What is Whare Ora?

Whare Ora is a community-driven project aimed at offering healthy, affordable, and accessible housing solutions to local residents in Te Tairawhiti.

Each whare has been created to ensure a comfortable living environment for its residents. They were also designed to comply with and surpass the insulation R rating requirements in November (2022). With a strong focus on quality these homes come fully insulated, boasting double-glazed aluminium windows, smoke alarms, and carpeted interiors.

Off-grid solar options are available at an additional cost, as are the white interiors seen in some of the photos.

Please see above for listings of the whare we offer, base prices and details. For those interested in purchasing, please complete the form provided within each respective model's page.
