Millbrook’s largest ever show home opens

The grandest and most luxurious show home ever built by the developers of Queenstown’s Millbrook Resort has opened its doors.

Residences on Dalgleish is a collection of five magnificent homes designed by awardwinning Mason & Wales Architects, fronting the 4 th and overlooking the 7 th fairways of the Coronet Nine, bathed in year-round sunshine and with outstanding mountain views.

The new 405sqm show home is on the market for $5.765 million — fully furnished. Spread over four distinct pavilions, clad in different yet complementary materials including schist stone, glass, timber, steel and slate, the Stirling show home is indeed impressive.

Steel and glass entry doors open up to a spacious entry lobby where a curved stone wall bathed in uplights connects living and sleeping pavilions. A large wine room has pride of place, and the entrance to the living area is flanked by a sumptuously-decorated semicircular media room to one side and an office with built in desk, ultra-fast broadband and expansive storage opposite. The living pavilion is a symphony of light and height, a contemporary interpretation of a Central Otago barn with rich stained soaring cedar ceilings, steel feature trusses and plaster finished walls.

A striking kitchen and scullery with integrated appliances, occupies the heart of the home, while a steel feature fireplace invites owners and guests to sit back and relax.

With different bedding configurations available, the show home can comfortably sleep up to eight people, all on one level.

Reliability, Workmanship and Product Guaranteed!

RELM Quantity Surveyors

With so much at stake, so many choices, decisions, legislations… it makes sense to start with us.

At RELM Quantity Surveyors we offer more than a per-square-metre rate. A lot of factors affect the pricing of your construction project starting from foundations, local government rules, geographic areas, types of finishes, and style of house to name a few.

We break your building components down and measure using our database of costings to calculate an estimated total cost. In some instances, we can also shop around for prices.

With a RELM Quantity Surveyors’ estimate in hand, you can commit to working drawings with confidence or tender your job knowing everyone is pricing the same thing, allowing the same standard of finish and products in your build.

Ask about our “Concept to Tender” package, where we can estimate costs at the early stages of design, and give you pricing updates as your plan develops to help you stay on track and make your build more efficient.

Once you are ready, we finalise detailed schedules ready for tender. At RELM Quantity Surveyors our team of experienced quantity surveyors work for you, preparing detailed schedules ready for you to compile your tenders, allowing you to commit your time to running current projects.

We work closely with people who design and construct, as well as those in the retail supply chain allowing our team of quantity surveyors to develop a strong understanding of construction materials, techniques and costs.

We can suggest innovative options, so your construction project meets expectations and budgets.

At RELM Quantity Surveyors we are seeing a shift in the market to more architectural styling and innovative new products. These all add to the complexity of the build, which require a greater understanding of materials and labour to provide accurate estimates.

With recent natural events having a huge impact on structural design a wide range of solutions have been introduced. A lot these solutions are complex and require in depth scheduling to ensure all materials and labours are included in your tender price.

In the past the role of the quantity surveyor in residential construction has been limited. However, with the changes in regulations, construction methods, materials and innovation in design, an understanding of costs earlier is more important than ever before.

RELM Quantity Surveyors can offer conceptual pricing to help you understand you budget earlier on, through to full schedule to enable contractors to accurately price your project.

Working with RELM Quantity Surveyors you are receiving an impartial view of materials and overall costs to help your decisions process from early concept through to full consent drawings.
