The owner calls her Apartment Le Mouchoir because it's small , but it's so perfectly planned that she felt compelled to write a thank you letter to Pip Cheshire for his thrilling design. SKHY , formerly the 1970's Winstone Aggregate head office , provided Cheshire Architects and Lamont and Co with a wonderful canvas to create different floor plates and therefore attract a wide range of residential buyers. The interior detail is elegantly articulated in the high 3.3 metre stud, the concrete beams, the engineered oak floors and the unexpected scullery that houses the laundry appliances. This is a sophisticated Apartment with one bedroom , a utilities room because it is windowless ( but a single bed can fit in ) , a separate bathroom, and a kitchen that actually works for cooks! The owner wasn't ready to dispose of her book collection , so she had ten metres of bookshelves installed. If you are a reader you will appreciate this. Of course absolutely everyone loves the wall of wardrobing in the bedroom. The balcony is covered and sheltered and perfect for visiting little people to eat their lunch while the grown ups are inside drinking rose , laughing and pontificating around the dining table. Every day you can wander to one of the many eateries nearby . At night there are fabulous restaurants like Lillius, Syds French Cafe or Kazuya to become regulars at !

The bright lights of the city skyline will give you small moments of joy. You might call it a pied a terre, a lock and leave or simply your next home, regardless, be prepared to be romanced by this little apartment !

This really is more high-end New York than Auckland. The smart layout provides distinct bedroom, kitchen, lounge, dining and study areas, all while reinforcing a sense of space. Commercial/residential zoning gives ample flexibility - could this be your dream office or showroom? And of course location couldn't be better. We're talking walking distance to everything the CBD, K'Rd, Ponsonby, Parnell, Newmarket and the Domain has to offer. This sale includes a secure car park on a separate standalone title in the Luna building next door (accessed via Hohipere Street). While handy, you will relish being able to skip the traffic by wandering down to your favourite local for dinner or drinks. SKHY is home to a wonderful community of mainly owner occupiers and has been looked after by a very well-managed and proactive body corporate since completion in 2018. The current owners are a young professional couple who have loved living here and you will too.

This sophisticated bespoke New York loft style Apartment was a collaboration between the owners, Lamont and Co the developers and Cheshire architects when this commercial hub of the SKHY Precinct was converted to residential, when it was a shell. The owners were already living in the main SKHY tower and loved the way the SKHY Precinct worked for them and their French Bulldog. The openness of this fourth floor elevation, allows good light deep into the heart of the space. The area where this was not a possibility is in the entrance way and this could be developed into a wonderful library by someone with a book collection. Alternatively this entranceway to this apartment could be made into an office and could be screened from the interior of the living and dining. Fortunately, because this was originally going to be a commercial space, there an external toilet and wash basin in the stairwell of the building attached to the title, making this notion of a work from home office even more sensible. The living is open plan and this interior is bathed in uplifting end of day sunlight. A wall of cabinetry conceals the minutia of daily kitchen life. Views are towards Mount Eden, the glorious wooden Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the vibrancy of upper Symonds Street. Motorways North and South are easily accessed. Eateries such a Kazuya and Sid's French Cafe abound in this part of town. The exterior of the 2019 concrete-built building has a strong almost sombre presence. A single car park is internally accessed and is included in the sale price. As this space has a commercial footprint it is a perfect work from home dwelling. CV $1,500,000
