Greenfield Projects

Greenfield projects represent the purest expression of Terra Nova Create’s capability, shaping hospitality destinations from untouched land through rigorous planning, ecological intelligence, and commercial foresight. These projects begin long before architecture, with land selection, feasibility, zoning pathways and environmental logic guiding every decision.

Our greenfield developments balance ambition with restraint, ensuring that new hospitality assets are not imposed on the landscape, but emerge from it, economically viable, environmentally responsible, and operationally future-proof.

Greenfield projects demand more than design, they require restraint, technical intelligence and a deep respect for land, regulation and future operations. Terra Nova Create brings an integrated skill set that allows projects to move seamlessly from feasibility to delivery, ensuring that new hospitality destinations are commercially viable, environmentally grounded and built to endure.

Pearl Valley Hotel

Terra Nova Create played a strategic role in the development of Pearl Valley Hotel, guiding the transformation of raw land into a fully realised luxury hospitality destination within a prestigious golf estate. The project required careful integration of hospitality infrastructure into a sensitive landscape, balancing guest experience, estate living and long-term commercial sustainability.

The hotel was conceived as a cornerstone asset within the broader Pearl Valley estate, elevating the destination’s appeal to international leisure, golf tourism and corporate retreat markets.

St Francis Links

St Francis Links represents a large-scale greenfield development where Terra Nova Create contributed to the planning and positioning of hospitality components within a championship golf estate. Working from undeveloped land, the project required a clear understanding of coastal ecology, land use planning and the creation of a hospitality offering that complements both the golf experience and residential estate living.

The hospitality facilities were designed to serve members, visitors and event-driven tourism while reinforcing St Francis Bay as a lifestyle and leisure destination.
