A Master‑Planned Township
Paerata Rise spans over 300 ha and will ultimately include around 4,500–5,000 homes – combined with terraced houses, duplexes, apartments, and standalone family homes.
Semi‑Rural, Yet Connected
Located just 40 minutes south of Auckland CBD, and only a 10-minute drive to Pukekohe and Karaka, you get country-style living with easy city access.
Community Hub and Events
A central community hub overlooking the park is planned to host farmers’ markets, artisan dining, boutique retail, cultural venues and weekend events – plus community-led programs and seasonal festivities.
Strong Sense of Community
Designed to be walkable and sociable, Paerata Rise fosters real neighbourly connections, laid-back streets, organised community events and exercise classes.
Education for All Ages
Quality learning options abound: BestStart early learning opened in 2020, Paerata Primary School was relocated into the development in 2021, along with the nearby Pukekohe High and Wesley College, plus St Ignatius Catholic College and a yet-to-be-finalised state secondary school.
Green Spaces & Recreation
Over 5 ha of parks and reserves, adventure playgrounds (water play included), walking and cycling trails, dog parks, amphitheatre, mountain biking and sports facilities.
Local Café Culture
Pop-in cafés like Rise ’n Shine overlook playgrounds and rolling hills.
Transport and Easy Commuting
A new train station at Paerātā (slated for 2026) will connect to Auckland’s Southern Line. Bus services and highways like SH1 are also close by.
Diverse Housing Options
From downsizer duplexes (125–135 m², one-storey, 3-bed) to larger family homes—all built by local partner builders, offering various lot sizes (350–650 m²) and styles.
Built on Cultural and Philanthropic Foundations
Developed by the Wesley College Trust and Grafton Downs, profits from Paerata Rise are reinvested in community and school initiatives. Road names carry te reo heritage, reflecting local Māori and Methodist history.
