Willowridge Developments Ltd

In 1993 Willowridge Developments Ltd was formed by Allan and Elizabeth Dippie. Its first project was Meadowstone - a comprehensive residential development of nearly 400 sections on an extraordinary site in inner Wanaka. Originally this land was part of the Sargood's historic Wanaka Station property, farmed by the same family since the early 1900s.

Through Meadowstone, Willowridge introduced new standards of residential subdivision to Wanaka and thus was immediately successful with the first two stages sold out within days. Meadowstone has always been one of Wanaka's most desirable areas with both sections and homes throughout all stages continually sought after. Testimony to this is the number of Wanaka local residents who have purchased and moved to Meadowstone.

Willowridge also specialises in other areas of Central Otago . Printers Bay in Cromwell saw many satisfied buyers who were also well rewarded by their investments.

Willowridge has also developed Sunderland Estate in the historic township of Clyde. Interest has been high in this superb location because it's the last available residential area in this small and intimate township.The last sections in the final stage of Sunderland Estate are presently available for sale.

The latest major residential project is Timsfield at Lake Hawea. Construction of stages one, two and three are complete and sections are selling well.

Timsfield has been designed to be a high quality residential subdivision along a traditional village township theme. There are wide, safe well lit tree lined streets and avenues with cobblestone footpaths. Timsfield offers the complete lifestyle ……. Lake, mountains, rivers, & walks…nature’s own. It is a superb residential development in a wonderful community & family environment. Willowridge has also developed the Kiwi 1st Home Ownership Option designed to assist address affordable housing issues in the area.

The company continues to work closely with local councils in order to undertake developments that both meet the needs of the local community and environment. Because of this approach and because Willowridge has made a long term commitment to Central Otago, Willowridge continues to grow in statute as one of Central Otago's prominent property development companies.

Willowridge's latest project is a superb residential development in Wanaka West Meadows.

Construction stages one and two are complete and these titled, fully serviced sections are selling now. The third stage of West Meadows is under construction and includes the very exclusive Ruby Ridge sections which are said to be 'Some of the Best in Wanaka'.

Willowridge's Three Parks Development has been identified as the location for future growth of the Wanaka Township and will accommodate another commercial area for larger bulk retailers along with a mix of residential, tourism and recreational facilities.
