ARC: Shared Housing For Women

Welcome to the ARC, a modern, warm, shared housing community designed for women who seek stability, connection, and a sense of belonging. Just as Noah’s Ark provided security and shelter, the ARC stands as a haven for those navigating life’s challenges — ensuring that no one is left behind..

A Home Built for Community and Comfort. Located in the very heart of Rangiora, the ARC offers more than just housing—it provides a place where individuals can connect, and thrive together. This long-term housing option is designed for those who value both community and personal space, featuring three separate houses, each with its own living, dining, and kitchen areas. One home is designed for women with mild intellectual disabilities who wish to live independently in a shared flatting environment, with their wraparound supporters welcomed.

Situated just a 10-minute walk from the supermarket, pharmacy, cafes and other shops, with the town centre within easy reach, residents enjoy both convenience and comfort. Fully furnished communal spaces create an inviting atmosphere where friendships form and support is always available—just bring your bedroom furniture, and you’re set!

With 14 thoughtfully designed bedroom spaces, including five spacious rooms with ensuites, the ARC caters to a variety of needs. Whether you’re looking for stability, a fresh start, or simply a more connected way of living, you’ll find a welcoming and supportive environment here.
