Our Residential Projects

Lakeside

Te Kauwhata

Two modern houses with black and white exteriors, large windows, and small front yards, set against a blue sky with scattered clouds in the background.

Lakeside in Te Kauwhata has 75 hectares of dedicated reserve and wetlands, as well as 6km’s of walking and cycling trails. Ample room to roam with serene views of Lake Waikare.

It is brilliantly located, just a short stroll to Te Kauwhata’s charming main street. Better roads and ease of motorway access have also brought Lakeside within easy reach of Auckland and Hamilton, in 35 minutes!

Along with Te Kauwhata’s main street, Lakeside also offers it’s own village centre, including a great playground, cafe, childcare centre, barber, general store, and more. There’s also a new primary school coming.

Over the next eight years, Lakeside Development will create a new neighbourhood of 1,650 high-quality homes on the edge of Lake Waikare.
