At Real Living, food is about connection, celebration, and building community. In August, Remuera Gardens hosted two elegant Oxford High Teas, themed around the 1920s Art Deco era. Residents enjoyed a selection of delicious treats in a warm and inviting atmosphere. These gatherings highlighted the special bonds that make village life truly exceptional.

Take a moment to admire the wonderful peggy squares that our residents at Remuera Gardens have been knitting to support local charities around Auckland. The Pins and Needles group meets every Monday afternoon, and they’ve been hard at work crafting these beautiful squares, which will later be crocheted together into cosy blankets. At Real Living, we understand that contributing to a good cause enriches both the receivers and the givers, fostering a strong sense of connection and well-being for everyone involved.

At Remuera Gardens, you can travel around the world without stepping outside of the village. The townhouses and apartments are enveloped by a spacious landscaped park with several hundred species of trees and plants. Each one is meticulously labelled by the village’s passionate gardener and includes gorgeous native species from Italy, Brazil, South Africa, Fiji, China, and of course, New Zealand. Are you ready to embark on a journey through these diverse landscapes?
