Priced to Sell - Seriously for Sale.


8/1 Watene Crescent

Orakei, Auckland

Asking Price $1,685,000

Marketed by Mike Zelcer

Steps from the water's edge on Orakei's coveted Watene Crescent, this rare ground-floor waterfront apartment offers an exceptional lifestyle where ease, light, and space take centre stage.Designed in 1971, its generous proportions speak to an era that valued liveability over minimalism - 130 square metres of well-considered design. With motivated sellers welcoming early offers - this is a waterfront opportunity that is very rare and must be secured without delay.

• Enhanced with full double glazing for comfort and quiet. Every room feels calm and inviting, warmed by a north-facing aspect and framed by leafy park views that open to the glistening stretch of Okahu Bay and Devonport beyond.

• The layout feels intuitive: two large double bedrooms, including a master with ensuite, a separate family bathroom and a proper laundry tucked neatly away. The kitchen, with its walk-in pantry, is the kind you can actually cook in - separate yet connected to the flow of the home, ideal for relaxed living and entertaining.

• Outdoors, an easy-care garden terrace invites morning coffee in the sun or evening drinks with the sea breeze drifting through. Here, everything is on one level - effortless, elegant, and perfectly suited to those looking to downsize without compromise.

• A tandem garage provides secure parking, while the apartment's position within a tightly held block of just eight ensures a sense of community and care. This is a well-run association of like-minded owners who share genuine pride in their building.

• Watene Crescent is a location that balances tranquillity with convenience - a short drive to the CBD, moments to the Coates Avenue shops and Eastridge, and with the waterfront walkway just outside your gate.

Offered for the first time in over 30 years, this is a rare opportunity to secure an apartment that feels as solid and serene as its setting - a timeless home by the sea.

DEADLINE SALE CLOSING WEDNESDAY 12TH NOVEMBER BY 4:00PM (unless sold prior).
