Living Well apartments – available now!

The JASMAX difference

Jasmax is a leading New Zealand group of architects who share our values and have taken the opportunity to create one of the country’s best retirement villages here in Christchurch. There is no other community or building like this. It is truly unique for the city of Christchurch and for New Zealand.

Space to live well!

If you’re looking for personal space, each apartment will provide outlooks over 900 sqm of parkland, all designed to be inter-connected by beautiful timber decking and walkways around the garden.

Common areas offer a café, bar, dining area, communal lounge, gas fire, creative room for crafts and an entertaining lounge and projector screen. Our library with computers and broadband is also available for everyone.

We’ll host market days on the lawn amongst our seasonal gardens and fruit trees. Our outdoor entertaining area has a built-in BBQ and pizza oven, a fireplace, blokes’ shed, bowling green and raised garden beds.

The building

Cross laminated timber

The natural characteristics of cross laminated timber have provided us with a building with impressive seismic integrity and a superior earthquake rating for safety. Combined with innovative inter-locking technology, this system meets and exceeds the most demanding earthquake and seismic design requirements. For the people of Christchurch, this provides greater peace of mind, knowing these homes have the very best earthquake engineering built in, right from the start.

Thermal insulation

The exterior of the building is clad in natural Accoya timber and roofed with King Span roofing. The walls, ceiling and roof surfaces are moisture membrane sealed and insulated for sound and warmth. All building materials have been carefully sourced and integrated into the design for their unique properties, providing warm, airy and light environments.

Solar energy

Energy requirements for the main building complex will be supported by roof mounted solar panels generating up to 100kW of power. Together with the built-in thermal properties of the building, we expect energy bills to be very low.

Interiors

Floor to ceiling doors and tall windows flood our modern apartments with light and air. Living spaces are enhanced with cavity slider doors, intelligent storage systems and locally sourced natural wool carpets for warmth and comfort. Fully tiled flat floor bathrooms add both luxury and safety to all wet areas. Interior spaces are naturally insulated and energy efficient and require very little extra heating.
