My 27yr old son (engineer) and I (medical lab. scientist) live in a warm, renovated home on a quiet street.
We are quiet, easy going, friendly and have an affectionate Tonkinese cat. We've enjoyed having homestays for a number of years and many have kept contact and remain friends.

5 min walk to bus stops on Great South Rd and the Remuera train station which go to Newmarket, Auckland University and the CBD.
10 min walk to One Tree Hill if you want some excercise.

The light, sunny room has a comfortable single bed, wardrobe and desk. (The bookcase shown in photo has been removed to give more space.)
A spacious bathroom is directly opposite.
Unlimited internet and off street parking available.
