Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections
G.J. Gardner
in the Selwyn District
Meandering roads and green spaces characterise Wilfield,
a subdivision in West Melton. With the popularity of residential
properties situated West of Christchurch, and the progress being
made on the Southern motorway, many families are making
West Melton their home.
G.J. Gardner Homes’ show home in
Wilfield is at 14 Kingsdowne Drive. This
295m2 home is a great illustration of the
exceptional design and build quality G.J.
Gardner Homes is known for.
Sunny, bright open plan with defined
dining and family areas, made more
intimate with a boxed ceiling, these are
separated from the lounge by double
sliders that open for entertaining.
The kitchen has ample bench space, an
island sink, and a generous walk-in pantry
with scullery. A long low window offers
a view of the yard and there is access to
a sheltered deck, perfect for breakfast or
coffee.
A triple car garage includes the laundry
and a guest toilet with wash basin.
Four double bedrooms plus a study
nook make up the Northeast wing of this
expansive home. The master bedroom
has a spacious walk-in wardrobe and a
fully tiled ensuite and shower. The main
bathroom also features a tiled shower and
a bath. The family toilet also has its own
wash basin.
Outdoor living is catered for with a
large, hardwood deck at the front of the
house. A cedar-lined portico gives the
home both a strong presence and great
street appeal. Sliding doors from the living
area and the master bedroom give access
to the deck and look towards the snowcapped
Southern Alps.
Storage is a feature in this home. Full
height cupboards in the laundry and hall;
three of the four bedrooms have walk-in
wardrobes; and there is attic storage above
the garage.
This outstanding show home is an
excellent example of G.J. Gardner’s
craftsmanship and quality. It is a must
for viewing. It is at 14 Kingsdowne
Drive, West Melton, and is open
Wednesday to Sunday from 12 til 4pm.
