The beauty of apartment living isn't just the low maintenance lifestyle - it's what it gives you back. More time for morning walks along the waterfront, coffee with friends, dinner out, and everything that makes Mount Maunganui such a special place to live. Apartment 17 places it all right on your doorstep.

Whether you're searching for a low maintenance home, a holiday base, or an investment with both short and long term letting options, this is a property that combines flexibility, convenience and an unbeatable downtown position.

Inside, the open plan kitchen, dining and living area brings everyone together, with a well appointed kitchen offering everything you need without compromising on functionality. A heat pump keeps things comfortable year round, while large sliders open to a generous covered balcony - the perfect spot for an afternoon drink watching the cruise ships come and go, or simply to sit back and soak up the energy of downtown Mount.

The master bedroom enjoys its own ensuite and direct access to the balcony, extending the room and making the most of the outdoor space. Additional storage has also been thoughtfully added, with the flexibility to easily remove it if preferred. A second bedroom adds flexibility, whether you're accommodating guests, working from home, creating a hobby room, or setting up the perfect lock and leave holiday base. A second full bathroom completes the floor plan.

Adding to the appeal is a secure car park, low body corporate fees, and the added reassurance of a recently reclad building.

But it's the location that truly sets this one apart. Step out the front door and you're immediately immersed in everything downtown Mount has to offer. Boutique shopping, cafes, restaurants and bars are quite literally at your doorstep. Coronation Park and the Little Big Markets are just down the road, while both Pilot Bay and the beach are an easy stroll away.

Because when the best of Mount Maunganui is this close, life becomes refreshingly uncomplicated.
