Central Otago’s newest property developer Ram Projects is on a mission to build outstanding properties for investment in the region.

Founders Nick and Laura Wright originate from London and have called New Zealand home for the last 15 years. 

“During this time we have built a solid construction business, The Wright Build, from our sound experience in the building industry teamed with years of working in customer service, hospitality, planning and design,” says Laura.

“We are extremely proud of the home we designed and built in Queensberry in 2020 that was a labour of love and inspired by the outstanding natural landscape. The property incorporated natural building materials, shapes and textures with the finished result spectacular inside and out encapsulating the quintessential vibe of this region. Nick has an extensive catalogue of high-end and complex builds under his belt. His knowledge of the industry is exceptional and the business is a success because he oversees every single detail and pours his heart into every aspect.”

Ram Projects recently completed several high-quality builds at Wooing Tree Estate in Cromwell.

“We handpicked the sections and built two stunning residential townhouses with all the amenities one requires for the wonderful Central Otago lifestyle. Our favourite detail of these homes is the alfresco space just outside the kitchen overlooking the yard and Wooing Tree Park where the namesake 100-year-old tree is located.”

The company is still in its prime and Nick and Laura are proud of their accomplishments so far. 

“ The Wright Build and Ram Projects are driven by our hunger and tenacity to produce excellent products for the marketplace,” says Laura. “We want our projects to appeal to everybody, to be cool and interesting but also pack the goods to back it up. Our core values guide our work and we operate with integrity all the way.”

Future Proofing Property

As a property development company with a difference Ram Projects have several exciting projects in the pipeline for 2025.

“We have a plot of land in Shannon Farm coming to title this August.” says co-owner Laura Wright.  “The design concepts currently underway are for a large scale rustic farm-style home with an indoor spa retreat as a special feature. This property is a great opportunity to flex our design muscles and create something outstanding. We expect it to hit the market mid 2026 but early enquiries are welcome.”

“We have also just secured some land in Clyde to develop a stylish multi-density block of European chalet style apartments that will nestle into the nearby rugged hills. This is an extremely exciting project and quite unique for the little town creating appealing lifestyle options especially with the new bike trails continuously developing.”

Laura says Ram Projects is focused on a big future ahead.

“ Our point of difference is that we care. It is essential to us that we produce quality properties that are not only beautiful but future proofed. Each project is a new canvas to create something wonderful that will bring comfort, function and joy to owners for years to come.”
