3/24 Auckland Road St Heliers, Auckland City

There's something a little special about 3/24 Auckland Road, St Heliers

Maybe it's the panoramic view, Northeast-facing and sweeping from Rangitoto and The Bays across Vellenoweth Green and St Heliers Village. Maybe it's the upgraded kitchen, designed to keep things simple but stylish. Or maybe it's that relaxed feeling you get the moment you walk in… like you've just arrived at your weekend escape, even if it's only Tuesday.

Set on the middle, ground level of this tightly held 1930s block (just five in total), this two-bedroom apartment has character in spades - think solid bones, timber joinery, and that unmistakable sense of timeless charm. The layout is easy: two generous bedrooms, a modernised bathroom, and a sunny living area that spills out onto a private deck. From your morning coffee to Friday night drinks, the outdoor space is a daily reminder that views like this don't come around often.

The upgraded kitchen means you won't need to lift a finger - unless it's to uncork the wine. There's even an off-street car space, though you might not use it much with the beach, village, cafes and coastal walks all just steps away.

This is a rare mix of lifestyle and location: perfect for first-home buyers wanting something cool with character, downsizers seeking ease without compromise, or investors keeping an eye on long-term value in a blue-chip suburb.

Come for the view. Stay for the lifestyle. This is a must-see.
