Remuera is regarded as “the pearl” of Auckland. No wonder that these coveted, sunny slopes are regarded as Auckland’s premier residental location, with only the most successful and affluent families aspiring to live there. This is where the views to the north, east and west seem to stretch forever, over the wooded downslopes where King’s School dominates, over Hobson Bay, out to Mount Victoria, North Head and Rangitoto and, on a clear day, to the hazy silhouettes of Great Barrier Island and the islands of the Hauraki Gulf.

The many exclusive properties on the northern side of Remuera, in an area between Remuera Road, Bassett Road and Victoria Avenue, are considered to be on Remuera’s “Golden Mile” of real estate, standing by the summit of nearby Mount Hobson. The Coburg apartments are proudly situated at number 12 Victoria Avenue.
