About Townsend Fields
Townsend Fields presents a living space that enhances your outdoor experience with open countryside. Surrounded by recreational reserves, waterways, native planting and recreational walkways and paths, Townsend Fields is a dynamic subdivision creatively designed and located at the end of Townsend Road in Rangiora. Simply put, it’s the town’s newest, eco-friendly location to call home.
The land being developed was once a forest with waterways, before it was farmed for many years. The current land owners wanted minimal disturbance to the natural amenity of the land, therefore are passionately ensuring the area retains its natural beauty while subsequently creating a subdivision where home-owners can build to their specific needs. The design of Townsend Fields incorporates recreational walkways and paths, multi-level ponds, rock weir energy disipators and the planting of over 4000 native plants.
Townsend Fields foremost aim is to ensure their design preserved its natural beauty. This secured the developers with a place as a finalist in the ‘Environmental Step Change Award’ in the 2018 Enterprise North Canterbury Business Awards – a huge and notable achievement to acknowledge the significant efforts the developers have made to ensure Townsend Fields is created with preserving nature in mind.
