At 8 pence a day on top of a small deposit, a Surfdale section was also promoted as a sound investment – so close to downtown Auckland that “values must go up and up and up”.
Well, they weren't wrong there.
Today, Waiheke Island brings to mind sunny vineyards and beachy weekend getaways. The image of Waiheke as an “island paradise” has its origins in 1920s marketing, but the island has long been desirable even as its character has changed over the past centuries.
As we go into the long weekend and begin to venture further afield again, why not have a read of how Waiheke came to be the place it is today, in this blog about its recent history by our Project Curator, Jane Groufsky.

It's inspirational to meet a family that's taken the plunge to leave the rat race and establish themselves in the country. This couple not only managed to keep their jobs, but also build a stunning house on the Coromandel Peninsula that has caught the eye of NZIA judges.

While our country went into lockdown we made a conscious decision to find solutions for our clients who were partway through campaigns to sell their properties. With the aid of technology and the power of teamwork, Carpenter Realty came together to make remote auctions happen from our auctioneers living room!
Why? For one reason only: #carpentercare
What sets us apart from the rest? The difference is in how we care for our customers. Carpenter Care means if there's a chance we can work hard enough to make it happen, then we will do whatever it takes.
We are a humble bunch at Carpenter Realty. All that flashy stuff isn't really what we are about. But this little circle? It says we have the best auction results out of all the agencies in the North Shore for the last 3 months, and that makes us feel pretty good.
Well done team, you've done us proud.

Sourdough is a bread raised by aerobic yeast (yeasts in the atmosphere) that are captured in a mixture of flour and water and fed regularly to keep them alive. There are many different ways to make a sourdough starter — some people insist on using mineral water to feed the starter, others use water from boiled potatoes to get the starter going. It’s very effective to get a cup of someone else’s starter that you can then feed and grow yourself. Other people have sourdough starters that have been handed down through generations, but there’s no need for all that fuss: it’s incredibly easy to make your own.
