Description of the home we are offering for exchange
We live in a leafy neighbourhood, very close to the central city with easy access to shopping, museums, attractions. We have a bus stop at the end of the road, lots of cafes and restaurants within walking distance. The beach is at the other end of the road (2 min walk). Our house is two stories, two bedrooms one with ensuite bathroom. It's a comfortable home with everything you need to enjoy your stay in Auckland. We may be able to offer a car exchange. We also have a beach house at Muriwai Beach on the west coast of Auckland which may be available. Muriwai is famous for its black sand beach and gannet colony.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Herne Bay is one of Auckland's most desirable neighbourhoods. Lots of families live here so it's a very family friendly environment. We are a couple of minutes walk away from several good restaurants and cafes and a 5 minute drive away from lots more - so plenty of options for cuisine from all over the world! There is good shopping locally and Ponsonby Road (just up the road from us) is well known for being the best place to eat, shop and be seen. There are several parks close by and a public swimming pool. However the beach is just down the road with safe swimming and amazing views. We are not far from the motorway heading both north and south so there is good access for day trips in all directions.
