Neighbourhood Appeal
Nestled in Timberlea’s peaceful enclave, this brand-new 2025-built SMART flat is a contemporary jewel among character-rich surroundings. While the immediate street has charming mid-century homes from the 1970s, our property quietly stands apart—with sophisticated modernity and seamless design.

• Backed by modern neighbours: At the rear, contemporary homes (built in the 2000s+) complement our property, ensuring the area reflects the quiet suburban evolution of Timberlea’s upper sections.
• Plateau-side access with city connectivity: Located atop the Eastern Hutt Valley Hills, Timberlea enjoys elevated views and is just a short drive from both local shops in Brown Owl and Upper Hutt’s vibrant centre. Accessible via Norana Road from SH2.
