General Info
Highwic is a must-visit for lovers of history, architecture and gardens, this rambling Gothic mansion is the legacy of early colonial Alfred Buckland. A businessman, farmer and father of 21 children, Buckland made a lasting contribution to provincial Auckland during the 19th century. Situated on a rise that originally overlooked the expanding township of Newmarket, now Auckland’s premier shopping district, ¿ Highwic was built in 1862 as Buckland’s family home. An English immigrant who thrived in this land of new opportunities, Buckland’s wealth and social status is evident in the property’s grand design.

Really very old house. You can get idea through this house to how to build this house at that time

One of the small to medium historic homes in Auckland. Beautiful preservation and lovely authenticity
