If you’ve ever taken a stroll along Wellington’s waterfront, you’ve undoubtedly, if not unknowingly, stopped to gaze at the luxury apartment building on Clyde Quay Wharf.
On one hand it’s unmissable, with its endless glass, modern design, and spire reaching to the sky. On the other, it blends in seamlessly with its surroundings.
Is it a wharf? A ship? A building? Who knows – and that’s the appeal of this beautiful development.
Jutting out into the ever-changing Wellington harbour, Clyde Quay Wharf looks and feels like a docked cruise ship. But inside are some of New Zealand’s most luxurious residences – and 2B/4 is now on the market.

2B/4 Clyde Quay Wharf in Te Aro, Wellington, has a 2021 RV of $3.45 million and is seeking buyer enquiries over $3.795m.
Formerly a working wharf, this luxury residential, retail and office development was completed in 2014 by prestigious developers and apartment experts Willis Bond.
Consisting of 76 premium apartments, the development also features an array of residents’ facilities including a concierge service, gym with access to personal training onsite, business centre, and a 16-seat private cinema.

What sets 2B/4 Clyde Quay Wharf in Te Aro, Wellington, apart from other apartments within the building is not only its sense of space and connection to the water beyond, but also its literal size at 231sqm.
Originally purchased off the plans, 2B/4 merges two apartments into one, canvassing the entire width of the building.
Three balconies offer iconic Wellington harbour views from almost every direction, allowing residents to follow the sun and outlook throughout the day. 2B/4 is currently set up with one large, luxurious master suite, complemented by multiple living spaces that take advantage of the incredible views in every direction.
The east wing could remain as a second living space, library or media room, or easily become a second bedroom serviced by its own walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. Entertaining is a dream with the large kitchen, scullery and large, open living spaces. Internal heating and cooling provide year-round comfort, whatever the weather outside.
2B/4 is being sold with two carparks and a storage locker, with the option to purchase a third carpark. Despite being so central, the apartment offers unparalleled privacy and solitude.

When the large glass doors are open, the gentle sound of the lines of the boats clanging against each other below offers a unique city soundtrack not heard anywhere else in Wellington. When the doors are closed, the sounds of the elements are banished outside, creating a tranquil, snug escape high above the water below. At night, the twinkling lights of the city beyond create an almost magical quality to living here.
While some may perceive apartments as being the answer to empty-nesting downsizing, Tommy’s agent John Kettle, who is marketing the property, says 2B/4 Clyde Quay Wharf is the ultimate upgrade.
“There’s no superlative that can accurately describe this property,” Kettle says.
“It has a class and a sophistication all on its own and will startle you in the nicest way possible. The size and spaciousness, 180-degree views across Wellington harbour, proximity to all the best bits of the capital, supreme design and interiors, residents’ facilities that come with living at one of Wellington’s most prestigious addresses … luxury properties of this magnitude do not often come to market.
“This home is not a downgrade, it’s a significant upgrade, and will be ideal for empty nesters looking to reward themselves in the next stage of their lives.”
