The suburb of Saint Heliers in Auckland is an older established beachside village community, that has recently started undergoing a amendment from what was previously continually called a retirees suburb, to being one in all a vibrant and energetic space appropriate to folks from all walks of life. Situated at the end of a long scenic waterfront drive along Tamaki Drive, Saint Heliers is the last of the Eastern Bays suburbs beaches along the Tamaki Drive route, and is still only a 15 – 20 minute drive from the heart of Auckland City at off-peak times. The houses for sale in St Heliers are acknowledged as being at the upper end of the Auckland Real Estate market, with many luxurious and very expensive cliff top and beachside properties receiving envious looks from passersby as they amble along the recently finished beachfront promenade. The establishment of the beachside suburb occured towards the end of the 19th century, with it quickly becoming popular as a seaside holiday destination for central residents of Auckland’s inner suburbs, who would arrive at the wharf (no longer there unfortunately) by ferry, from the city. With the opening of the beachfront roadway in 1931 (Tamaki Drive), the area became far more accessible as it was as a consequence of this that new subdivisions, and new houses began springing up, which brought the community of St Heliers into being one of the central Auckland City suburban delights, that was now within easy access of the city, for information please contact auckland houses for sale. The population quickly grew, and it is still known as one of only a handful of unique suburban villages in Auckland, although Saint Heliers is set aside as being very unique due to its semi sleepy, seaside beachy feel. If you are able to afford one of the houses for sale in St Heliers, then you will be buying into a great long term investment in what is one of Auckland’s most desirable suburbs.
