| 73 T T Anne Boswell Small-town lifestyle close to the city Helensville is fast becoming a sought-after location for people wanting to live in a smaller community, while having the conveniences of the city nearby. Parkview Development DEVELOPMENT An opportunity has become available to secure a piece of paradise with the re-release of 12 lots in the Parkview Helensville development. Situated around 40 minutes’ drive from Auckland CBD – while retaining its charming, small-community feel – stages 4 and 5 of the 155-lot development are now being wrapped up. Developer Oliver Scott says the re-released lots range in size from 450sqm to 600sqm, and are priced from $430,000 + GST to $540,000 + GST. “We have seen a diverse demographic of purchasers so far – from young families to some first-home buyers and multiple-home owners, plus retirees,” he says. “A lot of us want to give our kids the kind of freedom we had when we were growing up – a good neighbourhood, a local village and a school they can walk or ride their bikes to. Parkview Helensville is able to provide this small-town lifestyle, without giving up the big city, which is only half an hour away.” All sections are north and west facing, basking in all-day sun, with views over the well-appointed and recently upgraded Rautawhiri Park – complete with skate park, tennis and netball courts, rugby and soccer fields, cricket grounds and dog exercise area – and the McKenzie Hills. The development is within walking distance of Helensville School and Kaipara College, and the nearby Helensville township with restaurants, cafes and shopping centre. While Parkview Developments works alongside G.J Gardner Homes, Generation Homes, Golden Homes, Stonewood Homes and Westmoreland Homes to provide houseand-land packages, purchasers are free to use the building company of their choice, with no restrictions or covenants on the sections. “Customers seem to be building four-bedroom, two-bathroom, double-garage houses on the generous sites,” Oliver says. Helensville is fast becoming a sought-after location for people wanting to live in a smaller community, while having the conveniences of the city nearby. A massive boost to roading infrastructure, including a new motorway approved by the Government as a ‘highway of national significance’, has brought Helensville closer to the CBD than ever before, with a current off-peak drive time of 39 minutes – soon to be reduced. It is also only 25 minutes from Westgate and Northwest suburban centres, one of New Zealand’s fastest-growing areas. “Despite being so close to the city, Helensville has been able to retain a country feel, with plenty of open spaces,” Oliver says. “It is close to beaches, and is an area that people visit for fishing, surfing, golf and equestrian pursuits. It is an area booming with outdoor activities.” “Despite being so close to the city, Helensville has been able to retain a country feel, with plenty of open spaces.” A Real FIXED PRICE BUILD CONTRACT AND A COMPLETION DATE For more information contact: Suanne Jackson 027 531 1571 Mackenzie Suckling 021 545 700 Norman Markgraaff 021 339 396 Nadine Markgraaff 021 0817 9075 DESIGN & BUILD WITH GENERATION HOMES AUCKLAND NORTH ,ZFWâSœJæI
