STAGED TO GROW. BUILT TO LAST.
Stage One is now selling — and it sets the tone for everything to come.
This first release introduces the foundation of Kōtare Estate: a secure, freehold lifestyle community designed to deliver both instant livability and long-term upside.
Included in Stage One:
-
Freehold Sections (Lots 1–3 & 30–38): Spacious, build-ready land with rural and mountain-facing outlooks.
-
Units 1–7: Architecturally designed flats — ideal for downsizers, investors, or lock-and-leave owners.
-
Secure Carparks: Covered and uncovered options available for peace of mind and added value.
-
Shared Green Space: Landscaped communal gardens to unwind, gather, and grow.
Fully consented and infrastructure-ready, Stage One offers instant access to value — whether you're building your future home, securing rental yield, or holding land for capital growth. No leasehold. No ongoing charges. Just land you own, and a future you shape.
WHAT’S NEXT — STAGE TWO
Once Stage One is complete, Stage Two will expand the estate with more premium sections and a 1.9-hectare reserve—featuring open green space, walking areas, and a proposed motorhome/caravan zone. It’s the next evolution of Kōtare Estate’s lifestyle promise.
Covenants for Kotare Estate: Ensuring Exclusivity and Long-term Value
To maintain the premium nature of Kōtare Estate and protect the investment value for all homeowners, the following covenants are presented in draft form. These covenants are designed to create a cohesive, high-end living environment, aligned with the standards expected of New Zealand’s most upmarket subdivisions. Please note that any plans, modifications, or external additions must receive formal approval from the developer to ensure consistency and quality across the community.
Architectural Standards All homes must reflect the estate’s modern executive style, using approved materials. All designs require approval from the developer to ensure a cohesive appearance throughout the community.
Landscaping Requirements Homeowners must maintain their gardens and lawns in a tidy, well-kept condition, with an emphasis on native plants and low-maintenance landscaping. This contributes to the sustainable and upscale aesthetic of the community. Overgrown lawns, invasive species, or neglected gardens are not permitted.
Noise Control Excessive noise is prohibited, particularly between 9 PM and 7 AM. This includes construction work, loud music, or gatherings, to ensure the peaceful living environment of Kotare Estate is preserved.
Minimum build Timeframe All sites must begin construction within 12–18 months of the issue of title to ensure timely development and maintain the estate’s growth momentum.
No Commercial Activities Kotare Estate is strictly residential. No commercial activities or businesses may be operated from any property. This restriction ensures the estate retains its peaceful and exclusive residential atmosphere.
Holiday Rental Restrictions Short-term holiday rentals (e.g., Airbnb) are prohibited within Kotare Estate. This ensures a stable, semi-permanent community and maintains the exclusive nature of the development.
