Peninsula Hill is a premium residential subdivision located on Queenstown’s Kelvin Peninsula. It is being developed as a staged subdivision. There is also a local shopping zone in the development.

The developer is Peninsula Hill Limited – a family-owned entity. The Mee family have been farming this land since the 1960s.

Sections in the Kārearea stage range between 1,041sqm and 3,694sqm.

Titles are estimated to be issued for the Kārearea sections May 2024. Settlement will be 10 working days following the issue of titles.

A 10% deposit is payable on satisfaction of any purchaser due diligence conditions and the balance of the purchase price will be payable on settlement when titles are issued.

All properties at Peninsula Hill will be freehold (fee simple) titles. Owners are responsible for 100% of the costs associated with their own property. The balance of open space land and the commercial area is, or will be, owned by the Developer. The common land and infrastructure (private roads, grass verges, infrastructure and parts of expansive grounds) is, or will be, owned by the Peninsula Hill Residents and Owners Association Incorporated (the Society).

A Design Review Board will be established as a sub-committee of the Society. The developer will prepare design guidelines which will apply to all properties at Peninsula Hill. The guidelines are designed to ensure a consistent high-quality level of amenity over the development, maintaining the value and quality of the neighbourhood. This will be achieved by way of both landscape and architectural controls, with opportunity for individual creativity still in place. One of the principal goals of the guidelines will be ensuring that the wider lake and mountain views of all lot owners will be maintained by way of floor level and height controls on each lot and the development levels have been designed to achieve this.
