Houghton Bay
Calm and residential, oriented to the coast. The small beach, the surf and the walking tracks along the south coast define the lifestyle, with little commercial activity. The nearest shops are in Island Bay and Kilbirnie.
Housing and streets
Mostly family homes, mid-century houses and newer builds, on elevated, sloping streets, many making the most of sea and coastal views. Sections suit families, and the higher streets are prized for their outlook.
Getting around
A short drive to Island Bay’s and Kilbirnie’s shops, with buses to the city. The coastal, hilly setting means a car is useful, but the beach and south-coast walks are on the doorstep.

“We found Jason to be extremely thorough and an excellent communicator. We both really appreciated how understandable he made the process for us too as it was our first time selling land. Really grateful for his experience and thoughtfulness along the way and would highly recommend him to others.”
