The Site
Located at 62 - 64 Amberley Beach Roach, meticulous master-planning and engineering ensures that The Clearing provides a shared connected environment, with community access to public open spaces, highly planted wetlands and a full community playground proposed for Stage 4 of the development. Connection to the wider Amberley community, which has so much to offer was a priority in planning. The site will eventually have 400 sections when complete, 123 of which are in phase 1 (stages 1,2 and 3) all within a master-planned and considered community setting.
Site position in context of town:
The Clearing is positioned approximately 500m south of Amberley township and 43km north of Christchurch CBD. It forms a part of the large rural block which is located off Amberley Beach Road. The area is well situated to link to wider Amberley residential, retail, commercial and to the beach/coastal areas to the west.
