One of the earliest developments we managed from sourcing a site through to marketing the units for sale for AEL, completed in 2003 being the centrally located 6 x 3 levels in permanent materials and still very much standard post Christchurch Earthquakes.

Multi-Family Housing – Brockworth Place, Riccarton, Christchurch Key Clients: AEL Financial Investors and Affordable Housing Purchasers. Developer: Dan Tremewan. Architects: Noordanus. Construction: AMC Project Team: In-house Contractors. The Brief: To create two sets of seven 3-4 bedroom townhouses in this rapidly changing area of Riccarton, for young professionals working close to Hagley Park, households that needed to be in the Christchurch Boys and Girls High School zone. All were to be north facing to create a warm, sunny living environment suitable for young families. Project Realisation: Floor areas ranged from 105 to 140 square metres, and typical of an Āhei multimillion dollar new build project the actual square metre realised was below the industry (Rawlinson’s) benchmark. A quality product was delivered while retaining margins through careful planning and execution, all within the desired timeframe and all sold easily to the target market.

440, 450 & 461 Barbadoes St, St Albans, Christchurch

The developments from 6 – 9 units, 2- 3 levels, and one of 2. Every unit is north-facing, creating a warm, sunny living environment.

Compact Urban Housing – Barbadoes Street, St Albans, Christchurch Key Clients: AEL Financial and Affordable Housing Purchasers. Developer: Dan Tremewan. Architects: Dalman Architecture. Construction: Lanyon & Le Compte. Project Team: In-house Contractors. The Brief: To provide more compact housing in line with the densities desired by council as set out in the city plan. Project Realisation: Both developments (one of 9 units and one of 6 units) were 3-level Tilt-Slab construction, prefabricated offsite, to reduce onsite time bringing costs in line with lighter wood framed in-situ alternatives. Every unit was created facing north using natural solar energy and the thermal mass of the panels to create a temperate, light living environment. The inexpensive exteriors and roofs balanced out upfront construction costs with the on-going savings from reduced energy, maintenance and replacement costs the clients would face over the lifetime of the building. Re-sale value of these units has been strong partly because of their durability.
