Why We Love Epsom
Epsom is regarded as the elder statesman of Auckland city. From its farming origins and wealthy landowners early last century, it remains a dignified, upper middle class suburb. Lining the leafy streets are magnificent old character homes mixed with modern architectural showstoppers, investment units and townhouses on compact sites.
Convenient to the CBD and close to motorways, it’s a popular place for families to live as most of Epsom falls within the sought-after school zones of Auckland Grammar and Epsom Girls Grammar schools. High decile Primary and Intermediate public schools are close at hand and there are two private Girls Schools; St Cuthbert’s College and Diocesan School for Girls. Children of all age groups can be seen walking to and from school each day, something rare in other suburbs. And naturally, the schooling in the area drives a consistent demand for property, keeping values high.
Residents of Epsom want for nothing when it comes to retail therapy. For those who veer towards the small boutique style, Greenwoods Corner is a delight; Mt Eden Village offers a more eclectic mix of retail and bustling cafes and restaurants. Royal Oak is close and so is Remuera. Let’s not forget the upbeat buzz of Newmarket, crammed with myriad designer fashion stores in Nuffield Street and Teed and major retail chains to be found in the Two Double Seven Mall. Numerous cafes and trendy restaurants are dotted along these main street precincts; and movie theatres and recreational clubs abound.
You can easily forget how close we are to the city when you experience the wide open spaces of One Tree Hill and Cornwall Park; our magnificent reserve in the suburb’s heart. A popular weekend destination for Aucklanders, it provides a welcome respite from a busy city life.
No wonder Epsom maintains its popularity as a great place to live for so many people; those who have lived here for generations and newcomers from far and wide.
