The Motatapu Station development is subject to 17 conditions, including the immediate replacement of any dying plant or tree, a water supply for fire-fighting purposes and an agreement to plant the same grasses as those growing on surrounding land.The consent allows Twain to build a one-level house, two guest cottages, a garage and ancillary structures.
Twain, also known as Eileen Lange, and her husband, Robert "Mutt" Lange, had applied through their company Soho Properties.
They bought 24,731ha of Crown pastoral leasehold farm land between Wanaka and Arrowtown for about $21.4 million last year. They want to build a diamond-shaped residential complex on top of a ridge on the southern side of a knoll in the Motatapu Valley, about 1.4km from the existing homestead.
