Fenchurch Park is centred around an established community with many open spaces including a 700m walk to the Tamaki Estuary coastal walkway.

This well-resourced community is a thriving hub for new home buyers and those looking for Auckland’s next best opportunity.

Tamaki is experiencing an influx of new residents attracted to its relative affordability, accessibility (well serviced by train and bus) to the CBD and proximity to the Eastern Bays. Tamaki is gathering a reputation for modern high-density residential houses and is flourishing.
