| 85 T T Richard Loader From well-designed homes at the more affordable end of the spectrum through to very high-end homes architecturally designed by Jennian Homes’ own design team, the design and build company’s offering is comprehensive, Jennian Homes - Canterbury: Strowan Fields BUILDING Dwayne Prendergast, the Co-Director of Jennian Homes Canterbury, has a strong personal connection with the land on which Ashburton’s Strowan Fields’ residential development is built. On the edge of Ashburton township, Strowan Fields is a large subdivision with a breathtaking rural outlook that offers plenty of green spaces for its community of residents. “For the first five years of my life I grew up across the road from the development, back in the day when it was still mid-Canterbury farmland, so I had a passion for the area. My family still lives in the area.” The other thing that drew Dwayne to the development was the lack of land to build homes in Ashburton. Strowan Fields is the first major development in the town for a very long time and Dwayne liked the idea that Jennian Homes would play a significant role in the town’s expansion. He says there is a distinct lack of quality rental properties in Ashburton, and Strowan Fields also provides an opportunity for investors to increase the rental stock with warm, quality homes. With beautiful streets, wide open spaces and close to the heart of Ashburton town, there is a lot to love about Strowan Fields and the growing community within it. Stages One and Two have now been completed with the building of homes well advanced, while Stage Three is currently under construction, with titles due early 2024. Jennian Homes Canterbury had eighteen house and land packages in Stages One and Two, of which only six are left, varying between 600m2 to 700m2, and price points for house and land packages from the early $700,000s to $800,000. Jennian Homes currently has two show homes under construction within Strowan Fields’ Show Home Village, which will be completed in September this year. “We’re showcasing two examples of what we can offer clients in terms of craftsmanship, quality, style and design. Both homes will be over 200sqm, single storey and four bedrooms. The first is an H-Frame executive home, designed to showcase our ability to design and build very architectural homes. It will feature a high cathedral ceiling spanning the large open living spaces, tiled ensuite and Rockcote cladding. The other home is a standard Jennian design, high-quality and with a nice flow for a young family, showcasing what a first home buyer could have through Jennian Homes.” Based in Sockburn, Christchurch, Jennian Homes Canterbury’s large territory stretches from Waimati through to Kaikoura, with a sales and project management team based in Timaru/Ashburton, and overseen by the Christchurch team. From well-designed homes at the more affordable end of the spectrum through to very high-end homes architecturally designed by Jennian Homes’ own design team, the design and build company’s offering is comprehensive, always with lifestyle, quality and integrity in mind. “We have a diverse range of ‘off-the-shelf plans, but they’re really a starting point for customers to visualise what they might like in a new home. Most homes are tailored, designed and built for the customers’ personal living needs and lifestyles. Clients can also bring their own completed plans to us for construction. From the time the client expresses an interest in building with us, right through to design, consenting, construction and handover, strong project management is one of the beauties of building with Jennian Homes Canterbury.” Dwayne acknowledges that an important part of building is the end-to-end project management, to keep the process moving ahead quickly. “There are different specialist team members involved in different parts of the journey. We also have our own design centre called Studio J that showcases all types of products and building materials that we use that clients can view, touch and talk to us about. At least eighty percent of the products that we use are New Zealand made, and we trust the products that we put into our homes.” Connection to Strowan We are proud to be one of Jennian’s preferred driveway, patio and path installers. 13 Robinson St, Riverside Industrial Estate, Ashburton Tony Worsfold 0274 508 191 or Call 03 307 6466 | www.paveco.co.nz CONGRATULATIONS JENNIAN 021 440 364 admin@elitescaffolding.net.nz TM Leading the way in custom joinery for over 25 years.
