Retire in Style: Luxury Living at The Avenue Apartments

What an incredible turnout for the Grand Opening of The Avenue Apartments, the newly launched retirement complex at Remuera Gardens! Over 120 guests signed up for exclusive tours of the 61 luxury homes, thoughtfully designed for private, independent retirement living.

The event began at the social pavilion, where Sales Manager Claire Hutchinson warmly welcomed guests and provided an insightful introduction to The Avenue Apartments. This vibrant community hub, where future residents will soon gather over coffee or a glass of wine, set the perfect backdrop for the presentation before guests embarked on their exclusive tours.

From there, the tours commenced, showcasing the three beautifully designed show homes now available for purchase. Guests had the opportunity to explore a spacious 123m² two-bedroom penthouse and a generous 163m² three-bedroom apartment—each bathed in natural light and fitted with high-end appliances and finishes. The stunning interiors, thoughtful layouts, and premium fit-outs left a lasting impression, offering retirees the perfect blend of elegance and comfort.

One of the standout features of these apartments is the elevated 360-degree views of Remuera, enjoyed from private balconies—sometimes multiple! The premium building also integrates seamlessly with a beautiful open atrium area for bowls, and residents are just a short stroll from the meticulously maintained gardens, home to over 150 species of roses and an equal number of camellias.

Minister Brooke van Velden visited the brand-new apartments at the beggining of March to participate in the official inauguration.

Living at The Avenue Apartments means being close to everything that matters most. Ideally located near the heart of the city, residents enjoy easy access to healthcare, shopping, dining, and parks. Whether meeting friends at a local café or taking a peaceful stroll through nearby reserves, Remuera offers the perfect mix of convenience and tranquillity. It’s a welcoming, well-established neighbourhood that fosters a true sense of connection with family, friends, and essential services.

As part of the esteemed Remuera Gardens community, residents of The Avenue Apartments will enjoy access to outstanding facilities, including a heated pool and spa, a well-equipped gym, and an intimate 45-seat tiered cinema—ensuring an active and engaging lifestyle for all.
