Tui Glen Road, Birkenhead, Auckland

Be the first to own a freehold home in what is aiming to be New Zealand's most sustainable standalone housing development.

Tui Glen is a magical site at the edge of Kauri Glen Reserve and these bespoke homes will be an absolute sanctuary for you and your family. Once you arrive home down the driveway, you are nestled in the canopy of native bush, looking out over ancient Totara, nikau, and puriri.

Tui Glen will have four standalone freehold, three-bedroom, two-bathroom homes designed by Ahha Architects. Split-level floor plans with outdoor courtyards include light-filled kitchen and dining areas, as well as a sunken lounge with views through the tree canopy.

With regenerative principles at the forefront of the development, Tui Glen is designed to tread lightly on the ecology it inhabits and to continue to have a positive impact, long after the last nail goes in.

The four homes have a large shared area dedicated to the conservation and enjoyment of the protected native bush. There are also edible garden areas, composting, and EV vehicle charging stations.

The new housing organisation Good Good is building these homes using a negative operational energy, self-sufficient model. This New Zealand company takes a different approach to property development, prioritising people's well-being and regenerating the planet at the same time.

A greywater recycling system and 13,000-litre tanks under each house harvest rainwater will provide the water supply. We will harness solar power through panels on the roofs and store it in batteries for the power supply. These systems, combined with a passive house high-performance facade, efficient fittings, and appliances, mean that the homes are projected to have zero yearly operating costs.

If you have been dreaming of a better more harmonious way of life where you can be a stone's throw from the CBD yet your children can explore and grow surrounded by nature, then this is your opportunity to attain an exclusive piece of paradise.
