Tucked between Mt Albert and Mt Eden, this suburb is a hop, skip and a jump to most attractions in central Auckland. That’s not to say you have to travel far to taste your way through the cuisines of the globe on Dominion Road, a foodie-favourite street close to this superb location. Pretend you’re in France with a fresh croissant from La Voie Française, tuck into a Middle Eastern feast at Tapsi or fill up buffet-style at Hanna Korean BBQ. Still hungry? In the heart of Mt Roskill you can also ‘um’ and ‘’ahh over the long brunch list at Kreem Café or try the cheesy woodfired creations at Firewood Pizza Haven. 

Like many suburbs in central Auckland, Mt Roskill has a namesake maunga (mountain) that promises fresh air and pretty views of the volcano-dotted isthmus. Take a short, steep hike up to the summit of Pukewīwī / Puketāpapa / Mt Roskill where you can soak up the views from a picnic bench or the grassy surrounds. The scoria-cone volcano is estimated to be around 105,000 years old and was an important Maori pā in the Auckland region. 

24 Aurora sits in the heart of it all and at this price is a great launching pad to get you moving in your Auckland lifestyle.
