Must Be Sold

Held by the same owners for 18 years, this Highgate Towers apartment truly reflects what this building has to offer. Opportunities like this don't come around often, and they don't last long.

Positioned in one of the city's most sought-after buildings, this is a short stroll to Karanga-a-Hape Station, opening 13 September as part of the City Rail Link - one of the most significant transport upgrades Auckland has seen, and it's set to bring real energy and connectivity to this part of the city. With the station opening just weeks away, buyers who move now are positioning themselves ahead of a wave of renewed interest in this pocket of town.

Features

Live-in building manager. Pool, gym and sauna available. Undercover tandem parking for two cars, with a generous storage area alongside - a real bonus for city living. Pets allowed subject to Body Corporate consent. Afternoon sundowners on your own deck. Zoned for Freemans Bay School, Auckland Girls' Grammar, Western Springs College, and Ponsonby Intermediate.

Inside, the apartment opens to generous, well-considered living spaces - a rare find in apartment living. There's ample room for a full dining setting and a comfortable lounge, and the whole space feels both functional and inviting. Freshly painted throughout, with room to personalise the kitchen and bathrooms to your own taste, it's ready to move into now with scope to make it your own over time. Double glazing throughout keeps the apartment quiet and well insulated.

The layout is just as well considered: a spacious master with ensuite and double wardrobes, a full-sized second bathroom, and generous storage throughout.

From here, it's an easy walk to Ponsonby Road and Karangahape Road, with some of Auckland's best cafes, restaurants, bars and boutique shopping on your doorstep - and from 14 September, a train station too.

Apartments in Highgate Towers are tightly held for a reason, and with the City Rail Link changing the way this part of the city moves, opportunities like this one won't sit on the market for long.

Call now to book your private viewing or see you at the open home this weekend.
