Gloomy winter day here in Auckland and it’s my day off so I decided to do some real estate stalking and found one of my favourite homes is up for sale. It was featured in a magazine a few years back and I must have ripped out the entire article for my folder once I stopped drooling! I probably couldn’t afford the garage but hey we’re all dreamers at heart. It certainly made me think of summer…..love the slick tropical feel with ethnic touches and worn timbers. Yum.
I want to see more pictures! I want to see bigger pictures! Hey I want to see better pictures! Sammy I want to see those torn out magazine pages! Dreaming of a beachside bolt-hole. Actually, like you, I’m dreaming of summer down here in the southern winter. Link to this North Shore, Auckland home here while it lasts.

I just have one question:
When do I move in?

Thanks for posting Jo. For those that don't know – Aotearoa is the Maori name for New Zealand and means land of the long white cloud. The beach is Takapuna (falling spring), the harbour is the Waitemata (sparkling sea) , the gulf is the Hauraki (north wind) and the volcano is Rangitoto (bloody skies). So much more poetic than English don't you think? 🙂

I meant to say the beach in the photo etc…not all beaches!

love the building but think the interior could have been done a lot better the bar stools look very out of place and to be honest rather ugly the dinning table large yes but completely out of place and not impressive in this setting . would love to live there though.
