Banbury Park is conveniently located in Halswell, Christchurch. It is an architecturally designed retirement village, specifically planned to resemble an upmarket residential subdivision.


Halswell is legendary for having fabulous green spaces, history and fantastic dining and shopping options.


There are no buildings over two storeys in height providing a distinctly non-institutional appearance. The houses are all stand-alone with a good mix of sizes and designs.
