Nestled slightly back from Remuera Road sits the expansive, exclusive Victoria Lane apartments, home to some of Auckland’s highest flyers and those who value the finer things in life.
Now, an opportunity has arisen for another resident to secure a brand-new slice of this luxurious development.
Developed by Richard Kroon and designed by Leuschke Group Architects, Victoria Lane offers an effortless blend of opulent New York chic with comfortable New Zealand living in one of the most premium parts of Auckland.
No expensive has been spared on the $150 million development which was a finalist in the Designers Institute of New Zealand 2024 Best Design Awards, which is immediately apparent from the moment visitors arrive at the commanding entrance.

According to Bayleys agent Gary Wallace, number 305 is possibly the best northwest-fasting apartment in the enclave.
“Located on the third floor, apartment 305 is a brand-new sub-penthouse that is positioned on the prized northwest corner of the building,” he says.
“The apartment’s elevated position on Remuera’s coveted northern slopes offers breathtaking 180-degree views of the harbour and city skyline, and the phenomenal view coupled with the opulent lifestyle offered here adds up to a premium offering that’s hard to come by.”
At an impressive 267sqm, vast open-plan spaces are an entertainer’s dream.

Light-drenched interiors spill out to wrap-around loggia, while the elegant yet functional kitchen, complete with scullery and top-of-the-line appliances, is designed to impress whether you’re cooking for many or cooking for one.
The master suite enjoys spectacular views and an oversized ensuite, while two more spacious bedrooms feature their own marble-clad ensuite bathrooms.
The vendors – who bought the apartment off-the-plans but have never lived in it – were looking for a premium apartment in a premium location that was a flat, easy walk to the Remuera shops.
“My parents had previous lived in a clifftop home in Mission Bay and were used to good views of the ocean, but that home was ultimately too big a property for them to maintain as they were getting older,” says their son.
“A move back to Remuera where they’d previously lived and specifically to Victoria Lane promised easier living, without compromising on the lifestyle they were used to.”
The Victoria Lane community is tight and well-connected.

“Most Victoria Lane owners are what I’d describe as empty-nesters,” Wallace says.
“These are people who have sold their substantial Remuera homes that they’ve been in for 20 years, who are making a move for easy, one-level living coupled with that premium lifestyle. Residents love the proximity to Remuera Village, but they can also lock up and leave and travel whenever they want. It ticks all their boxes.”
Victoria Lane provides additional amenities for residents too. A wellness room, which doubles as a meeting room, provides a space for onsite yoga and exercise, while a guest quarters inside the building caters for guests. Plus, the expansive basement features easy EV charging, with apartment 305 enjoying two side-by-side parking bays.
Number 305 also looks to the future.
“Being a spacious three-bedroom apartment, the idea was that there’d be room to cater for an in-home carer in the future, should my parents not be able to drive beyond a certain point. Victoria Lane – and this apartment in particular – really ticks all the boxes for people looking for that luxurious lifestyle that will cater for them long into the future.”
