a CASHMERE HiSTORY

 the story of CASHMERE ESTATE

Just six kilometres from all the urban amenities and activities offered by Christchurch’s CBD, and everything in between, Cashmere Estate also has the benefit of the Christchurch Adventure Park as its rear neighbour, with numerous walking and bike paths leading you there from your doorstep in matter of minutes.

Steeped in history, the 150 hectare development is the last remnant of the original ‘Cashmere’ farm, named after India’s Kashmir, and originally the home Sir John Cracoft-Wilson, an Englishman born in colonial India. Now in its 6th and 7th stages on the Worsley Valley side, Cashmere Estate is a labour of passion undertaken by Hamish Wright through his development company Cashmere Land Developments Ltd.

Hamish is also spearheading civil construction through CCL Construction Contracting. “The land was bought from the McVicor family who had owned it since the 1970s and had envisioned the concept for the development, in conjunction with Christ College who also owned part of the land for close to 100 years,” says Hamish.

Cashmere Land Developments Ltd started the first stage in 2017 and has completed just over 200 sections over 6 stages to date. Hamish acknowledges that because of the valleys and steep contour the location has presented a challenging place to build civil construction wise, with many kilometres of retaining walls constructed to provide a good aspect for houses so that everyone gets a view.

Imagine designing a home around almost 270 degrees of uninterrupted views.

Positioned prominently on the corner of Stage 3A, Arrow House was designed to maximise light, openness and its connection to the surrounding wetlands and reserve. From the warm brick and cedar tones to the elegant architectural fins that create depth and privacy, every detail has been thoughtfully considered.

This is what makes Cashmere Estate different, homes designed to respond to the landscape, embrace the sun and feel completely unique to their setting.
