About Churton Park
Nestled in the northern hills of Wellington, Churton Park is one of the city’s youngest, fastest‑growing, and most family‑friendly suburbs. With sweeping views, modern homes, excellent schools, and a strong sense of community, Churton Park offers a unique blend of peaceful suburban living and easy access to the capital’s buzz and business.
Churton Park’s identity is defined by its hilly terrain, green pockets of regenerating bush, and wide views stretching toward Tawa and towards Takapau Valley. The suburb enjoys slightly warmer, calmer weather than central Wellington thanks to its sheltered position.
Whether you’re walking the skyline walkway, exploring local reserves, or simply enjoying the outlook from home, nature is always close.
At the heart of the suburb is the Churton Park Village. This is where you’ll find a café, medical & health services, community centre, supermarket plus so much more.
Churton Park is just minutes from the Johnsonville train station and transport hub, or the Tawa train mainline. It is equal approx. 15 minutes travel time by car to Porirua, Petone and the central city.
Churton Park continues to develop new housing and facilities bringing it closer to Tawa and Glenside West.
About the business directory

Why include neighboring businesses?
Including nearby businesses that serve Churton Park makes the directory more practical for residents, who often rely on services based outside the suburb.

About listings and safety
Our business directory is designed to help residents find local and nearby services, but inclusion in the directory does not mean a business has been checked, vetted, or approved by us. Listings are provided for community convenience only, and we do not assess the safety, quality, or reliability of any business or individual. Residents should always carry out their own checks, ask questions, and make informed decisions before using any service.
The directory is simply a community resource — not a certification or guarantee.
