A penthouse apartment in The International residential complex in Auckland CBD has sold for $15.3 million, according to its developer.
"In September, one buyer purchased the top floor penthouse of The International for a contract price of $15.3 million, making it the highest value apartment sale in New Zealand," said a spokeswoman for Gary Groves' Sanctuary Group.

The apartment is being created on the top level of the ex-Fonterra building at 9 Princes St and the spokeswoman said the penthouse would be huge at 678sq m, about three times the size of many suburban houses.
That would comprise 562sq m of indoor floor space and 116sq m of terrace or deck.
