MASTER ELECTRICIANS Electrical Contractors Association of NZ Te Kaitiaki o Haumaru Nelson Growcott Freer Property Ltd has fast gained a respected place in the Christchurch townhouse market since launching in 2018. Company directors Nicholas Growcott and Isaac Freer are lifelong friends, both born and bred in Christchurch and sharing industry experience having worked on spec home projects while completing their apprenticeships. Growcott Freer Property was born out of their shared vision to build ‘anything but ordinary’ for their hometown market. “We absolutely love our liveable city,” says Isaac. “With all the development that has taken place in the CBD post-earthquake, it really does lend itself to being a wonderful place to live; for us, that’s living near open green space, top eateries and close to our incredible cycleways – just to name a few.” The Growcott Freer Property team sets a high value on transparency and honest conversations. It has paved the way to a strong track record of completing quality, beautiful townhouses, on time and on budget. “We take immense pride in our hands on approach and the relationships we have fostered with our investors, contractors and homeowners. “We want to provide our homeowners with a townhouse that they are proud to call their home – beautifully designed, with a logical layout, warm and accessible to all the things they love most.” Since 2018, Growcott Freer Property has handed over 43 new homes across eight sought-after developments and currently has 70 homes across five different sites either under construction or in planning. All are in Ōtautahi Christchurch. “We spend considerable time on the design stage of our projects. It’s not just the overall architectural look that sets our townhouses apart, but also the well thought out floor plan that our homeowners love. Be it the open plan living that opens to a private terrace or the separate guest powder room, the devil is in the detail.” Their popular townhouses range in size and scope with one-bedroom homes from 55sqm through to three-bedroom homes up to 147sqm. Current sales are showing real demand for two-bedroom, two-bathroom townhouses, as these are more affordable than larger homes. In the CBD, Growcott Freer Property also likes to ensure there is garaging and/or off-street parking available with their townhouses, wherever possible. Growcott Freer Property’s skilled builders and tradespeople are hand-picked and have worked with them for years. Every townhouse is thoroughly assessed by their highly experienced Quality Control Officer before keys are handed over to clients. Providing added assurance of quality service is having a very experienced and competent pair of hands at the helm, namely general manager Vaughan Ellis. He brings with him multiple years of building industry experience as well as considerable supply chain experience with some of Canterbury’s best building and construction companies. “This has helped shape his passion for seeing and being a part of creating high quality buildings,” observes Isaac, adding that Vaughan also has an uncanny knack for being a calm and efficient coordinator. Growcott Freer Property has a number of 2-3 bedroom and 2-3 bathroom townhouses currently available in the CBD, Merivale and Addington as well as 2 bed, 2 bath homes in Bishopdale. Isaac says that even with rising interest rates, most of their homes are comparatively affordable as they are priced under the first home buyers grant limit. Typical of many endorsements received by Growcott Freer Property is a recent testimonial from purchaser Andy Ross who praised them for a great build, completed on time and budget and for being a pleasure to deal with. “Receiving positive feedback from our homeowners is one of the best parts of the job!”
