22 Emily Place AUCKLAND CENTRAL, Auckland City

A striking and unique, character apartment.

If space is one of the city's luxuries, this cool New York style apartment is something special. No question, living in an urban warehouse conversion has mystique. Style. If you have been looking for a raw industrial space to tailor, or whether you want to just move into a beautifully-created loft, you need look no further than such a superb warehouse space.

This fabulous apartment not only has wide open plan living ideal for light entertaining, with polished concrete floors, exposed brick and concrete, natural timber, steel joinery and a high stud, but has spaces for eating, sleeping, working, reading and, most of all, relaxing.

It is crafted with an overlay of luxe and includes unique features rarely found in apartments in the central city the moody dark entry, ambient fireplaces, imported wallpapers and a shocking pink wall, freestanding bath, sexy dark gloss porcelain-tiled double-head shower for two, under-tile heating, designer kitchen on steel and aluminium legs with long black granite island, library area with divan seating, a separate laundry room and clever storage.

It is located in an emerging character building currently being progressively restyled, constructed around the late 1920s during the Art Deco era, with original brick walls, concrete pillars, beams and floors, and situated opposite a historic park. Starting life as the Paykel's Building, and subsequently Bing Harris & Co, its superb downtown location in the heart of the city is in one of the historic streets of the CBD, with an outlook to character buildings, and a rare view to trees and Emily Place Reserve. It sits adjacent to Britomart, with the latest restaurants and boutiques, close to the harbour and Viaduct Basin, the Fort Street shared space with its outdoor bars and cafes, Imperial Lane, theatres, supermarkets, Britomart Transport Centre trains and buses, ferries, and the University just up through the park.

Contemporary and impressive industrial conversion.
