Barrington - it's all hands on deck!


The show space at Barrington is now open and the homes are selling fast.

One recent misty Saturday morning it was 'all hands on deck' as the show space came together at 554 Great North Road.


Signage had to be hung.


We don't envy these boys having to clamber on interesting rooftops. At least the rain held off even if the clouds did look ominous.


The homes had to be marked out 'on the ground' and developer, Craig Kells was just the man for the job. Plans, tape measure and spray paint in hand, he's made sure that when you're on site you can see exactly where your new home will sit.




We're all pleased at how the show space has turned out, so make sure you come on down and talk to Virgil about which of the beautiful homes on Barrington Road will suit your needs. There are also some homes with optional retail/office space facing out onto Great North Road.




There's car parking on site and the show space is open Saturday and Sunday 3-4pm or if you prefer to stay away from the weekend rush, Tuesday and Thursday 1-2pm. But don't leave it too long or you might miss out.


Check out the website today and give Virgil a call.

Demolition Underway at Pinnacle Apartments


Get in now before the showroom has gone! 

... and low pre-construction prices end!


At the end of last month, Developer Martin Kells signed the building contract with Andrew Burden, a director of selected builder, Summit Construction.



This means that deconstruction (aka demolition) of the building's outer skin has begun. The demolition process will slowly work it's way up to the 8th floor, where Virgil and his team are located in the display suite.

Now is the time to get yourself over to Level 8, 18 Saint Martins Lane, Auckland to take a last look at the views and the display suite before, as Virgil so aptly puts it, "I have to parachute out of what's left of the window!"


This is also the last chance to secure low pre-construction prices. Virgil doesn't want to hear that you're upset because the price of the apartment you want to purchase has gone up.


Why should you be purchasing an apartment at the Pinnacle? We've discussed this before here and here but let's just remind ourselves of some of the other great reasons the Pinnacle is the place to be:

  1. More glass to wall ratio than most apartments on the market
  2. Freehold unit title with only four apartments per floor
  3. All apartments have balconies with surprising views from the harbour to the Waitakeres
  4. Superior exterior cladding with floor-to-ceiling double glazing and opening windows
  5. Every apartment is climate-controlled: maintaining a pleasant 19 degrees centigrade year round
  6. There's a second bathroom option with some apartments
  7. New layouts giving larger floor areas. All bedroom and living rooms face out to the light and view. There's no internal bedrooms
  8. Car park included in the purchase price
  9. 10% deposit, with the balance on completion which is approximately July 2016!
See you there, before Virgil has to parachute out of the showroom!
