102 | BUILDING Fowler Homes Southland T T Russell Fredric Making a splash in new subdivision Fowler Homes Southland is offering a range of house and land packages in its McQuarrie Street Development in Kingswell. Fowler Homes Southland is making its mark in Invercargill with a new 23 lot subdivision in its McQuarrie Street Development in Kingswell. Owned and run by Buster Coughtrey along with business partner Jason McGirr, Fowler Homes Southland is offering a range of house and land packages in the subdivision. Buster says demand so far has been very positive, with eight turn-key house and land packages sold by January this year, while another five lots are currently design-and-build consented, plus a show home will also be built on site this year. The pre-consented houses vary from 127m2 priced from $570,000, to 162m2 priced from $705,000. “I think it’s fantastic for the region, the price point is probably exactly where it needs to be. I think the concept and the way it’s going to be finished with the landscaping the roading is probably of a higher calibre than some. We are already getting a cross section of people wanting to go there.” These include those wanting to downsize, first home buyers, people moving into the region and investors. The subdivision is well located, being in close proximity to early childhood education, primary and secondary schools, Southland Hospital and South City Mall which includes a supermarket, while a walk/bike track is immediately adjacent. Invercargill is experiencing considerable renewal and economic development. It is extremely well served with top-class amenities and facilities, plus a radical $180 million rebuild of its central retail area which includes a new mall and a new multi-storey hotel is close to complete. Fowler Homes Southland’s commitment to the new subdivision not only makes good business sense, but contributes to the need for quality, affordable housing stock, and more widely to support this economic growth, Buster says. With many people having achieved a good capital gain on their existing homes in recent years, the ability to purchase a new, energy efficient house that meets healthy home standards is a great opportunity, he says. “The house and land packages include everything; blinds, curtains, carpets, appliances, grass landscaped and driveways. People can have a brand new home with a 10 year guarantee, they know that it’s built to today’s building code; they can potentially downsize and put some money in the bank.” Fowler Homes Southland employs three inhouse designers and offers a full design and build service, but can also build to almost any plan, including full architectural designs. Buster and Jason are both Licensed Building Practitioners and foundational to their ethos is building a reputation of transparency, trust, and uncompromising results. The pair are clearly passionate about the industry, bring considerable experience to the business. Jason has wide ranging experience with nearly 20 years in the construction and management industries, as well as being a seasoned property investor. Buster, who is trade qualified in carpentry and joinery has been in the building industry for over 35 years. Born in England, he also has expertise and experience in construction and project management. “I guess with my attention to detail, I’m quite picky because of the joinery and cabinetry making side, I’m quite precise. I like things 100% right.” He has also worked in key roles in both Certified Builders and Master Builders. Fowler Homes Southland is very fortunate to be very well resourced both in-house, and through having access to a comprehensive array of subtrades from electricians, plumbers and interior designers to geotechnical engineers and others, Buster says. “We do have a very good loyal team and they know how we want to build and what our standards are, and we’re very fortunate that we are supported by very good subtrades around us.” Joiners of simple sophistication Christchurch p. 03 348 4890 Queenstown p. 03 409 0809 e. info@nordzco.co.nz w. nordzco.co.nz P: (03) 445 0305 16 Wolter Cres, Cromwell E: central@designwindows.co.nz W: www.designwindows.co.nz Proud Supplier for Fowler Homes Southland Specialising in all general domestic, residential and light commerical plumbing, we deliver quality solutions to Southland's plumbing needs. 027 932 8669 www.southlandplumbingandgas.co.nz 03 748 1400 3 Bond Place, Invercargill Invercargill.Plumbing.NZ@reece.co.nz CONTACT US group reece TM
