The Birdwood Estates subdivision in Massey gives purchasers the benefit of country-style living, only 10-15 minutes drive from main centres, including central Auckland. 

The development was designed to meet the needs of two different types of buyers – those who prefer standard sized sections, in a rural residential setting, as well those to whom larger sections are a requirement.  The size of the larger sections allows generous site coverage, whilst still preserving sought after rural elements, such as large greenspaces, native flora and fauna and privacy.

The developer opted for the creation of a 4 hectare recreation reserve, an area in excess of what was required under the Waitakere City Council operative plan.  It was considered in keeping with the nature of the site and the surrounding area to preserve native bush and maximize the reserve area - not compromise the development by overcrowding with sections. 

The additional reserve land will be used to assist in the development of Waitakere City Council’s Twinstreams Project – an urban sustainability initiative designed to increase native bush, household efficiency and community engagement.  This will include development of a mountain biking facility in the adjacent Te Rangi Hiroa Reserve.

Birdwood Estate’s lead agent, Russell Benshaw from KEY2 comments:  

“The news is all positive for residential property at present. With a shortage of houses for sale people are looking at the building option hence the increased enquiry for land. Birdwood Estate is now starting to come into its own as the only other land subdivisions in Massey are sold out. With a range of sites from 450sm to 4000sm Birdwood is a unique offering in today’s improving market. Four large brand building companies have been engaged along with specialist new property real estate company KEY2 to put together full turn key house and land packages for purchasers.”
