Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Our family home has been recently fully renovated inside and out. It is a large two level home with magnificent views overlooking the Hauraki Gulf harbour. Tindalls Beach is just a short walk down the road where you can swim, launch a boat, go fishing or picnic. Our home is ideal for people who want to experience NZ way of life with a beach feel but also stay close to the city. It is located just 40 mins drive north of Auckland city on the beautiful Whangaparaoa Peninsula. Tindalls Bay is a north facing beach and has natural shelter from wind. We have lived in this home for the past 9 nine years and now wouild like to explore some house swap options.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Our neighbourhood is very quiet and is largley compromised of professional / retired people. Often these people are grand parents and walk their grand chidlren to the beach or park which is just down De Luen Avenue. We have an active neighbourthood watch where people look out for each others property and notify each otherr if they are intending on being away. A very nice nieghbourthood to live in.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
Have a look at the www links below for some video of the area where we live which is called 'The Hibiscus Coast'(because of the many hibiscus trees that grow along the beaches and flower at Christmas time). Little Manly shops has many cafes and restaurants which is 2 minutes from home. There is a shopping plaza 5 minutes away by car where you can buy most things.
