A tick of green approval: Nest Residential
When choosing a townhouse, the smart money lands on a new build, where the performance is as attractive as the modern clean lines. Inbuilt durability is a must for the discerning buyer, ensuring a warm, dry home for generations to come.
Developing good-looking, energy-efficient, soundproof townhouses at an affordable price is the central objective of Nest Residential.
Owners Simon Fenwick and Mark Teesdale have always focused on quality rather than quantity. “New Zealand is 10 years behind OECD standards in home building, and we are passionate about contributing high-quality housing that takes us to where we need to be,” says Simon. 
“Every Nest Residential home has upgraded insulation as its baseline.” The green initiatives inherent in the team’s new builds have inspired confidence from the financing perspective, with $80k available at a 1% interest rate.
Security is featured, with fencing and automatic gates coming as standard. The large single garages have the capacity for a car, and space for bikes and other leisure equipment. “Each garage is fitted with a 16A connection for electric car charging, and a ply wall which makes fitting shelves hooks and tools a breeze,” says Simon.
New build projects are under construction lakeside in Pegasus, Woolston, and Addington. “We have two remaining homes in Pegasus,” he adds. “In Woolston, we have seven townhouses that will be complete by the end of 2025, and 12 townhouses in Addington will be ready for occupation early in 2026.”
Accolades from those already in a Nest home are easy to come by, with one lucky owner saying “I love my house. I think every day how lucky I am to live here. Thank you very much Simon and Mark, you are doing good work.”
