Home Show 2026 Promotion

Our Home Show offer covers four plans:
‍
- Te Waihou
- Tōtara
- Marlborough Sounds Dual Key
- Pelorus River
‍
Each is available in two specification ranges, Kickstarter and Summit.
The construction is the same in both.
What changes is the inclusions: the fittings, finishes and fixtures inside your home.
The build price is fixed from the foundation up. The work needed to connect your home to your land is
priced separately for your site, once we’ve assessed it.
Below is exactly what sits inside the build price, what sits outside it, and the terms of the offer.
‍

be provisional sums until the site investigation is done, and we’ll tell you plainly which ones.
We have worked examples of site costs on real residential and rural sites, so you can see how they add
up. Ask our team and we’ll take you through them.
