Aptly named "The Golden Mile", beachside Takapuna with its three tree lined avenues leading to the water is widely regarded as one of Auckland´s most prestigious and desirable locations. Step into Minnehaha Ave and you are immediately in a peaceful haven of beautiful homes and gardens where you can pop on your togs and stroll to beautiful Thornes Bay beach right at the end of your street. This safe, golden sand cove is largely unknown to the wider public but a treasured gem for local residents. Main Takapuna beach is a few minutes stroll on the beachside walkway and is famed for its wide stretch of golden sands, views of Rangitoto the Gulf and Islands, safe swimming, northern aspect with wonderful sun and close proximity to Takapuna township. It is a unique lifestyle to reside so close to a beautiful beach and stroll to schools, a major town with restaurants, cafes, galleries and commercial amenities equal to that of a city and the Ease of access to the motorways and Auckland city just 15 minutes away is another bonus. In addition to this you will be attracted by the overall charm, safety and relaxed lifestyle which goes with this beach side location. Opportunities to purchase a charming home in such a delightful garden setting in this prime location are extremely rare.
