T T Karen Phelps Homebuyers looking to build in the Bay of Plenty have more options than ever, with Golden Homes Bay of Plenty offering everything from affordable first homes in Te Puke through to bespoke multi-generational residences and premium spec homes. While the company continues to deliver custom builds across the region, one of its biggest current focuses is Te Mania, a master-planned community in Te Puke designed to provide an affordable pathway into home ownership. Stage Five of the development is due for release next year, with three and four-bedroom house and land packages available for buyers seeking a new home in one of the Bay of Plenty’s fastest-growing areas. “There is nowhere here where you can get a new first home for the price we are offering, starting at $739,000 for a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home on its own section,” says sales consultant at Golden Homes Bay of Plenty Tony Heywood. “It’s a really good price point.” He says Te Mania has been designed to appeal particularly to first-home buyers with Te Puke’s thriving kiwifruit industry continuing to attract workers and families. “The main growth in the Bay of Plenty is the kiwifruit industry and Te Puke is the home of that industry. The focus of Te Mania is on firsthome buyers who want to move here and live there,” says Tony. The 380-section master-planned development has been designed to create a community with landscaped public spaces, low-maintenance living and a proposed childcare centre. Residents are within easy reach of Papamoa Beach, Tauranga, Rotorua and Whakatāne, while Te Puke itself offers schools, shops, cafés, sporting facilities and healthcare services. Golden Homes Bay of Plenty also caters for buyers at the other end of the market, with completed homes available right now ready to move into in Golden Sands, Papamoa and plans to open a new show home in Maea Fields, Matamata, later this year alongside two completed house and land packages. Led by Steve and Julie Minto, who have more than 20 years of industry experience, the company builds throughout an extensive region stretching from Waihi Beach to Whakatāne and inland to Rotorua. “We’re a very flexible company in terms of our offering to clients. We build on our own land, or land already owned by our clients, tailoring the design to match the site,” says Tony. Its work ranges from entry-level homes through to highly customised architectural projects. “We’re building a 388sqm, two-storey home with five bedrooms and five bathrooms for a multi-generational family at the moment. It’s a very customised design and build project,” says Tony. Prospective buyers can also experience the company’s workmanship firsthand by visiting its show home at 6 Farrier Street in Papamoa’s Terrace Views. The four-bedroom, 258sqm home showcases Golden Homes’ steel-frame construction, spacious living areas and premium finishes. “Steel framing is absolutely true. It doesn’t warp, crack or twist like traditional timber framing. It also cannot be impacted by moisture nor harbour mould,” says Tony.
