Project overview

Maea Fields is a master planned community with the first phase to deliver 300 new sections. Veros was appointed as development manager in early 2020 to lead the delivery of Maea Fields. Over the next five years, Matamata’s population is expected to grow by more than 2,800 people. To make room for that growth, the vision is to sustainably extend Matamata to the east and bring together a connected community.

Further housing, neighbourhood parks, an employment zone, and a village heart where the community can stay connected are all part of the master plan. There will be connections to the town centre, arterial routes, recreational activities, and schools, and the area will have pedestrian-friendly streets and cycle trails.

The name Maea Fields is drawn from the historical agricultural use of the site as well as the presence of the Kaimai Ranges to the east, with Maea meaning “to emerge, arise, appear, become visible, come into view, come up, surface” in te reo.

Maea Fields aims to set a benchmark for a new type of residential development in Matamata.

Project outcomes

This project will deliver approximately 300 sections across three stages and will provide for much-needed urban growth within Matamata over the next eight years. More importantly, the subdivision will deliver a range of housing products and section sizes, ensuring a wide variety of housing options are available.

Our team is responsible for the development of the master plan and its delivery through to title.

Having been given the opportunity to lead the development of the master plan, our team has ensured the most effective and efficient use of the land with consideration of the characteristics of the site, infrastructure requirements, and residential market. Importantly, the master plan will deliver a unique and affordable market offering that will be critical during changing economic conditions.

The client has benefitted from the broad range of technical expertise our Development Management team has to offer. In particular, the depth of experience and understanding of our team has ensured the development of an innovative and efficient stormwater management solution to maintain a feasible and sustainable subdivision layout.

The development vision has been one of high quality which challenges the status quo of how and what has been delivered in the past.
