2 New Christchurch Show Homes

We are very excited about the two new Christchurch show homes that we are building this year. The first in the Highsted Residential subdivision is due to be completed in June, while the second home in Prebbleton’s Sterling Park will be finished in September.

Accessibility and tranquility in Highsted

The stunning new Christchurch show home that the David Reid Homes Canterbury team is building at 231 Highsted Rd is going to transform the lives of whoever is lucky enough to buy it.

The location in the Highsted Residential subdivision in the sought after northwest corner of Christchurch offers easy access to the central city, the Northern Motorway and the airport, as well as the convenience of a number of nearby shopping malls.

Despite the close proximity of shops and transport links, there will be lots of opportunities for the new owners to get active by running, walking or cycling on the tracks leading to nearby reserves and parks. The setting of our Highsted show home is very tranquil, overlooking a stream and native plantings. The home’s generous floor to ceiling windows will allow the new owners to make the most of this restful vista

Striking and functional design

The spacious 274 sqm home has two separate wings joined by an entrance foyer that looks out onto a centrally positioned courtyard, which is accessible from both the bedroom wing and the living wing.

The open plan kitchen, dining and living area is ideal for entertaining and includes a walk-in pantry off the kitchen. The adjoining media room houses a gas fire and can be shut off for cosy movie nights in the winter. The living wing also includes the fourth bedroom which is accessed from the entranceway, making it an ideal study or office for those who work from home.

Having a separate bedroom wing allows for privacy and a clear demarcation between the living and sleeping areas. The master suite includes an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, while the other two bedrooms in this wing are serviced by the main bathroom and a separate toilet. The separate laundry room leads from this wing into the attached double garage.

Two particularly striking architectural features of this Christchurch show home are its vertical Linea weatherboard cladding and cathedral ceilings in the master bedroom and media, living and dining areas, which further add to the home’s feeling of spaciousness. The house is built of practical, hardwearing materials so that the lucky owner will be able to enjoy their new home and lifestyle without having to worry about ongoing maintenance.

Polish and panache in Prebbleton

The second of the Christchurch show homes that we are building this year is at 109 Sterling Park in popular Prebbleton. Sterling Park is an exclusive tree-lined subdivision, featuring high quality homes and offering the best of country living in this picturesque village on the outskirts of Christchurch.

Our Sterling Park show home also has vertical linea weatherboard cladding with the addition of rusticated cedar weatherboards as a feature. Moving inside, polished concrete flooring in the entranceway and open plan kitchen, dining and living areas is both stylish and practical.

This 211 sqm home has three bedrooms, a separate study and a media room. The master bedroom, which has an ensuite and walk-in robe, open out onto its own hardwood deck. Meanwhile, the main deck is accessed from both the living area and the media room.

This thoughtful design includes plenty of storage and everything a family could want for comfortable, modern living.
