proximity to the beach and the town of Waikanae, the development is close to all necessary amenities, says Selina. The subdivision promises affordable sections suitable for homes for a diverse range of families. Harakeke Heights, divided into seven stages, will unfold over three years, with the first stage currently up for sale. This stage comprises 46 sections ranging from approximately 305-400 sqm and seven masterlots, varying from 784 sqm to 1112 sqm. Selina says the masterlots, suitable for terraced housing, provide an excellent opportunity for other developers or building companies. Selina says that what sets Harakeke Heights apart is the incorporation of wetlands within the development. Undulating through various stages the result is a beautiful setting and there will eventually be pathways for cycling and walking. The goal is to provide residents with the ideal canvas to build a home that reflects their unique style and preferences. Selina says that Harakeke Heights provides residents the freedom to choose their builders, fostering diversity and individuality in the builds. Several building companies, including Abode Homes, Elevation Homes, and Jennian Homes, have already started advertising house and land packages, showcasing the range of possibilities for homeowners. She says the aim is to issue titles at the end of the last quarter of 2024. Infrastructure services, including boundary fencing and delivery of all services to the boundary, are included in the section cost. Devcorp is handling most of the civil contracting for the Harakeke Heights project. Selina says Harakeke Heights is not just about selling land; it’s about building a community. “Harakeke Heights is not just another development; it’s a testament to the vision of creating a community that stands the test of time. As families start to build their homes and lives in Harakeke Heights, the development is poised to become an integral part of the vibrant Waikanae landscape.” She says since the sections were released response has been extremely positive: “We take immense pride in bringing Harakeke Heights to the open market, and the response so far has been nothing short of amazing. Our fixed-price sections are highly sought after, and we anticipate they won’t be available for long. If interested potential purchasers should secure their spot now and be part of a thriving community that’s designed to nurture connections, foster growth, and provide a haven for families of all sizes.” Proudly working with Harakeke Heights 10/245 St Asaph Street, Ōtautahi office@dcmurban.com 03 421 2196 Our projects range from urban design and public spaces to masterplanning and the design and strategic planning of new subdivisions and neighbourhood playgrounds.
