Four-Bedroom Family Idyll
This cross-lease four bedroom family home with wrap-around decking and a delicious sheltered spa on the rear deck, is absolutely idyll-ised by its position on the edge of the famous Kaipara River. Bursting with wild life the entire very private environment changes daily and the river soothes. The house has spacious living areas and the master suite includes an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe, and direct access to the rear deck. This sun-catching property is snugged in very privately off the road, with a carport, and some plantings in place. There is plenty of space for adventurous youngsters, and for the green thumb in the family. It should definitely be on your radar, if for no other reason than the extraordinarily picturesque location. Shops are within walking distance and Helensville 2km away has schools, medical facilities, cafes, library and a range of shops. This house is a brilliant score if you're willing to do a bit of work. Come and look.

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
