Levels 2 and 3, 34 Douglas Street, Ponsonby.
When the multi-award-winning architect, Ross Brown, designed and commissioned the 34 Douglas Street project in 2009, he was at the forefront of the evolving population demographic. Two to four nights in the city, in the office with the team by day, and at home in the apartment for the evenings. Then come whichever day of the week as appropriate, lock up the apartment and leave for the out-of-town base.
Over time, as the owners' needs changed, the two commercial floors became quality, income-producing investments. This underwrites the beauty of these low-maintenance unit title floors - either of them may be used going forward as commercial office floors, residential apartments, or one of each.
Excellent light from the northern and western perimeters, which in turn provide views across a residential neighbourhood that is zoned to limit future development height. Balconies with access via full glass sliders complement the design-led steel and concrete structure.
Level 2 could provide a turnkey apartment option, already being fitted out, fully consented, and code-compliant. Alternatively, the present office is an ideal use. Level 3 has an existing residential building consent to convert from its current commercial use.
Each floor has two car parks, which are covered and very secure. A fifth car park has consent for a change of use, as an owner may require. This could become a small office, store, or workshop, or just stay as a car park.
A 300 metre stroll along Douglas Street places you right in the middle of arguably the best part of Ponsonby Road. And contrary to that proximity, 34 Douglas is a microcosm of a wonderfully quiet suburban community.
