Milestone Homes - Mid Canterbury BUILDING Milestone Homes Mid Canterbury is anticipating a mid-year opening for their gorgeous new three-bedroom, two-bathroom showhome at Strowan Fields, just west of Ashburton. For Steve and Belinda Pearce, the husband-and-wife team who recently joined the Milestone Homes family, this project is an exciting opportunity to debut and showcase the Milestone Homes option in the local market. “We are thrilled to have commenced construction of our new showhome on Strowan Ave in the showhome village, says Belinda. “As this is a showhome first for Milestone Homes Mid Canterbury, we’re super excited. We’re already starting to plan the grand opening for around June this year.” As long-time owners of Pearce Builders in Ashburton, the couple bring a strong construction background to the franchise. Joining the group has been their big next step, ushering in a new phase of beautiful new home building with Milestone Homes at Ashburton’s premium residential development. Close to the heart of Ashburton and with stunning surroundings and views, Strowan Fields has been planned as a quality community with attractive streetscapes and plenty of greenspace. “Strowan Fields is the only development of this scale in Mid Canterbury and it came along at the right time for us. We live close to that area and love the location: you’re on the outskirts of town yet at the same time so close to everything.” Milestone Homes Mid Canterbury’s new 205sqm showhome was inspired by one that Belinda and Steve saw in Nelson while on a study tour with Milestone Homes. The design comes from one of Milestone Homes’ popular family-focussed plans (Milestone 07). “We made a few practical design changes. For example, the scullery opens from the kitchen and into the double garage too, so you can bring your groceries straight into the scullery rather than having to walk back around and through the house. The dining area has big open doors to the deck and we upgraded the master ensuite with fully tiled shower and flooring. “We love the inclusion of a separate lounge space in the design: the kids can play in there while their parents have some peace - or parents can shut themselves in for some quiet time!” The thermal performance of this showhome will be a step above, easily meeting new building code requirements coming in this year. There will be built-in ducted heating, thermally broken low E glass, insulated flooring and extra thick wall and roof insulation. Expect this showhome to be well-presented too, with a fully landscaped section. For those with new home dreams, this showhome will demonstrate what they can expect from a standard Milestone Homes plan. “People will be able to walk in and see what they get as standard and what we price for. It includes coving and architraves to give that nicer finish, quality Fisher & Paykel appliances and Belgotex carpet. They will also be able to check out the upgraded bathroom and see what that option looks like.” Belinda and Steve are both passionate about their community, with professional local tradespeople and suppliers involved in the showhome build. As well as the new showhome, Milestone Homes Mid Canterbury has three more new homes already underway at Strowan Fields. “We still have six sections available from 525sqm to 700sqm. We have a house designed, consented and ready to go on one of the sections. It’s a gorgeous three-bedroom, 180sqm home on a corner site. You could be the future owners of Number One Strowan Ave!” Proud supplier to Milestone Homes Loyal Interior Plastering FOR ALL YOUR PLASTERBOARD STOPPING.
