2B/11 Pakenham Street East, Auckland Central

Reconnect with the tranquil beauty of nature in the heart of the CBD, living in a stunning compact home overlooking an expansive arboretum. This extraordinarily affordable two bedroom apartment at Lumina, part of The Parc complex, opens to over an acre of private parkland where you can walk your dog (yes, it's pet friendly) through a promenade of shade trees, pick your own lemons and stop to perch on a park bench to enjoy the magic of this little miracle. It would be almost impossible to find anything else like it in Auckland offering such a compelling convenient cosmopolitan lifestyle, moments to Commercial Bay shops, your CBD office, great bars, eateries and the ferry. The apartment is recently renovated for a contemporary French flavour with a sleek new white kitchen, wide plank French oak floors and new lighting throughout. Open-plan living is very spacious. Together with the generous master bedroom, it expands to a substantial full-width covered entertainer's deck that basks in north-west sun and the glorious leafy scenery. Both bedrooms, one could be your office, share a semi-en-suite bathroom and a second guest toilet. The master bedroom has two individual wardrobes and clever storage is packed in throughout. Shared use of the pool and gym plus a secure car park are more good reasons to invest in this outstanding leasehold home. A smart choice for those keen on a great city bolt-hole who want to use their equity elsewhere. Ground Lease: $13,247.85 per annum. ...
