APARTMENTS WE LOVE

A COLLECTABLE WORK OF ART This landmark apartment conversion from a nightclub building comes with a colourful history, writes ROBYN WELSH.

AUCKLAND CENTRAL 402/40 Kitchener Road 3 3 2

B

uilt in 1912, this Edwardian landmark has hosted its share of colourful characters.

Criminals came and went from the old magistrate’s court.

By the early 2000s, it was the high-flyers frequenting Otto's top floor restaurant and nightclub, above the glamorous entrance into the adjoining Metropolis apartments.

Then, in 2007 business couple Sally and Mark Synnott came looking for a city complement to their country lifestyle in Clevedon. “We drove past here and I cheekily said ‘I’d come

into town if we could buy that’, never thinking that could happen,” Sally says.

Never one to forgo a challenge, Mark made inquiries.

They bought the top floor and they’ve never left, still living their best city/country life in one of the four apartments they created here.

Their apartment is at the Otto’s end. This slightly larger 235sqm apartment is at the nightclub end. Two smaller apartments they still own are in between.

When they put this apartment on the market four years ago, a prospective buyer asked to rent it out as a private art gallery for international buyers.

“Seeing this apartment as a gallery has made this feel even more like a creative, artistic project than a development,” says Sally.

“It has been a wonderful project that took several years and with all the bespoke features we’ve built into this apartment, I was just not ready not to be able to see it again.

“It has been a long goodbye really. We’re fine now about it being someone else’s home.”

Sally and Mark engaged Bruce Mackenzie of Mackenzie Architecture whose redesign included the master bedroom mezzanine and the solid oak “deck level” that defines the living/dining areas downstairs.

Internal windows include the

top-hinged kitchen window that can be closed off while cooking.

The new recycled kauri ceiling, with discreet acoustic panels, has been given a “less rustic” touch from artist Ross Lewis. His work is in the plastered en suite wall and the aged zinc frames around the antique, pressed-steel doors.

Sally and her son Ted, now a furniture designer, collaborated on the woven copper ceiling in the media room that throws artistic reflections onto the walls. Ted designed the timber and steel staircase and Sally designed the cut-out panels.

For her feature wall, Sally enlisted the help of her friend, creative art director Bronwyn

Mackenzie to assemble the canvas-covered books chosen to suit her Cuban-inspired colours. Sally and Bronwyn, who is Bruce’s wife, also wallpapered one bedroom wall with pages from the early 1800s “Practical Builder” handbook.

Of this apartment with its same-level lift and car parks, Ross Hawkins from Ray White says “I have never seen such a high level of attention to detail and quality in every element of this masterpiece. This is like buying a piece of fine artwork and is totally collectable when it comes to property portfolios.”

TESTIMONIALS

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING "We reached out to Ross regarding a listing he had shown us over a year earlier, to explore whether he could approach the owners to see if they would be interested in selling. As a result of his relationship with the owners and his knowledge of the property, a few weeks later we had successfully negotiated the purchase.

We then gave Ross and Caleb our property to sell, via auction, to assist us with linking up settlement dates on the two transactions. The management of viewings and open homes was seamless and they were extremely accommodating and respectful of the challenges families face when putting their home on the market. Ross’s clear communication and engagement enabled the structuring of the two transactions to easily fall in place and we were delighted with the decision to use Ross and Caleb from both a process and outcome.

Their track record speaks for itself and we are delighted with our decision to reconnect with Ross."

- Greg and Rachel

"We first met Ross several years ago and have worked with Ross to purchase and sell our homes. More recently Ross approached us to sell our current property, which we did not have on the market.

Through Ross’s professionalism, communication and outstanding real estate knowledge, he sold our property in a few days.

Ross is highly effective, has an in-depth knoweldge of the real estate market along with many years of experience. Until next time.

Thank you" - Christine and John

We have had a number of dealings with Ross over the years, most particularly in the Edition apartment development. Ross was able to achieve great results for us, he truly understood the nature of the product he was selling and combined this with his vast network to achieve a great sell down. Ross is extremely easy to deal with, is professional and has an eye for a deal. It has been a pleasure working with Ross.

We are extremely fortunate to have Ross market and sell our home. We were always communicated with and the team went over and above. Having to move our action online due to the second lockdown was swift and easy. Chris and I highly recommend Ross and the team at Raywhite. Outstanding service and out come for us and the new home owners.

Ross is without doubt the most professional and prompt agent I have dealt with in my 30 years property experience.

Within 2 days of contacting Ross about our development, he had attracted investor interest and within 2 weeks, contracted $19.49m worth of sales. I cannot speak highly enough about Ross's professionalism, accuracy and dedication. In contrast, we spoke to two other agencies in Queenstown prior to speaking to Ross. Ross had contracted the above sales before the other agencies even replied to us.
