The lease to our apartment in the city runs out on 3rd August. It's a great location, but a bit light starved - especially as Helen works from home. So we went and had a look around at some new places today, on the off chance we might find a better spot. Boy, did we find a better spot!!!! We fancied living in a district of Auckland called Titirangi - it's on the West Coast surrounded by hills and dense bush. So that's where we started looking - the first place we saw was ok, but totally surrounded by forest, so was no lighter than our current pad. The second place we went to was a dream. Only a small, 1 bedroom apartment (Just built, never been lived in) and again surrounded by bush, but this time much lighter. The outlook is a true, 24 carat, million dollar view. Honestly, it's simply stunning. The place borders a nature reserve, which has paths down to the beach. Awesome. We slapped down a deposit there and then, move in on 30th. We're going back on Saturday to finalise all the legal stuff. and hopefully will blag a few piccies to put up.
Helen says finding this place is the best birthday present she's ever had.
