About the project

Bombay Terraces is an excellent example of multi-unit housing located in the heart of Khandallah, Wellington. Consisting of seventeen contemporary residences, in six appropriately scaled buildings that fit comfortably within their surrounding context, they are all orientated to the north for excellent sun and have extensive views over Khandallah, Ngaio, and the distant hills and harbour.

The external cladding comprises dark-coloured flat profiled metal on the roofing and exterior side walls, complemented with light or dark stained cedar weatherboards, giving each residence an individual identity and providing a contemporary and engaging appearance.

Our approach

A key team of personnel guided this project from start to finish, managing the restricted site access and close proximity to neighbouring homes with a high level of community engagement.

Construction of this residential project was held to a high standard with designs including higher ceiling height, open oak staircases, and granite benchtops—the quality of which was maintained through construction.

The project was delivered on time and on budget with no health and safety incidents, thanks to the diligence of the team.
