Homes can take care of everything
from permits to resource consents,

The home’s 191m2 floor area incorporates three
bedrooms and a study, with the master bedroom
having a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. There
is also internal access from the double garage –
everything is about an easy family lifestyle.

options offered. It’s about tweaking any one of
our one hundred-plus plans to meet your own
location, aesthetic tastes and family needs.

This showhome’s light, airy kitchen has the
convenience of soft-close drawers, the latest
Fisher & Paykel appliances and a Mineralstone
benchtop with a Diamond Gloss finish.
Part of the national group’s success is due to
its broad industry connections – meaning great
value for top quality products all contribute to
the finish of a GJ Gardner home.
