102 | BUILDING BA Building T T Kim Newth Building quality homes for Mosgiel Mosgiel has seen significant and rapid growth over the past decade. In Otago, BA Building Limited is an experienced house and land developer with an extensive track record of successfully completed projects that are helping to meet local needs in the Dunedin housing market from Mosgiel to St Kilda. Director Brodie Anderson, who founded the company in 2008, is a certified licensed builder by trade. Born and bred in Dunedin and with 25 years’ industry experience, Brodie brings extensive local knowledge and experience to every new project. “Our team includes skilled builders and administration staff, along with our group of long-term local subcontractors that we know we can rely on,” says Brodie. “As a developer, I prefer to have a hands-on approach, so I am on-site every day, actively managing projects and making sure that everything is going smoothly and to a high standard.” Mosgiel has seen significant and rapid growth over the past decade, and this year BA Developments has been particularly active. Brodie and his team have recently built a number of centrally located, premium townhouses in Mosgiel that have been well received in the local market. According to the recently released Dunedin Future Development Strategy (FDS) 20242054, high demand for homes in Mosgiel is expected to continue over the coming three decades. Mosgiel is also a popular retirement location. As the Dunedin FDS notes, community feedback suggests that Mosgiel is attractive to older people with poor mobility because it is flat and it’s easy for them to get to local services. “In actual fact, we are finding there is really strong demand from people who are not necessarily retired but are looking to downsize; people are wanting to future- proof themselves – they are wanting something that is new, warm and with a lot less maintenance than a big family home.” Two new, quality townhouses recently completed by BA Building in Dryden Street, Mosgiel were designed with local needs in mind and a strong desire for them to be close to Mosgiel’s main street, while continuing to provide warm, sunny, spacious, low-maintenance modern living. Now, Brodie and his team are attracting plenty of local attention with their next newbuild townhouse development commencing on another centrally located Mosgiel site – 19 Church Street, soon to be renamed Armson Close. “It is the perfect location, right in the heart of Mosgiel – it would be hard to get any closer to the main street. “We’re building six new, premium-quality townhouses. Since we started work on this site a couple of months ago, we’ve had people coming up to us just about every day wanting to know what we’re doing and interested in the details.” This latest project is made up of six townhouses in three standalone duplexes. Each townhouse has a tasteful two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout and a carpeted garage with laundry. Buyers looking to downsize will find generous storage in these homes, including the contemporary kitchen’s walk-in pantry. The main bedroom includes a walk-in robe and a luxurious tiled ensuite. These townhouses will also boast spacious openplan living with the ranch slider opening to a Kwila hardwood deck and a courtyard fitted with a lifestyle lawn that will not need to be maintained in order to stay green and trim year round. Externally, these homes have been designed to present very well with a plaster finish topped with long-lasting ColorSteel roofing. With the floor slabs and framing already completed, these new townhouses are on track to be finished this spring (November 2024). Tiling, Screeding, Waterproofing and Underfloor Heating Installation.
