Remuera is well known as a leafy green suburb with a mix of mainly old and mid century homes close to the City Centre with great amenities and easy access to all that Auckland has to offer.
Remuera is one of Auckland's older suburbs characterised by many large houses, often Edwardian or mid 20th century. A prime example of a "leafy" suburb.
Remuera is noted for its quiet tree lined streets. The suburb has numerous green spaces, most obvious of which is Mount Hobson - a volcanic cone with views from the top overlooking Waitemata Harbour and Rangitoto Island in the Hauraki Gulf.
We are 5Km from Auckland City Centre. 5 minutes walk from Remuera Metro Station with fast and frequent train service to the City
Mount Hobson is a well known landmark voted as one of the best of Auckland's volcanic cones - pedestrian access from our back garden to the reserve.
Excellent public transport served by an integrated network of buses and trains connecting to ferries.
Remuera Golf Club.
