These luxurious Brown’s Bay apartments offer the best in beachfront living

With the showroom opening on the 10th of May in Browns Bay, Kauri Residences is an exciting new development set to grace a prominent position on Anzac Road. Architecturally-designed by award-winning Matz Architects and comprising 48 thoughtfully-designed apartments and five luxury penthouses, it is set to become a landmark residential destination within the East Coast Bays.

The project celebrates a truly premium location, just a 300m flat walk from the beach. Browns Bay is one of the largest communities within the picturesque and sought-after Bays – a busy beachside township that offers something for everyone at any given moment. The beachfront’s boardwalk embraces the shore and captures breathtaking northerly views out over the golden sands, deep blue bay and islands of the Hauraki Gulf. It’s perfect for swimming, sailing and boating, or simply sunbathing and strolling along the sand. There are bars and eateries for coffee, breakfast, lunch, cocktails and dinner, plus supermarkets and plenty of shopping options. Also just moments from home, the Sunday markets offer fresh produce and artisan treats.

The team behind the development, NFK Prestige Directors, have a vested interest in Browns Bay and all have personal connections to the area. From visiting friends and family, playing for local sports clubs and frequenting coveted new eateries like 21 Days, this is seen in their commitment to enhancing the community in a positive way.

The level site presents the perfect canvas for the high-end development, with an important and proud heritage as the original Brown family homestead, the first house built in Browns Bay in 1876, and latterly a medical centre and gym for decades. This humble dwelling, constructed of native Kauri weatherboards, is echoed in the choice of materials for its new incarnation. A modern, yet beachy and relaxed, construction palette sees natural timber used widely throughout the building, bringing warmth and complimenting the coastal atmosphere.

This is enhanced with striking black metal, metallic bronze columns and concrete, creating one of the area’s most captivating and recognisable buildings. The layout sees five levels of residential, complemented with four ground floor commercial/ retail stores. There’s a mixture of 1 Bedroom, 2 Bedroom and 3 Bedroom homes and some have the flexibility of being designed to suit the purchasers needs for a study or larger living areas.

Inside, generous 2.6m ceilings – 3m in the penthouses – and full height glazing to the north, east and west ensures the homes feel light, spacious and open, with panoramic views of the ocean from large decks and courtyards. Each penthouse features cedar hot tubs, double-sided fires facing the living spaces and outdoor entertaining decks with timber soffits.

All apartments feature exquisite Oak flooring through living spaces, with spacious kitchens an elegant, relaxed focal point, featuring Corian benchtops and Fisher & Paykel appliances. The same aesthetic is reflected in the bathrooms, with European tapware and customised sophisticated tiling to walls and floors. Owners have the ability to tailor the design scheme to suit their personal taste, creating a truly bespoke residential environment.

Planting throughout the building has been carefully considered and includes a lattice of winding vines strung through the rear courtyard, creating a lush green outlook from behind the apartments. On-site parking is located behind the retail units at street level, along with secure bike storage. Apartments come with the opportunity to purchase a secure storage locker accessible off the lift lobby.

Showcasing captivating design and innovative architecture suited to its incredible location, Kauri Residences presents the perfect lock-up-and-leave option for discerning purchasers who love Browns Bay.
