Apartment zoning goes live

A residential site that is currently for sale next to Whangaparaoa College comes complete with concept plans for an apartment and retail block.

Currently there are two houses on the 2208sqm site, at 694 and 696 Whangaparaoa Road, but Real Estate agents Barfoot & Thompson are marketing it as a rare development opportunity.

The land is zoned for Terraced Housing & Apartments and the concept plans provided show the possibility of building a block of 49 apartments and three retail stores.
