Here is a little information about each of our suburbs.

Khandallah is a quiet village nestled in the northern hills of Wellington. Home to some 8,500 people, living in 3,360 dwellings, the area has some real hidden gems.

Take a stroll down Ganges Rd to the restored town hall which has been the heart of

the community since 1902. You can get a decent cup of coffee there, relax at a day

spa, peruse an art gallery and have a cheeky vino in the sun at the local pub.

Overlooking the suburb is Mount Kaukau and Khandallah Park. The 30-metre

summer pool in Khandallah, has given countless which was earmarked for closure

by the Wellington City Council, keeps kids cool and gives them something to do in

the middle of suburbia, where its still safe to ride a bike.
