From the apartments entryway, sorbet pink and caramel cabinetry line the walls which is uniquely extraordinary. The lounge is large and light, connecting easily to a galley kitchen with a commanding view of the cityscape down bustling Shortland Street.

It’s position affords easy access to world-class eateries, high-end retail, and several of the city’s trendiest precincts – Britomart, Commercial Bay and Wynyard Quarter. Equally, in the immediate vicinity, residents also enjoy galleries, education, and culture, with transport options virtually at the door.

Distinct in every sense of the word, this superb residence has been loved by our meticulous owners for decades and is being sold fully furnished.

The current owner leases a car park and we are told there is availability to lease a car park but the new owner would need to apply. Shortland Flats Ltd owns the parking spaces. Owners can apply to lease a space by paying a fee. This generates income for the company, helping keep monthly costs low for owners.
