Step insine our newest Beachgrove Showhome in Kaiapoi. Explore Milldale plan – a smart, single-level home that makes clever use of 135 square metres. With three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a single garage, it's practical, easy to live in, and an ideal fit for first home buyers, downsizers and investors.

From the street, crisp weatherboard cladding, black joinery and a dark front door give the home a sharp, contemporary look. Inside, the open plan kitchen, dining and living area is the heart of the home, with an island bench under pendant lighting, stone benchtops and quality Smeg appliances. The master bedroom has its own ensuite, the main bathroom features matte black tapware, a wall-hung timber-look vanity and a bath. 

The setting is a big part of the appeal. Beachgrove's established green spaces and reserves give it a leafy, country feel. Central Kaiapoi is just 900 metres away, and the motorway puts Christchurch within a 15-minute drive. Young families are well catered for too - the Active Explorers childcare centre is onsite, and Kaiapoi North School sits on the development's western boundary, a quick walk through the back gate.

Whether it's your first step onto the ladder, a simpler next chapter, or a solid addition to the portfolio, the Beachgrove Showhome is well worth a visit.
