7 Emily Place, Auckland Central, Auckland City, Auckland

Gracefully positioned on a prominent central city corner, one character home is a romantic pied-ā-terre to rival the retreats of Europe.

In a nod to its turn-of-the-century roots, lofty high-stud ceilings, spectacular Kauri timber beams, and polished native flooring endure from an industrial history, with a move to apartments around 1990 creating bespoke and very special residences.

This one bedroom spans 48m2 (more or less), with a north-facing position adjacent to Britomart, Auckland Central and the Emily Place Reserve, offering an exceptional pedestrian lifestyle of ease and enjoyment.

Simply serene, with an artistic arched window that lets light flood in, the bedroom, kitchen and tiled bathroom are perfectly in proportion for living, making for easy movement and less maintenance every day.

Fashioned in an era when quality and craftsmanship were paramount, structural assessments are good, and a poetic aesthetic stands out amongst its modern counterparts.

Instantly recognisable as chic living in the city, this apartment would work double duty as a high-powered rental asset, yielding an excellent potential income as short-term accommodation or equally in-demand amongst students and professionals seeking a long-term home in the city.

Just steps to Britomart, Commercial Bay and the vibrant Waterfront Precinct, our city’s best is at your beck and call, including world-class restaurants, beautiful boutiques, and time saved on the daily commute regardless of whether it’s a bus, train, ferry, or scooter kind of day.

Tightly held by a discerning group of mostly owner-occupiers, heritage value here is priceless, providing an exceptional opportunity to own a slice of the city’s storied history whilst using location, style, and size to your urban lifestyle advantage.
