One of the earliest settled parts of Auckland, Freemans Bay quickly fell into disrepute and during the latter half of the 19th century was home to industrial sites for the abattoir, the gasworks, sawmills and coal traders. The city morgue, city rubbish incinerator (now the well-known Victoria Park Market chimney), and the night soil dump all had their home in Freemans Bay. How times have changed! Major road infrastructure, construction of the Auckland Harbour Bridge and land reclamation have created a suburb right on the edge of the city that includes the Viaduct Basin, Victoria Park, and some great bars and restaurants. Many of the houses are heritage Victorian villas that will suit families with children, but the desirability of living close to the city means there are a lot of single dwellings and apartments in the area too – perfect for those who live alone or couples who want to be close to the heart of it all.
Freemans Bay
If you like a suburb with an interesting past, then you really must consider Freeman’s Bay. The suburb now includes some of Auckland’s most desirable homes, but it wasn’t always this way.

About The Property Market
The Property Market is a boutique real estate agency which has been trading for nearly 10 years. We offer the same service as a traditional real estate agency, only better and for less.
Our commission fee – just 2% of the sale price plus GST
We charge a sweet and simple commission fee of just 2% of the sale price plus GST which typically saves our clients up to $10,000.
How can we afford a smaller commission fee?
We're an independent agency so we don't pay franchise fees and we used cloud based software to reduce our overheads. We also charge an admin fee of $500 including GST.
Marketing Success
We offer every method of sale and we deliver the right strategy to deliver the best price for your property. Our listings get at least twice the exposure of other agencies so they typically sell more quickly and we focus on creating maximum value and delivering a stunning service experience. We consistently sell between 75% and 90% of our stock in the first 90 days of being on the market so we have a formidable track record.
