Savills, as sole agent, is proud to present one of Wanaka’s most strategic commercial development opportunities, positioned within the rapidly evolving Three Parks precinct adjacent to the Wānaka Health Precinct.
Wanaka is at the centre of a major shift in healthcare delivery. The new Central Lakes Clinical Services Plan released by Health Minister Simeon Brown identifies Central Lakes as one of the most under-served regions in New Zealand. 70% of New Zealanders who live over two hours' drive from a comprehensive base hospital live in the Central Lakes region and 80% of healthcare trips outside the region are to access services that New Zealanders in other similar sized populations can access locally.
This is one of New Zealand’s fastest growing regions where the local council is projecting 51% population growth by 2043, coupled with significant existing tourist demand that exceeds 55,000 each day.
The demand signals for healthcare services now and into the future could not be clearer.
Positioned to Capture Government-Led Growth
The adjoining sites at 16, 18 and 20 Sir Tim Wallis Drive sit directly next to the Wānaka Health Precinct and benefit from a high-profile corner position with exposure to the main arterial route.
Available individually or together, these sites offer a rare opportunity to secure freehold land in immediate proximity to a major healthcare hub, ideally suited to medical, healthcare, and commercial development.
Key Advantages
- Freehold land adjacent to a leasehold-only Health Precinct
- Flexibility to design purpose-built healthcare or commercial facilities
- Prominent corner position with four frontages
- 17 exclusive-use car parks plus future parking nearby
- Existing resource consents, including 19.5m height limit
- Located in one of New Zealand’s fastest-growing regions
Investment in the health services of Central Lakes region has not kept pace with rapid population growth and community need, the government's commitment to expanding local services is expected to drive significant demand in this location.
Opportunities of this scale and positioning, aligned with confirmed government direction, are exceptionally limited.
