32 | Summerset Prebbleton T T Kim Newth New centre underway at popular village Located in the heart of Prebbleton, south-west of Christchurch, this beautiful new village is well-positioned close to local shops and just a short drive from the Lincoln Golf Club and city amenities. REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT Residents at Summerset Prebbleton are excited to see the progress being made on their new 9000sqm village centre that will soon come to life as a vibrant social hub with resort-style facilities. This fast-growing village is attracting demand from all over New Zealand, with residents coming from Geraldine, Nelson and Wellington. Located in the heart of Prebbleton, southwest of Christchurch, this beautiful new village is well-positioned close to local shops and just a short drive from the Lincoln Golf Club and city amenities. The village is almost at its halfway point, in terms of home construction, with 93 villas and seven cottages sold to date, and with ongoing demand driving further sales. “Across New Zealand, Summerset is seeing a real pick-up in sales,” says Joe Roberts, Summerset Group construction manager. “We have been seeing a consistent improvement since the start of May. It has been really pleasing to see that turnaround in the market.” Summerset was founded on a deep respect for residents, and that ethos is evident at Summerset Prebbleton, where 127 residents are now enjoying the exceptional retirement lifestyle on offer. “We get a lot of great feedback on the high-quality standard we provide,” says Joe. ‘We constantly seek out improvement based on what our residents tell us. Our spacious villas offer contemporary kitchen, bathroom and laundry facilities, and have a refined pallet designed to deliver a lovely modern look and feel. They’re attractively presented and provide that maintenance-free retirement living that so many are now seeking.” Options range from stylish modern villas and cottages to serviced apartments. For current residents, anticipation is growing as framing and concrete work nears completion on their new village centre. This spring, the roofing is due to be installed. Once it opens, residents will be able to access a wide range of top-quality facilities, including a welcoming café, a residents’ bar, exercise room, swimming pool and indoor spa pool, TV lounge, library, hair salon and more. There will be enticing outdoor options close at hand, too, such as a recreational bowling green, barbecue facilities and communal vegetable gardens. In the meantime, Summerset Prebbleton residents have an elegant temporary recreation centre at their disposal. It is a well-heated, welcoming place for residents, friends and family to get together for a coffee or lunch, and offers a full line-up of facilities from kitchen, toilets and pool table to a comfortable TV room. Grouped around the new hospitality and recreational facilities will be 60 serviced apartments, 36 care suites, plus a 20-suite memory care centre with a central communal courtyard. Summerset’s memory care centres are designed to enable people living with dementia to continue to lead active lives in a safe and homely environment. “We’re guided by our resident-centric philosophy. Our memory care centres aim to create a world-class setting for those living with dementia,” says Joe. • Commercial • Residential • Industrial • Maintenance • Sheet Metal Fabrication GAS WORKS & PLUMBING LIMITED SUPPLY, INSTALL & SERVICE SPECIALISING IN ALL WATER HEATING & HOME HEATING SOLUTIONS www.gasworksandplumbing.co.nz WHANGAREI 0800 400 192 28 Porowini Ave, Morningside, Whangarei 0110 BAY of ISLANDS OFFICE 1229 Bulls Road, KERIKERI Proudly supporting Summerset Group Holdings Showroom, Factory 345 Brougham Street, Sydenham, Christchurch 8023 mks.co.nz Ph.
