Poll: Do you think owning your own home in post pandemic Auckland is achievable?

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

A rundown Herne Bay villa that has been in the same family for nearly 80 years has been sold for $8 million.

The new owner plans to restore the villa to its former glory.

In the same family since 1942, the villa sits on about 2200 square metres.

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble

Ernest Rutherford Retirement Village

Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.

This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.
