| 87 BUILDING Westside Building T T Karen Phelps Enjoyable journey from start to finish WSB’s partnership with local practice Three Fold Architecture has resulted in some special homes. Christchurch-based building company Westside Building (WSB) offers a truly personal approach to building and an unwavering commitment to providing an enjoyable journey from start to finish, says company director Michael Connell. With a focus on attention to detail and a unique offering of architectural house and land packages on the hills, WSB has a real point of difference. Building on the hills presents a significant challenge due to the degree of complexity it brings, says Michael, however WSB embraces this challenge, specialising in top-end homes that showcase the workmanship and attention to detail its dedicated team of builders provides. “Unlike other companies that outsource their projects, WSB keeps it in-house, maintaining a small, tight-knit team that is heavily involved in every aspect of the construction process,” explains Michael. “This deliberate approach allows us to focus on a limited number of builds each year, ensuring a personal touch and a higher level of quality.” One of WSB’s current projects is a house and land package in the suburb of Redcliffs, located at 6 Daring Lane. The impressive home boasts over 300 square metres of living space including four bedrooms and two living areas. Situated on the lower slopes, it offers breath-taking views of the estuary mouth. The house is split over two storeys with a garage located underneath, providing both functionality and aesthetic appeal. WSB’s partnership with local practice Three Fold Architecture has resulted in some special homes, says Michael. For instance they have a project in Clifton Heights subdivision, where they are building a home over three split-levels to harmonise with the surrounding environment. “This design allows residents to enjoy unparalleled views of the ocean, Kaikoura ranges, estuary and Brighton pier, as well as the rural Port Hills landscape,” he says. The home encompasses four bedrooms, two living areas, a private outdoor bath off the master bedroom ensuite and expansive outdoor living spaces that capture the breath-taking views. Being members of New Zealand Certified Builders, WSB ensures that its team meets the highest standards of craftsmanship. Their expertise and attention to detail are evident in projects like the one on Huntsbury Avenue, which is currently underway. Michael says this custom design and build project for a client showcases the company’s ability to create unique homes that cater to individual needs and preferences. “With ocean and rural views, three bedrooms, two hobby rooms, two living areas, and an office, this 320-square-meter family home exemplifies the complexity and innovation that WSB brings to each project,” he says. “Bringing a home to life from a set of plans on the hill requires the right knowledge and a company with the right systems in place. That’s where WSB’s experience, company dynamic and group of trusted sub trades sets it apart and will deliver on time and on budget. We really understand the importance of building strong relationships with clients, making the entire building process hassle-free and enjoyable. To achieve this we take the time to get to know our clients personally, which allows us to tailor our services to individual preferences and requirements resulting in some pretty special homes.” TAI TAPU BASED 027 469 7076 | wdearthworks@gmail.com FIND US ON Hill Site Specialist
