The Cameron Road Student Accommodation project reflects a continuation of Reidy & Co and Haydn & Rollett’s long-standing track record in delivering purpose-built student accommodation, drawing on over 15 years of experience developed through major schemes in Auckland.

Located adjacent to the University of Waikato’s Selwyn Street campus, the project has been strategically positioned to support the University’s expansion in Tauranga and to help establish a connected accommodation precinct within the CBD. Recognising the growing demand for high-quality student accommodation, the development team worked closely with the University to structure and secure a long-term lease, providing certainty of income and aligning the asset with the University’s operational needs.

The project is being delivered as a joint venture between Haydn & Rollett, Reidy & Co and Ergon Properties, with full end-to-end management of the development process—from site acquisition and feasibility through to design coordination, procurement, and delivery. 
 

Fosters Construction has been engaged under a design and build model, ensuring programme and cost certainty, while Ergon Properties will retain the asset as long-term owner.

The building comprises six levels of accommodation above ground, delivering 228 single-occupancy studio apartments designed to meet contemporary student expectations. A strong focus has been placed on creating a balanced living environment, with shared kitchen and dining facilities, communal living and entertainment spaces, study areas, laundry, and staff facilities located at ground level.

This project demonstrates a disciplined development approach, combining deep sector experience, strong institutional  relationships, and integrated delivery capability to create a high-quality, future-focused student accommodation asset for the University of Waikato.
