So central - yet so quiet!
Peaceful, comfortable, and close to all that Gisborne has to offer. Walk to the main street, to food and takeaways and bottle store, and the best pies at Bakery 22. Just a two minute walk to the Botanical Gardens and the Taraheru river, and a scenic stroll across the footbridge up to the Ballance St Village. Enjoy a longer walk connecting with the walkway to Waikanae Beach, or take a quick drive to Gisborne's beautiful beaches. Or simply relax in the large garden with mature fruit trees.
