48 | Pepe Ridge Ltd DEVELOPMENT A premium lifestyle in Tairua Pepe Ridge is a community that complements its natural surroundings and offers a premium lifestyle. T T Anne Boswell Positioned in the peaceful coastal town of Tairua, the Pepe Ridge development represents a fusion of coastal living, contemporary design and environmental harmony. Spearheaded by Jason Carruthers, John Carruthers and Jeremy Disher, the trio’s vision for Pepe Ridge is not just another suburban development, but a community that complements its natural surroundings and offers a premium lifestyle. Jason, John and Jeremy’s journey began in early 2021, after undertaking an extensive search across Central Otago, Central Waikato and Northland for the perfect block of land. Their search brought them to the stunning town of Tairua, known for its boating life, surf, native bush and fishing. After securing the site, the development process commenced and significant progress has been made with earthworks, civil infrastructure and landscape planting well underway. The construction is set for completion in late 2024, with titles expected to be available from 2025. Pepe Ridge is a substantial undertaking. Spanning a large area that wraps around the rear of the Tairua Golf Course, it includes 52 residential lots. The lots, which range in size from 670 to 8,000 square metres, were released in two stages and priced between $550,000 and $700,000. Two-thirds of the land is zoned rural and remains covered in bush, providing an untouched natural backdrop. The development capitalises on the natural topography, with many properties enjoying breath-taking views—north-facing lots overlook the Pacific Ocean, while the south-facing lots look out over the Tairua estuary, with Slipper Island in the distance. Central to the vision of the Pepe Ridge development is maintaining the integrity of Tairua’s natural environment. To this end, 30,000 native trees have been planted around the base of the lots, forming an ecological border and blending seamlessly with the adjacent bushland. At its core, the Pepe Ridge development is about creating a high-quality, cohesive community that enhances the natural beauty of its surroundings. The developers have been clear in their intent to avoid the typical “cookie-cutter” developments; the covenants on the development require buyers to submit their building plans to a third-party architect to ensure each build upholds the aesthetic and ecological values of the development. An emphasis on architectural integrity and environmental preservation reinforces the Pepe Ridge Ltd team’s desire to create a legacy that adds value to both the town of Tairua, and its inhabitants. As the project moves toward completion, the Pepe Ridge development is ready to offer something truly special. Whether it’s retirees seeking a peaceful coastal lifestyle, younger families looking to embrace the Coromandel way of life or investors recognising the value of this unique development, Pepe Ridge offers a rare opportunity, preserving the tranquility and beauty of Tairua while providing a fresh, stylish sanctuary for generations to come. www.omnipartners.co.nz Proudly supporting Pepe Ridge Ltd www.enviroplanning.co.nz Proudly supporting Pepe Ridge Ltd We can help you with all your resource consenting needs.
