Description
A one bedroom that delivers real space, outdoor living, and future-proof positioning in a tightly held city-fringe pocket. At a whopping 63 m² internally plus an approximately 15 m² private courtyard, this apartment sits in a different category to most one beds at this level. The scale and layout make it exceptionally functional — space for proper living, dining, and working from home, with the courtyard acting as a genuine extension of the home rather than an afterthought. What this means for you is day-to-day comfort that’s rarely found in one-bedroom apartments, especially this close to the city. The private undercover car park adds another layer of practicality that further separates it from typical stock. The
location strengthens the proposition even further. Less than 200 metres from the new Mount Eden CRL station, the apartment is directly positioned to benefit from the connectivity and capital uplift that major infrastructure investment tends to bring. You’re also within an easy stroll of Mount Eden village, Kingsland, K Road, and the CBD, making this equally appealing for owner-occupiers and renters. What this means for you is flexibility — a home that works now and performs strongly as a rental if plans change. The building itself offers peace of mind. A comprehensive refurbishment was completed in 2018 which means no leaky building issues plus the two years or so remaining on the construction guarantee timeframe adds an extra layer of confidence around future upkeep. With the vendor selling due to a move to Australia to be closer to family, this is a well-timed opportunity to secure a standout one-bedroom at excellent value relative to the wider market. For buyers who understand the value of space, outdoor living, and CRL-led positioning, this is one that deserves close attention. Note: The chattels in the photos may vary from what is being sold; please check the chattels list if this is important to you.
Location
Open in Google MapsLiving in Auckland
Multicultural harbor city that feels like a softer version of California -- great food scene, easy nature access, and a strong work-life balance culture. Housing is expensive (NZ ranks 7th globally for home prices) and everything costs more due to import prices, but salaries come with generous time off and strong worker protections. The biggest adjustment is the distance -- getting home to visit family is a long, expensive flight.
Morning surf before work, weekends tramping through Lord-of-the-Rings landscapes, and a laid-back culture where shoes are optional and nature is never more than ten minutes away.
Visa

NZ has strict biosecurity laws — importing food, plants, or outdoor gear can result in heavy fines. The work-life balance is exceptional, but the job market is small and remote from everywhere.

Next steps for moving to New Zealand
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
