Brooklyn
Back to Listing ResultsBrooklyn Beauty with Contemporary Charm
Undoubtedly the most gorgeous villa of its size in Brooklyn, and possibly the whole of Wellington, maximising the site and the sun to create a light filled home with fabulous proportions and a wonderful combination of retained character and clever architectural renovations.
From its perch above the roadside, this glorious home looks out over the Brooklyn hills and revels in the Wellington sunshine. Light bounces of the gorgeous coloured panes of glass in the front porch that shelters guests to the front door. Inside, architect led renovations and historical charm collide in a heavenly fashion. High stud walls and expansive windows draw the light in, with sunshine reflecting off the contrasting tones of the pale walls, warm joinery and wooden floors.
The open plan kitchen, living and dining spans the length of the house with easy access to the front deck and rear garden, for fantastic indoor outdoor flow. The master bedroom has French doors through to the front deck, ensuite and a walk in wardrobe. A spacious second double and a single (or home office) together with a superb family bathroom complete the picture. The outdoor living spaces make the most of the sunshine, and are designed to satisfy the gardener or entertainer alike.
A sought after city fringe location, with everything the village of Brooklyn has to offer and Wellington city, right on your doorstep.
Step onto the spacious front porch and admire the stunning coloured glass windows, that shelter you from the elements as you open the front door, to this beautiful home.
