The Totara Close subdivision incorporates nine sections of 1000sq m and two of 2000sq m, all of which have either Taieri River or combined ocean and river views, and include regenerated native bush.
Dunedin businessman Kim Rapley, a co-director of Rappat Investments Ltd, has spent the past 21 months removing about 400 tonnes of pines from the land, constructing a private road which will be concreted and asphalted, and putting in power and telecommunication services.
"The pines were removed to help regeneration of the native bush. People will be able to build around the native trees," Mr Rapley said when contacted.
