Hi everyone,
We've been in Auckland for 2 years, having moved from Australia. We own a house in Torbay/Browns Bay.
My wife has just gone back to work (Parnell), so the commute for both of us into the city is just too long, given that we have tiny children.
We've decided to move closer to the city.
We have found a house in Mt Albert that seems good, it is on Mt Albert road though.
Road noise is an issue, but I wonder if there is anything else about Mt Albert I need to know?
Schools are Gladstone School, Marist and Mt Albert Grammar.
On the flip side - we'll be selling our home in Torbay privately, we think it's something special. If anyone is interested in this area (we're classed as Torbay but are actually closer to Browns Bay), let me know as it's not on the market yet.
It's 5 bed, 2 bath, 2 living, huge deck, covered playroom for the kids, pool, garage, built in jungle gym and treehouse, even has a creek at the bottom of the land.
