Bealey Ave show home set to impress

Those planning a new home dream in 2019 are sure to ﬁnd inspiration at Golden Homes’ Christchurch showhome on the corner of Bealey Ave and Madras Street.
Following a meticulous renovation and reﬁt, completed in December 2018, this chic design classic is brimming with style and boasts many contemporary features that could be easily replicated by clients wishing to incorporate them into their own Golden Home.
Following its launch in February 2019, the showhome is poised to be a popular destination in the local home buyers’ market this year.
Golden Homes is well-established in Christchurch, having built more than 1000 homes in and around the city over the past 20 years. The Bealey Ave showho me is a key part of Golden Homes’ South Island hub of operations and a true showcase of the company’s capabilities.
Sited on a 715sqm tastefully landscaped section, the 242sqm home boasts four bedrooms, two bathrooms, laundry, kitchen with walk-in pantry and three living areas with all interior spaces very generously sized. Oriented for sun, the home and its grounds have also been designed to mitigate exposure to Christchurch’s prevailing easterly winds.
“It’s great for people to come in and see it: they can take a look at features in the kitchen and bathroom areas and check out the size of the bedrooms and then start thinking about what aspects they may want to replicate in their own plans,” says Dean McGuigan, Director of Golden Homes South Island.
“We’ve got 150 designs to choose from and plenty of house and land packages available too with new options continually coming on stream.”
Hot spots for new home growth include Rolleston, Lincoln and North Canterbury. “Demand is still at good levels, with a lot of ﬁrst home buyers too.”
Golden Homes uses a Gold Standard Building System, which means homes are designed for New Zealand lifestyles and conditions using top quality ﬁttings, finishes and building materials.
Homes are built on RibRaft concrete ﬂoors, while ZOG® steel framing is used for structural strength. The system includes many other components designed to ensure homes are warm, dry, weathertight, durable and energy efﬁcient.
“The reason why we use the gold standard is to deliver longevity and that high level of personal comfort and well-being.

“Our goal is not to build mediocre homes for the cheapest price, but to build quality homes with superior ﬁttings and features that will stand the test of time.” Golden Homes works closely with clients to make the whole process easy and exciting.
Designs are tailored to match people’s lifestyles and individual needs. In–house designers are available to offer advice on everything from colours to drapes, tiles and vinyl.
“We have lots of pre-designed plans. We advise people to pick the design that’s 80 per cent right for their lifestyle and then we can adjust it to get it 100 per cent perfect for them. “We can also work with client’s own designs.”
