Its combination of breath-taking views, spaciousness and luxurious fit-out makes penthouse apartment 401 the jewel on the crown of luxury apartment building 308 Remuera, says development spokesperson Vanessa Wong.
Wong, whose father Neville Fong is behind the completed development, says: “This is an absolutely amazing residence which stretches from one side of the building to the other, taking up the whole north side of the top level.
“Being located at the top of the building at the top of Remuera ridge, it enjoys magnificent views around Auckland. They stretch from way out East right across the harbour, Rangitoto and Devonport, across the CBD and Sky Tower to the green slopes of Mt Hobson.
“We’ve had beautiful photos taken of the view but in reality, you really need to see it in person to comprehend how breath-taking it is.”

This three-bedroom plus study apartment on the top floor of the 18-residence building has a 318sqm interior extended by 66sqm decks and comes with four carparks and two storage lockers. Apartment 401 will be sold at auction on October 5.
“We knew that to do justice to this position, location and views we needed to create a penthouse apartment of the highest quality, with an extraordinary fit-out,” Wong says.
The building at 308 Remuera Road is on the flat right by Remuera Village, having replaced the family home Wong’s parents lived in for two decades plus a neighbouring property. They commissioned Brian Cullen and Chad McMan of Paterson + Cullen + Archaus to design the apartments, Vee Kessner of Space Studio for interior design and Kalmar Construction to build.

The building is completed with some residents having already moved in.
Wong says: “It’s a definite advantage for buyers that this penthouse apartment is fully completed and ready to move into, without any of the uncertainty of buying off the plans. As soon as owners come out of the lift on the fourth floor and open the double doors to this apartment they see the magnificent view.
“You feel like you are in your own world, beautifully designed, flooded with sunlight, fully insulated with acoustic underlay throughout ensures a high level of noise insulation.”
The generosity of space allows for both an open-plan living-informal dining-kitchen with scullery plus a central formal living-dining room, plus a sizeable study. The air-conditioned apartment has two fireplaces sheathed in stone, including a double-sided one between the formal living and study.

It’s hard to imagine how the sophisticated kitchen’s list of Gaggenau appliances could be any more comprehensive. It is equipped with two built-in ovens plus a built-in compact steam oven, a built-in coffee machine, warmer drawer and vacuum drawer.
A fully integrated wine climate cabinet accompanies the integrated fridge, freezer, dishwasher and induction cooktop.
All three bedrooms are ensuited with walk-in wardrobes; the spacious master boasting views of Rangitoto, twin walk-in wardrobes and a sophisticated ensuite with freestanding bath. There’s also a hallway, powder room and a separate laundry.
“This apartment has good storage and features lots of bespoke cabinetry and built-in shelving to display owners’ precious items,” Wong says.
Bayleys, Remuera agent Jenny Kek, who is marketing this property with Robert Ashton, says: “This spacious, luxurious penthouse apartment in its prime location enjoys stunning views, that seemingly go on forever.”
