| 53 Launch Bay the star of Hobsonville The Launch Bay Precinct includes apartments, townhouses and free-standing homes open to magnificent harbour or district views. Winton Group & Mike Greer Homes: Launch Bay Townhouses T T Richard Loader DEVELOPMENT Launch Bay really is the shining jewel in Hobsonville’s crown, delivering a range of residential options to suit a diversity of lifestyle needs and all within a thoughtfully master planned environment that embraces the spirit of community on the edge of Catalina Bay. The idyllic harbourfront neighbourhood welcomes community and new life to its shores. Sitting immediately adjacent to the Catalina Bay precinct, the location offers close proximity to excellent cafés and restaurants, great shopping, Little Creatures Brewery and a fabulous weekend farmers market. “You also have the ferry terminal there as well, so in terms of convenience and getting into downtown Auckland, it really is the best spot in Hobsonville,” says Kade Motley, Development Manager for Winton, the development company bringing its vision for Launch Bay to life. “Across the Launch Bay Precinct is a rich landscape of apartments, townhouses and free-standing homes open to magnificent harbour or district views and ideal northern sun.” The historic landscaped Oval forms a stunning green centrepiece while heritage officer houses have been beautifully converted, sitting along the existing hangar buildings which are to be restored and incorporated into the contemporary new precinct. “The twenty-five high-end and beautifully appointed townhouses were completed in June of last year, and all but five have been sold,” says Kade. “The architect for the townhouses was Auckland based Paul Brown & Associates, who specialise in townhouses right through to landmark high rise apartment developments. “The townhouses are around 180-190sqm and include four bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and internally accessed double garaging.” Townhouse typologies include a block of two-storey houses with a vertical timber cladding, while another two blocks include three-storey houses with brick and timber cladding combination. Kade says Residents will enjoy the considered and generous spaces in homes that are built to last. “We chose Mike Greer South Auckland as our builder because of its reputation for building a quality product and the ability to build at scale. The townhouses are smart designs with a focus on quality materials and a great fitout. The majority of the townhouses were sold off plan, with two currently on the market priced at $1.295 million, and the other $1.395 million. Of the twenty townhouses that have already sold there has been a diverse range of buyers from young families, downsizers, and empty nesters. That these are all four bedroom townhouses with generous living spaces in a truly fabulous location means there is very wide appeal.” Also within the Launch Bay precinct is the ongoing development of Jimmy’s Point, a five-level freehold apartment building with basement parking right on the water’s edge. Designed by Winton in collaboration with Isthmus, every detail of Jimmy’s Point has been meticulously chosen to create a fresh and relaxing atmosphere. Comprising of 30 deluxe apartments, Jimmy’s point offers a range of one to three bedroom options, with views that that face north towards the water and capture sunsets and sunrises. “A future stage will include our luxury later living project, Northbrook Launch Bay, that will include a combination of 140 premium homes and 40 care units along with a wealth of leisure facilities to connect to the wider community.” From kitchen design to installation, Misco Joinery offer the complete package.
