A unique high country setting
Merino Downs presents a rare opportunity to secure a place in one of New Zealand’s most captivating high-country settings—where space, tranquillity, and lifestyle come together in perfect balance with modern convenience.
Twizel, located on State Highway 8 between Christchurch and Queenstown, has transformed from a hidden gem into one of New Zealand’s fastest-growing and most desirable lifestyle destinations. Despite this growth, it has retained its welcoming, close-knit community spirit. Residents enjoy access to quality schooling, healthcare services, boutique retail, and a vibrant café and dining scene—offering both comfort and connection in an extraordinary natural environment.
Located within Twizel, Merino Downs enjoys the benefits of township proximity while offering a peaceful, semi-rural setting that reflects the true character of New Zealand’s high country. Whether you are seeking a permanent residence, a lock-and-leave holiday retreat, or a high-performing investment, Merino Downs delivers exceptional versatility. With accommodation in Twizel frequently in short supply and demand continuing to strengthen, the subdivision represents an outstanding opportunity for both lifestyle and long-term financial return.
Merino Downs balances a sense of community with meaningful space between neighbours. With a minimum lot size of 5,000m² and a 10m setback requirement, each home enjoys a comfortable level of seclusion. The gentle south-to-north slope maximises sun and outlook, delivering sweeping north-facing mountain views and open vistas across the working Ben Ohau Station.
