Opportunity awaits!
Manu Park is a place to make memories that will last a lifetime. Set amongst protected native bush, the lifestyle here offers picturesque surroundings, wide-open spaces and connection to the abundant local flora and fauna.
Taking its name from the Maori word for bird, Manu Park sits on the doorstep of the Nga Manu nature reserve. A stone’s throw from Waikanae’s popular schools and local amenities, plus minutes from the beach and under an hour from Wellington. The vibrant café scene at Waikanae Beach will keep brunchers happy, plus the limitless options for bush walks, mountain bike rides and days out at the beach are ideal for those who crave the fresh air and adventurous pursuits.

Different this time was just how much Classic Builders kept us involved in the process
Matthew
Having previously built a home with a different company, what struck us most as being different this time was just how much Classic Builders kept us involved in the process. Whether it was helping us to pick out the various colours, fixtures and other features, or providing frank advice on potential addition, or just the regular updates on progress, we felt far more connected to the build process. The documentation package given to us upon settlement was also far more comprehensive, and included electronic versions of everything (including instructions and warranties for all the myriad components of the build).
The sales process was really supportive and informative.
Karl
Built 2 homes with Classic Builders Wgtn. Although I initially had lots of questions, the sales process was really supportive and informative...nothing was in the too hard basket (thankfully).
During the builds I had many on-site catch ups with the construction managers and occasionally with the builders, they all knew their stuff, were professional, polite and informative. The build quality is amazing, a number of our friends have commented just how good the quality is.
Although we built through winter, the second house was finished a month ahead of schedule!! This is a reflection of a well oiled machine supported by really good processes and tradies.
The Classic Builders team, particularly Brad, Teresa, Mark and Michelle were awesome, hard to believe we've gone from wet clay to 2 awesome homes, thanks again team!
Putting us into our brand new family home prior to the expected timeline
BOPTAKA
We went through Classic Builders to build a new place in Churton Park. Brad and Teresa were amazing across the whole process - making sure we had all the information available to make important decisions and offering suggestions and advice when we weren't sure.
For what could have been an extremely stressful time in our lives, the team at Classic really made it enjoyable - putting us into our brand new family home prior to the expected timeline - would recommend to anyone.
We were glad Classic was our partner.
Bunty
We were evaluating 2 separate builders and what tipped us towards Classic was how accomodating and flexible they worked with us through the design and contract process. Building a home isn't for the faint hearted, there is a lot that could go wrong but we were glad Classic was our partner, we moved into a house that was just how we had imagined, on time and on budget. If we build again, it would be with Classic Builders.
