Lansdowne Park
Clients | Lansdowne Park Development Limited |
Job | Lansdowne Park Lifestyle Community, Masterton |
Short Description | Design house layouts and all services for a lifestyle community. |
Status | Stage 1 - Construction, Stage 2 & 3 - Planning |
Detail | The client had a concept that Tomlinson & Carruthers extended & implemented to a fully designed lifestyle development.
The location of Lansdowne Park on a plateau with expansive views of the Tararuas and close to the local golf course was a desirable location for a lifestyle community targeted at the 50 year plus market. The design philosophy Tomlinson & Carruthers applied for the site was a close community with short walking distances to community facilities whilst maintaining views of the ranges and privacy. The team also designed a beautiful living environment taking advantage of the contours to fuse storm water to feed two landscaped lakes and minimizing erosion through the laying of walkways throughout the site. The overall layout also minimized the amount of materials used for services such as roading, sewerage, electricity and phone. The roading layout and contours of the site allowed for the installation of an inconspicuous security system.

Detail | Tomlinson & Carruthers have had a long standing relationship with the Masterton Golf Club on the hill at Lansdowne. When the Board of the Masterton Golf Club approached Tomlinson & Carruthers for ideas to progress the club the team were happy to offer their consultancy services on a pro bono basis.
The Club owns an envious property portfolio in an urban zoned area with 360 views of the Ruamahanga River valley and the Tararuas. An initial assessment and feasibility was presented to first the Board, then Committees and then all the members recommending an expanded course and new clubhouse funded by residential development along the urban road frontage. Sir Bob Charles then assessed the site and completed the first design to improve the course. Tomlinson & Carruthers have completed a topographical survey of the site and will present a detailed feasibility to the Board for their consideration. Our team is enthusiastic about the future of the club and look forward to being there at Sir Bob Charles' tee-off.
