One of only 3 apartments in the block, you have the premier position, with the whole top floor to yourself.

Enjoy the most wonderful views of Hobson Bay, the Remuera ridgeline, the boat sheds, and the gulf/harbour and beyond. Situated on the eastern side of the Avenue and facing north, the location means all-day sun plus expansive views.

The main living area is open plan, including a loggia with an outdoor fireplace that can either be used as part of the main area or be separated off by the floor-to-ceiling glass doors.

Relax and enjoy the views in the large master bedroom suite, which includes an ensuite and walk-through wardrobe. The master bedroom is on one side of the apartment, and the two other bedrooms plus family bathroom are on the other. This provides good separation and privacy to both areas. The third bedroom makes a perfect study, and the sun is wonderful there all afternoon.

At basement level, easily accessed by the lift, is storage plus your large double car parking area. A third carpark is located off the secure drive.

Walk to the village, the Rose Gardens, cafes, and the Parnell Baths. All are within easy access.

But what is so special about this 'next home' is the combination of sun, views, parking and space, in the most convenient part of St Stephens Ave.

Easy to care for and well maintained, this apartment allows for relaxed living. Enjoy lock-up-and-leave convenience. And it is not in a 'big' block, thus avoiding many of the issues people find challenging about apartment living.

Once you have experienced the views, sun and ambience of 3/51 St Stephens Ave, you will realise just how comfortable and easy it is to live there.

If you think you may have an interest, be quick. This will not last on the market for long.

Viewing by private appointment at a time that suits.
