Hi everyone,
For most of us, it would take a serious Lotto win to consider living in an elite street. But theres no doubt a little property porn can make us sigh with envy.
Our elite streets series on Homed wound up this week with a focus on Tauranga and the Mount, and yes, thats one very cool beach.
But having talked to dozens of people involved in the real estate industry over the past few weeks while compiling this series, it got me thinking. What would make me most happy? Where would I most like to live in New Zealand if money was no object?
And I concluded it would be somewhere on a beach - not the tame sort, but a decent beach with rolling waves and maybe rocks at one end where the kids can scramble at low tide.
Perhaps there would be a little elevation, so climate change wouldnt be too much of a worry for another 100 years.
In fact, it might just have to be somewhere like Teal Bay in Northland, where we found that [original, cute-as 50s bach that has just sold to a young family]( spent their first Easter there.
The kids, aged 6 and 9, took their surfboards down to the waves; dad sat in a deck chair and envied the boaties; mum took some photos; and all the locals wandered along to have a bit of a yarn.
Yep, that seems like heaven to me.
