20 | A lifestyle suited to everyone Stage 1 sections are now selling at Bellgrove, a high quality development on Rangiora’s northeaster fringe. Ray White Morris & Co - Bellgrove Rangiora DEVELOPMENT T Kim Newth With Stage 1 sections now selling at Bellgrove Rangiora, now is the ideal time for prospective homeowners, builders and investors to explore the wide range of available options. Bellgrove is a high-quality development on Rangiora’s northeastern rural fringe. The development is ideally situated with its neighbours including the local high school and golf club as well as the MainPower Sports Stadium. Rangiora town centre is just a short stroll away. Bellgrove also offers an easy connection to SH1 for the commute into Christchurch. Bellgrove’s developer has a solid track record, having previously offered Westpark Rangiora to the local market. At the heart of Stage 1 is the original Bellgrove Homestead (c 1880), providing an architectural anchor and continuity with the area’s history. Sales consultant Stuart Morris, of Ray White Rangiora, says Bellgrove has a lifestyle for everyone from first home buyers to downsizing retirees or people wanting an upgrade to a bigger property. Sections for sale range between 330sqm and 1127sqm, priced upwards of $300,000. To date, 60 per cent of sections in Stage 1 have sold. That includes a 15-home showhome village involving 14 different building companies. “Rangiora has never seen such a wide variety of housing options in a subdivision,” says Stuart. “We have standalone build sections for family homes as well as medium density duplex and townhouse living options. We have reserve facing, north facing premium lots right through to small affordable options. To have a fully diversified inclusive subdivision like this is the way of the future.” Housing companies and builders have been leading the charge on sections at Bellgrove to date. Civil constructions works are getting underway this month (August 2022) and Stuart expects house and land packages will start to be offered before the end of the year, with titles to follow in 2023. Private home buyers who wish to choose their own architect and builder are free to do so, provided covenants to safeguard quality are met. A 10% deposit will secure a preferred, fully serviced lot. “If you’re thinking about that option, now is perfect time to secure a section. You’ve then got a year to design your home, choose a builder and pop your plans to the Council. The cost of building is likely to increase, but it might still be possible to secure a reasonable rate at the moment.” For the investor, Ray White Morris and Co Property Management offer award winning personalised property management to ensure new homes will be well looked after. A commercial centre is planned for Bellgrove’s first stage. “There will be some great retail and hospitality opportunities coming up. We’ve already secured someone to run our preschool; they’re an operator embedded in North Canterbury and seeking to extend their reach.” Bellgrove’s first stage fronts onto Kippenberger Ave. There are four more stages to come in the masterplan, extending all the way back to the local golf course. “It is not often that the chance comes up to get aboard a premier development like this at ground zero. In my experience, it is the best time to get involved.” IANZ APPROVED SAMPLERS 0800 4 METH TEST (0800 463 848) | admin@methtestcanterbury.nz | methtestcanterbury.nz METHAMPHETAMINE - Methamphetamine, more commonly referred to as ‘P’, Crystal Meth or Meth, is a Class A controlled substance under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1978 meaning it attracts the highest penalties for manufacture, traf cking, sale and use.
