At this 14th floor elevation with breath-taking panorama across the urban landscape to the ranges, this elegant lock and leave one bedroom apartment enhances your lifestyle in a myriad of ways. The Hereford Residences is an award winning building situated in an upmarket neighbourhood ripe with outstanding amenities to meet the needs of professional couples, fly-in/fly-out folk, empty nesters and savvy investors seeking to attract suitable tenants.

Light filled and stylishly minimalist in finish, the well maintained 52 sqm (approx.) home is anchored in living areas by blond timber laminate flooring. A step up through sliding doors accesses a generously proportioned and curvaceous balcony with glass balustrading. The perfect spot to start and finish the day with coffee and cocktails - preferably in that order -the apartment, though small in stature, is big on social pursuits. A sleek corner kitchen is the galley that grew, and boasts stainless steel appliances, and high gloss flush cabinetry spanned by space-expanding mirrored back splash. The carpeted bedroom similarly enjoys wide views and is well served by a gorgeous tiled combination bathroom with laundry nook.

A secure carpark in the basement comes with large locker storage while building facilities include an elegant reception lobby, outdoor lap pool, substantial gymnasium and communal billiard/rumpus room with library. Walking distance to Ponsonby's vibrant scene with boutiques, cafes, restaurants and bars all close at hand. Western Park sports ground just minutes away and also handy for main arterial routes by car and bus to commute in and out of the city.
