What Is Your Howick Home Worth?
Howick is a historic coastal village on the eastern edge of Auckland, established as a fencible settlement in the 1840s and still centred on a walkable high street above the beach. It anchors the wider east Auckland area and consistently attracts families for its schools and its position on the water.
