Location of Ferndale

Ferndale's location has never been disclosed, but it is suggested it is near either the Auckland CBD, or to Auckland International Airport despite the fact that they are far from one another. The Warner's house also suggests that it could be near Kohimarama, in the Eastern Bays.
Early episodes of the show suggested that Ferndale was located in the East Coast Bays area of the North Shore. This was due to the fact that the show was originally shot in Browns Bay until South Pacific Pictures opened up their new studios in Waitakere in 2000.
In Episode 3774 (July 9, 2007), caller ID on Craig Valentine's mobile phone says his home phone number is 09 839 0974, which may suggest Ferndale is in Waitakere. The logical explanation to this is the phone number actually belongs to production company South Pacific Pictures, who are based in Waitakere.
