First release coming early 2027 - register now to be the first to know!
LOCATION
State Highway 29, Tauriko, Tauranga
PROJECT UPDATE
Earthworks underway

You’ll find Riverside where the banks of the Wairoa River meet the rolling Tauriko hills. It’s a location that answers the usual compromise between green space and city convenience. Here, you simply have both.

Thoughtfully master-planned to follow the natural flow of river and land, Riverside seamlessly connects your home to the awa, creating a lifestyle that blends nature with modern living.

Generous spaces for connection abound, with a network of walkways, parks, and reserves designed to welcome every generation. Just moments from the city and the Bay’s most stunning beaches, Riverside embodies the very best of Bay of Plenty living.

The Location

Tauriko and the wider Western Bay of Plenty are leading Tauranga’s next chapter, backed by major infrastructure investment and a shared vision for smart, connected growth.

Riverside is seamlessly integrated into these plans, with upgraded highways, transport links, community facilities and green corridors all designed to connect you to the wider region and bring you home with ease.

Love life at Riverside.

Location is everything, and Riverside’s spot is hard to beat. Within the neighbourhood, you’ll have everyday essentials close by, with shops and key amenities arriving in future stages. The community itself is designed for connection and discovery, an inviting network of pathways that weave through nature, reserves, playgrounds, and hidden pockets for play and exploration.

And beyond your doorstep, everything’s close at hand. Tauranga Crossing, Tauriko Business Estate, and the city centre are all just a short drive away, putting work, shopping, and entertainment within easy reach.

  • Shops and essential amenities planned for future stage.
  • Open Spaces for activities, picnics, and enjoying fresh air.
  • Playground for kids, offering a safe and fun space to play.
  • Public Transport Links
  • Reserve offering a quiet place to unwind and enjoy nature.
  • Scenic Views to soak in, ever-changing with the seasons.
  • Wetland Reserve

Live the good life

From the beautifully designed neighbourhood to its prime location in thriving Tauriko, Riverside offers so much to love.

Modern homes, green spaces, and community amenities are all connected by safe streets and walkways. The great outdoors are on your doorstep, shops and eateries are just moments away, and employment opportunities abound.
