Auction: at 62 Highbrook Drive, East Tamaki on Tuesday 22 February 2022 at 1:00PM (unless sold prior). All viewings and enquiries through Barfoot and Thompson Beachlands.

In the heart of this thriving coastal community awaits an opportunity for those looking for a bit of the great outdoors in their own back garden.

Single level with a great sun aspect, this 3-4 bedroom Stonewood home opens onto an enviable 1,124m2 section. There's 3 double bedrooms plus a separate study that could be a 4th single bedroom if required. The home itself enjoys high ceilings throughout, a substantial open plan family area that extends to covered living, a large separate lounge and modern kitchen with an impressive walk in pantry.

It's new enough to be double glazed yet mature enough to enjoy established fruiting trees and it's position on a quiet cul de sac street offers unique reserve walkways that pop you out near the school or the beach in casual fashion.

It's a move-in and relax situation and being low maintenance there will be time to enjoy the area's recreational offerings ranging from water sports, fishing, and social sporting teams to mountain biking trails, golf and a host of dining options. Or just put out a picnic blanket and relax in your own back garden.

Beachlands offers an alternative laid back coastal lifestyle within Auckland. The local ferry is there to get you into the CBD and all the offerings of the eastern suburbs are within easy reach, yet when you're home you'll feel like you are in another world altogether.

For sale through Barfoot and Thompson. Please contact agent if interested in a viewing or to discuss further. All contact and negotiation through Barfoot and Thompson only

Hi everyone,
Hokitika has been named the most welcoming town in NZ in Booking.com's 10th annual Traveller Review Awards.
Would be keen to hear from those who live there or who have visited whether they think the town really is exceptionally friendly. What makes it a welcoming place, or otherwise? Were there any cafes, restaurants, shops or other places you received a particularly warm welcome?
Lake Tekapo and Oamaru came in second and third place respectively, followed by Cambridge, Picton, Invercargill, Martinborough, Kerikeri and Palmerston North. Would also love to hear from you if you have thoughts on these places. Please include 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it to appear in a travel article.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts?

Going back to school without a school uniform or necessary supplies can make a child feel ashamed. Some kids avoid going to school altogether to escape the shame. Even if they go, they are so embarrassed, it knocks their confidence and makes it hard to learn.

You can help a child start the school year with everything they need to be confident and focused on learning. Send them to school with a uniform, shoes, stationery and anything else they need by sponsoring a Kiwi kid with Variety. We’ve been helping Kiwi kids all around New Zealand for 30 years.
