About this property

Harbour Views & City Lights – Peaceful 2BR Retreat

Experience comfort and style in this recently renovated 2-bedroom, self-contained apartment with private entrance. The spacious master bedroom features a king-sized bed. The second bedroom has a new queen-sized sofa bed. Both with mattress toppers and electric blankets. Modern bathroom with shower. Well-equipped kitchenette.

Guests love the views over Auckland Harbour to the bridge and city skyline, the 2-minute walk into charming Birkenhead village with its many cafes and shops and the 5 minute walk to Chelsea Estate Heritage Park -- and other beautiful walks close by.

Enhance your stay with optional extras: a creative cocktail sampler tray or the world's best homemade muesli with fresh fruit/yogurt.

The space
This is a modern, self-contained two-bedroom apartment, ideal for 1-4 people. It is on a quiet road yet a 2-minute walk to the heart of Birkenhead village. The nearest cafe is less than 100 metres away.

It is 3 minutes walk from the nearest bus stop, which has direct buses into the Auckland CBD (approximately 15 minutes on direct routes).

Discounts available for long-term stays

Other features include:
* Well-appointed kitchenette, including full-size fridge/freezer, multifunction air fryer (eg, grill, bake, slow cooker), Nespresso coffee maker, microwave, tableware and utensils.
* Private deck with outside seating and BBQ
* Wireless internet
* Heat pump for instant heat or cooling

Other things to note
The driveway into the townhouse complex is steep but is not a problem if you take it slow. There are stairs from the carpark to the apartment so will be difficult for those with limited mobility .

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
I'm originally from the USA but have been in Aotearoa New Zealand for nearly 30 years. My day job is being a professor of business communication at Massey University. I love reading, music (especially live!), tramping, creative cocktails, and travel.

Why they chose this property

I love Birkenhead because I have amazing views of the city and harbour, and can walk to do all my shopping or go to cafes and some amazing restaurants.

What makes this property unique

It's a rare combination of peaceful retreat (on a no-exit road, so very little traffic), gorgeous views of the harbour and city, and short walk to almost everything you need. You can find tranquility or a social cafe scene depending on your mood!
