BEST STREETS
Pukerangi Cres, Umere Cres, Amy St, Aaron St, Malabar Dr, Ballin St. David Storer, of Bayleys, says many grander homes have traditionally sat along the streets heading up the ridge towards Remuera with Ladies Mile, Arthur, Arran and Amy Sts all leading up to Pukerangi Cres, some enjoying views to One Tree Hill or across Michaels Ave Reserve.
Ellerslie Racecourse Renowned for the gallops, Ellerslie Racecourse events have increasingly become more about family fun, fashion and food. The Pop Up Globe, hosting Shakespeare plays, was held in the gardens. The course's infield has a driving range and a pitch and putt nine-hole course.
Ellerslie Village The business association has been behind improving the streetscape of the town centre and boosting its vibrancy. The main street has cafes, bars and restaurants that are well supported by locals. Regular events such as this Sunday's Ellerslie Spring Fairy Festival & Pirate Party attract big crowds.
