Lucky Charm on Ireland

For a relaxed, low-maintenance lifestyle, it's hard to look past this upscale, sun-drenched concrete-slab constructed apartment. Located on the second floor, this sunny, contemporary two-bedroom home ticks all the must-have boxes on the bucket list for investors, young couples, professionals and active bachelor boys and girls wanting a safe, undemanding pad to call home. For those who have a primary home outside Auckland and need a place to stay while in town, the versatility and closeness to amenities of this affordable home cannot be overstated.

Well cared-for and carefully designed to maximise the compact floor plan, easy flow to both balconies flanking the apartment allow a choice of two outdoor spots to appreciate the sun and grow some garden herbs in pots or dine al fresco. The open plan living area has space for a sit-down dinner with friends or to lounge around on a cold winter's night and binge on your favourite Netflix series. The modern soft-toned galley kitchen has ample cabinetry and a durable stainless-steel benchtop with appliances to match. Between two double bedrooms the spacious tiled-floor bathroom comprises a shower, vanity and toilet.

Set within a desirable and orderly 2005-built complex, the apartment comes with your own exclusive carpark and 4 extra parking space available for guests. With Body Corp approval you can bring your pets and Bill McKinlay Park, Mt Wellington and Panmure Basin are nearby, when your pooch needs some exercise as much as you do. It's an easy walk to Panmure bus and train hub for the commute to the CBD and the retail mecca of Sylvia Park is a short trip in the car as are Panmure shopping precinct, Lunn Avenue and motorway ramps.
