Between the beach and the bay — character homes with genuine sea views.
About Humewood
Humewood runs from the beachfront up towards the harbour, and it is one of the few areas where an ordinary budget can still buy a genuine sea view. Older homes with character sit alongside apartments within walking distance of the beach.
The housing stock
Interwar and post-war homes on sloping streets chasing the sea view, plus apartment blocks along Marine Drive and the harbour side.
Who moves here
Buyers who prioritise views and walkability, tenants who work in town or at the harbour, and landlords converting larger homes into guest units.
What matters day to day
If you own here
Humewood's value sits in the view line and the zoning, so both get checked first. If a property can carry a second dwelling or a guest unit, the agent tells you what the municipality will and will not allow before you spend money on plans.
Request an assessmentIf you are looking
Views, slope and street noise vary enormously from one road to the next here. Ask us for a viewing and the agent will walk you through the differences rather than sending you a link.

Sales, rentals & tenant checks
Rita handles selling and letting from start to finish — pricing a property on what has actually sold, finding and screening tenants, and the paperwork for both. The seller, landlord, buyer and tenant all deal with the same person.
One message and the right agent comes back to you with something useful — no obligation.
