Detail

Set for completion in early 2025, Five Mile Villas is a premium residential development in Frankton delivering 226 standalone, freehold homes. These architecturally designed villas are tailored to meet a diverse market—first home buyers, seasonal lifestyle seekers, and companies needing high-quality staff accommodation.

Collaborating with Designgroup Stapleton Elliott, the project blends modern New Zealand design with practical, low-maintenance living. Each home is built to a high specification, backed by the security of freehold titles and positioned in a fast-growing, well-connected part of Queenstown. It’s an elevated living experience—practical, elegant, and future-ready.
