Stopping at Rose Hellaby House in the Waitakere Ranges, Coastal West Auckland, one can see exactly why Ms. Hellaby made it her home (and starting her garden even before the house was built in the 1930’s). Spouting possibly one of the best views in all of Auckland, you can see across the expanse of North, Central, West and towards South Auckland City.
Check out some views North, Central and Southward (not ever house sees quite as many distant neighbours!):

It’s good to see pictures of your beautiful country, from Paris 😉
Thanks!
