Residential -
Only a few residences remain at Jimmy’s Point, the crown jewel of Launch Bay’s waterfront precinct in Hobsonville Point, offering a final chance to claim a coastal lifestyle in one of Auckland’s most loved and liveable new communities.
Backed by NZX-listed developer Winton, the sell-down of the boutique building of just 30 apartments with car parks has been a resounding success, with all but a few now sold.
Bayleys Residential, Development and Apartment Sales specialist Kirsten Bishop says Jimmy’s Point enjoys a prime waterfront position and has fast become a haven for active downsizers and early retirees seeking low-maintenance living without compromising on luxury, location, or community.
“Residents here are young at heart,” she says. “They’ve left behind large, demanding properties in favour of something more effortless, but they’re not slowing down. They’re buying e-bikes, hopping on the ferry to the city for dinner, and genuinely embracing the best years of their lives.”
Availability is now limited to a final few premium residences in the waterfront community, including a generous three-bedroom penthouse with sweeping 270-degree harbour views, a ground-floor two-bedroom residence with an exclusive-use garden, and a north-facing two-bedroom apartment capturing beautiful views on second floor.
Priced from $1.225 million, these homes represent the final boarding call for those wanting to join the exclusive new community.
Perched at the tip of a peninsula and wrapped by the Waitematā Harbour, Bishop says Jimmy’s Point is the final residential offering in Winton’s master planned Launch Bay precinct.
“Designed by award-winning architects Isthmus, the building blends effortlessly with its coastal surroundings, with a distinctive terracotta façade that nods to Hobsonville’s heritage as a hub for brickworks and aviation.
“Inside, the homes are finished to an exceptional standard, with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame never-to-be-built-out sea views, natural materials that complement the environment, and layouts that maximise both space and privacy.
“Secure basement parking, additional storage, pet-friendly policies, and a responsive Body Corporate ensure an easy, future-focused lifestyle.”
Bishop adds that it’s not just the views that impress, but the sense of community. “Residents gather for a drink, visit the Oval with pets and family, walk the coastal trail, and enjoy an abundance of quality amenities walking distance from their homes.
“More than anything, it’s the residents’ feedback that speaks volumes. Many have told us their move here has made a real difference to their wellbeing and day-to-day enjoyment of life.”
Five minutes from Catalina Bay’s waterfront dining, Farmer’s Market, and the 30-minute ferry to downtown Auckland, Jimmy’s Point offers all the rewards of a city-fringe lifestyle with the relaxed energy of a coastal village.
“Our residents have come from some of Auckland’s most desirable suburbs, looking for a lifestyle that offers more freedom and less upkeep. What draws them here is best-in-class quality - where architectural detail, serene coastal connection, and community spirit merge beautifully by design. It’s a change that genuinely elevates their quality of life, and that’s hard to put a price on in your golden years.”
