We sit on 1.2 hectares at the highest point in Coatesville. The views are the real thing: Auckland spread out below, sunrises that come straight at you, and on clear nights a sky you don't get in the city. Albany central is about 10 minutes away, so you're not actually remote.

We have sheep on the property. There are usually a couple of wild rabbits around too, if you look.

A few things to know

Outdoor hazards : Being semi-rural, the property has high retaining walls, steps without handrails, and uneven ground in the paddocks. Please watch your footing and keep an eye on young children.

Security camera : There are two external cameras, one mounted outside the main house and one outside the guest house. Both monitor the gate, driveway, and exterior areas only. They record continuously for security purposes and do not point inside either house.

Alarm system : Both the main house and guest house have alarm systems fitted (currently inactive) with motion sensors in the lounge and main bedroom.

Wildlife and insects : Daddy long legs spiders, geckos, rabbits, and birds are part of life here. Nothing harmful, just semi-rural.

Our sheep: We'll come by occasionally to check on them. We'll keep it brief.

Garden and lawn care : A gardener and lawn person come through from time to time.

Rubbish : We collect rubbish on Sunday afternoons and return the bins on Monday.
