1/29 St Benedicts Street, Eden Terrace, Auckland City, Auckland

Tightly held for 20 years and hidden in plain sight on the city fringe awaits a heritage loft apartment that is truly one-of-a-kind. Constructed in 1886 as a purpose-built bottling factory for Daniel Arkett, this extraordinary heritage conversion is the character space creatives dream of but rarely find.

As you step through timber French doors, you’ll discover an industrial artefact that whispers the story of more than a century. Set across three levels and enveloped in all-day sun, every turn you take is an architectural wonder.

Soaring ceilings and sash windows invite sunlight to illuminate every texture of raw warehouse character – exposed brick, timber floors and dramatic timber beams. A retired brick fireplace anchors the expansive living, which spills onto an elevated balcony drenched in north sun.

Worlds collide in the kitchen with contemporary matte-black cabinetry, stone benchtop, European appliances, and generous pantry space. A dedicated laundry room, powder room, open space ideal for a home office and super-sized under stair storage are the cherry on top.

As you ascend the home unfolds like a gallery, each level its own private master-style suite. The upper level embraces west sun and sky through bi-folding windows. Boasting two walk-in wardrobes — one with a skylight offering flexibility as a study or creative workspace. The mid-level loft captures the charm of the of the original factory with a modern twist, featuring another skylight and bespoke sliding timber shutters.

Complete with a secure carport, this is urban living with soul — a opportunity to own a genuine piece of Auckland’s architectural past, thoughtfully adapted for modern life.

Located across the road from Benediction Café and perfectly positioned on the city fringe. Moments from everything - Ponsonby, K Road, the CBD, Kingsland Village, Newmarket, and motorway links.

In walking distance to Auckland University and AUT, and zoned for Auckland Grammar School and Auckland Girls Grammar School, making it an exceptionally well-located home for professionals and families alike.
