What Is Your Onehunga Home Worth?
Onehunga sits on the Manukau Harbour at the southern edge of the isthmus, with a genuine main street, a train station and a working port. It has changed considerably over the past decade as buyers priced out of the neighbouring central suburbs moved in, and it now trades quite differently from how it did.

About Onehunga
Onehunga sits in Central Auckland. Here is what shapes the market here, in short.
- A mix of villas and bungalows on the older streets, post-war housing through the middle, and a large volume of recent townhouse development, particularly around the town centre and the harbour edge.
- Walking distance to Onehunga Mall and the train station, which is the strongest price gradient in the suburb
- Character and condition of pre-1940 housing, which attracts renovators and carries a premium when original detail survives
- State Highway 20 runs alongside, giving quick access to the airport and the northwest via Waterview.
- Schools nearby include Onehunga High School and Onehunga Primary School
