Description
Hello,
We are Siobhan and Tom, a couple living at the bottom of the Waitakere ranges in Auckland City.
We live on a 10 acre lifestyle block, with some very friendly fat sheep, a few chickens, and a dog. With a car, we are not too far from some of the Wild West coast beaches of Auckland like bethels or Piha, and there are a lot of beautiful hikes the area.
Auckland is a big city, and there is a lot to see and explore. The property is semi-rural, but is located within the city and Auckland central is about 30 minutes drive away. -

Help
We are looking for people to do some gardening work around the house. It’s a large property and there is plenty of opportunity to take initiative. You could also help clean/ tidy within the house if you would like.
Things that need doing include:
- lawn mowing (both with ride on, and push mower)
- weeding/ spraying
- pool maintenance
- pruning
- general tidying of the outside
- vacuuming/ cleaning the house -

Accommodation
You would have your own bedroom, and access to a separate toilet nearby. The kitchen is shared, as are living spaces but it is a big house, with a lot of space.
