Showcasing the height of new luxury construction in some of the world’s most sought after locations, let’s explore an exclusive new development from our worldwide network.
Auckland, New Zealand | Ross Hawkins & Jason Gaddes, New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty
Apartments at The International are generously sized and beautifully appointed. Every apartment has an exceptional ceiling height and feature spectacular city, park, or sea views. They are contemporary and timeless – showcasing the use of materials that have been chosen for both their beauty and durability – natural stone, custom timber cabinetry and imported wide-boarded timber flooring.
Surrounding The International is a street of heritage buildings, established trees, and a sense of calm. The grounds of Old Government House and Albert Park, with century-old trees and walking paths, are just meters away, while the surrounding streets are filled by apartments with some of the highest residential resale values of any area in the central city.
Jasmax has crafted each individual space around the view and the indoor-outdoor flow, creating apartments that are simply unrivaled in this country. They are open-plan, expansive spaces offering the kind of layout and sophisticated living more usually found in well-designed standalone houses, allowing their owners to capitalise on the benign Auckland climate. Each apartment is loaded with up-to-the-minute technology and building systems. All apartments are fully air-conditioned and centrally heated, with heat pumps ducted into every living & bedroom. Insulation easily exceeds the highest energy efficiency requirements of the current building code, and all ceiling lighting will be high-efficiency LED. They’re also whisper quiet, thanks to double-glazed acoustic glass with inter-tenancy walls that also exceed the current building code.
The International is alluring city living at its finest. Completing the living spaces is a generous list of building amenities. On the podium, there is a large outdoor swimming pool and spa. Next to the lobby is a beautifully designed and furnished café, which transforms into a lounge after dark, run by the Pondarosa Group.
With the passing of the Overseas Investment Act of 2018, the purchasing of properties in New Zealand became limited to residents or citizens; The International however, was granted an exception by the New Zealand government, allowing foreign buyers in on this incredible opportunity.
