An exceptional riverfront development opportunity.

Held in the same ownership for approximately 30 years, 74 Oxford Terrace represents one of Christchurch’s most compelling city development opportunities. Occupying a premium riverfront position, this substantial 822 sqm freehold site combines scale, profile, and an enviable central location within one of the city’s most sought-after precincts.

With approximately 16 metres of frontage to Oxford Terrace, the property enjoys outstanding street presence overlooking the Avon River, offering the rare opportunity to create a landmark development in the heart of the CBD.

Positioned moments from Christchurch’s most significant commercial and lifestyle destinations including Riverside Market, Christchurch Hospital, the Justice Precinct, Cashel Mall, and the city’s thriving hospitality and retail precincts, the site benefits from exceptional connectivity and enduring occupier appeal.

Zoned City Centre Zone, the property provides flexibility for a diverse range of future uses, including premium residential, hospitality, office, mixed-use, or hotel and visitor accommodation developments (subject to the necessary consents). The combination of riverfront amenity, city convenience, and favourable zoning creates an outstanding platform for developers, investors, and land bankers seeking to capitalise on Christchurch’s continuing growth and regeneration.

Opportunities to secure freehold riverfront land of this calibre are exceptionally rare.

With its blue-chip location, development potential, and tightly held ownership history, 74 Oxford Terrace offers the chance to deliver a truly iconic project in one of New Zealand’s fastest-evolving CBDs.
