There is no other home in Lower Hutt quite like Avalon. The 72 apartments for sale and for rent are studios, one bedroom and two bedroom residences that follow the tower's original structural rhythm. Broad windows pull in daylight and open the rooms to the valley, river and surrounding ranges.

The windows run wide, so the valley, hills and changing light become part of daily life. Kitchens sit quietly along the wall. Living spaces stay open. Timber brings warmth, darker joinery adds contrast, and the original concrete character is never far away.
Apartment photographs show a staged two bedroom corner display home. Furniture is not included, and finishes and outlooks vary by apartment. The arrival terrace is an artist impression.
Every Avalon home follows an approved interior scheme, with finishes chosen to sit comfortably beside the tower's concrete character and the valley light.
The specification reflects the approved interior design scheme and may change if a product becomes unavailable. Confirm the finishes for each home in its sale or tenancy documentation.
Avalon belongs to Lower Hutt. The tower stands close to Te Awa Kairangi, surrounded by generous green space and everyday recreation. It offers the outlook and presence of a landmark, with room to breathe at ground level.More about living in Avalon, Lower Hutt →

Rent to Buy is a proposed pathway that connects renting an Avalon apartment with owning one. It is taking expressions of interest now. Final terms, eligibility and participating homes are still to be confirmed, and it is not an offer of finance or a guaranteed purchase.
Studios, one bedroom and two bedroom apartments suit first-home buyers, downsizers, investors and anyone who wants a low-maintenance, lock-up-and-leave home in the Hutt Valley. Investors can ask for a rental appraisal on any released apartment.
The project drawings show 64 standard car parks and two accessible parks on site. Parking is allocated separately and is not assumed for every apartment, so check the parking position shown for each released home.
The ground floor has a café, a residents lounge and a gym, with sheltered outdoor spaces and landscaped grounds. The building also has two lifts serving every level, a shared laundry, cycle storage, a mail room, fire sprinklers and secure electronic access.
The tower was part of the Avalon Television Centre, the first purpose-built television facility in New Zealand. TV One launched from the site in 1975, and programmes watched across the country were made there for decades. The original concrete tower now holds the 72 apartments.
Avalon is not trying to imitate an inner-city apartment building. It offers something rare in Lower Hutt: a familiar landmark remade for residents, with the river, parks and valley outlook woven into daily life. Residents arrive through landscaped grounds, meet in the lounge, train in the gym and step outside into the wider Hutt Valley.
