About this property

Privately positioned on the entire top floor, this exceptional north-facing penthouse presents a rare opportunity to secure a spacious home with an enviable combination of sun, space, sea views and an outstanding outdoor entertaining area. The apartment embodies timeless appeal, with solid construction and generous proportions. Glass balustrade stairs lead to your private top-floor sanctuary, where expansive glazing and an elevated position capture magical ridgeline views, stretching across St Heliers to Vellenoweth Green, the beachfront, Rangitoto and the sparkling Waitemata Harbour. Bathed in natural light from its prized northerly aspect, the beautifully proportioned open-plan living and dining spaces flow seamlessly outdoors to an extraordinary 96-square-metre Grappa hardwood deck. Both the living area and main suite open effortlessly to this magnificent terrace - a sublime setting for morning coffee in the sun, sophisticated entertaining and unforgettable evenings against a backdrop of twinkling lights and harbour views. Thoughtfully enhanced with double-glazed sliding doors, the residence offers year-round comfort, retaining warmth through winter while welcoming cooling sea breezes during the summer months. Plus, there's a double garage with excellent storage for all your bikes and lifestyle toys! Accommodation comprises two generous double bedrooms, a separate study, a beautifully tiled family bathroom and the convenience of a second powder room, ensuring both comfort and practicality. Beyond the apartment, the location is equally appealing. Stroll down the hill for a game of bowls or tennis, or continue on to the vibrant St Heliers Village, where cafés, restaurants, boutique shopping and the waterfront are all within easy reach. With its breathtaking outlook, abundant sunshine, generous proportions and extraordinary outdoor living space, this is a truly special penthouse in one of St Heliers' most sought-after positions.
