Description
Kia ora
I have a lovely little house in Auckland in Narrow Neck on the North Shore. it is a 5 minute walk to a beautful beach for swimming and walking . The beach looks out over Rangitoto with majestic views. My house is a short bus ride to Devonport the local village where there are plenty of cafe's, art galleries and beautiful library with plenty of parks. From Devonport village you can take ferry into the city which takes 15 mins. You can also get bus to Takapuna and over to city. So great access.
