3/40 Gladstone Road, Parnell, Auckland City, Auckland

Step into a world of elegance and style with this two-bedroom, ground-floor apartment in Shangri-La – an iconic cherished Parnell Art Deco gem.

If you’re seeking a home with character, class, and a truly beautiful sense of place, this is it.

Set on a wonderful, leafy street in the golden triangle just moments from Parnell Village, this home offers the perfect blend of tranquility and vibrant city-fringe living. Walk to cafés, galleries, the Auckland Domain, Rose Gardens or the waterfront – every lifestyle luxury is on your doorstep.

Beautifully designed by Arthur Sinclair O’Connor in the 1940’s this apartment exudes warmth and sophistication. Double brick with plaster finishes this building is therefore solid yet graceful. Original Art Deco details of curved walls, high ceilings, and stunning plasterwork frame the living and dining areas. French doors provide direct access to a private landscaped garden. A quiet retreat immersed in morning light. Two serene bedrooms with elegant proportions are bathed with light and have garden views. Such a pleasure to wake to.

With only four residences in the building, Shangri-La offers a sense of privacy and exclusivity that is increasingly rare. Ideal for professionals, downsizers, or those who appreciate elegant living. Cross lease with no body corporate fees.

There is a quiet magic to this space – a feeling of timelessness, elegance, and care. The kind of beauty that doesn’t shout, but whispers.

This little gem is so close to both the Parnell Kindy and Parnell School your child could come home for lunch.
