Christchurch’s Cranmer Terraces stands as a testament to luxurious urban living, says director of developer Huadu Development, Antony Geddes. “Buyer interest has been strong and 29 of the 44 townhouses have already sold,” he says. Antony puts this down to the unique proposition of Cranmer Terraces in the market: “Our product is very different from what’s currently available. Every aspect of Cranmer Terraces has been meticulously planned to offer an unparalleled living experience,” he says. The vision behind Cranmer Terraces was brought to life by MAP Architects, who were guided by a clear mandate – to create a luxurious oasis in the heart of Christchurch. Located near Cranmer Square and the iconic Hagley Park, these premium townhouses offer north or west facing outdoor living spaces and contemporary interiors. The townhouses are set within four distinct buildings, each showcasing its own unique colour palette to create a distinct identity. Large windows adorn each unit, inviting natural light to flow in and establishing a seamless connection with the surrounding environment. The interiors include premium fixtures, high-end appliances and cutting-edge features that promise an incomparable standard of comfort, says Antony. Despite its modern appeal, Cranmer Terraces effortlessly integrates into the fabric of the wider community. Seven original townhouses, constructed in the 1980s by Sheppard and Rout, have been thoughtfully retained, creating an intriguing interplay between the old and the new. “This architectural juxtaposition pays homage to the site’s history while offering a contemporary, elegant living experience,” Antony says. The development’s design also draws inspiration from the site’s rich history, embracing its scale and quality. A mix of brick veneer, render, and metal cladding ensures a diverse and characterful streetscape, while nodding to the traditional Christchurch architectural style. Antony says the location of Cranmer Terraces is indeed one of its most compelling attributes. The development has appealed to both owner-occupiers and investors, thanks to its proximity to premier shopping, dining, and entertainment destinations. For those who seek a more leisurely pace, lush green spaces and the tranquil Avon River surround the development. Cultural enthusiasts will enjoy the nearby Arts Centre and Te Puna o Waiwhetu, the city’s Art Gallery, says Antony. For families education options around Cranmer Terraces are also second to none, with prestigious institutions such as Christchurch Girls’ and Christchurch Boys’ High Schools in close proximity. The development’s two and three-bedroom options cater to families of all sizes, ensuring that everyone can find their ideal living space, says Antony. Each unit comes with at least one car parking space, and the larger units even feature a double garage. A common path with barbecue and communal areas, along with bicycle parking facilities, further enriches the sense of community, says Antony. As the sole owner of the project, Huadu International, under the stewardship of Jianping Wang, has brought Cranmer Terraces to life. “The development is a celebration of Christchurch’s past, present, and future, offering a harmonious blend of timeless elegance and contemporary luxury,” says Antony.
