The Awatea Escape project is a $30 million housing development in Paraparaumu, Kapiti Coast. It includes 30 free-standing homes and associated infrastructure, offering modern, high-quality residential living in a desirable location. The development focuses on well-designed amenities and sustainable land use, making it a valuable addition to the Kapiti Coast housing market.
Project management services were provided across all phases, from planning to completion. One significant challenge involved substantial earthworks in a residential area, requiring meticulous planning to minimise disruption to neighbours. Another was the creation of a wetland pond for natural stormwater management, ensuring environmentally sustainable drainage for the site.
Completed in 2023, with some ongoing works, the Awatea Escape project demonstrates a commitment to balancing residential quality with environmental considerations. It incorporates modern housing alongside green infrastructure, addressing both community needs and sustainability.
By integrating thoughtful design and sustainability, the project delivers a well-planned, environmentally conscious residential community. Awatea Escape stands as an example of successful land and housing development, combining innovative stormwater solutions with high-quality homes to enhance the Kapiti Coast’s housing options.
