Fairfield Waters

This residential development of 20 dwellings comprises of a mix of two-storey townhouses, single-storey standalone homes. Fairfield Waters is an exciting new residential community that brings a new living typology to Lower Hutt. Located on a site previously occupied by the former Summit Road Plant Nursery, this residential development of 20 dwellings comprises a mix of two-storey townhouses, single-storey standalone homes and a cluster of 6 two-storey two-bedroom units. Creating a higher density development within an established residential area was a key challenge, with the interaction to the adjacent Waiwhetu Stream and the street an important element of the design. Careful design attention to the individual interactions between houses, combined with a fresh modern architecture that respects the surrounds has created an environment that has been well accepted by the market. Completion is due around March 2018 “Creating a higher density development within an established residential area was a key challenge.”
