With street appeal in abundance, this arts and craft style home makes a huge statement with its impressive off-street driveway and sizeable home perched solidly on the high end of the street. With mature gardens and a private front door located strategically alongside the home, it’s the perfect entrance to await family and friends. The grand portions continue inside with wall-lined timber, a timber banister and a carpeted staircase connecting the sizeable entrance and first-floor landing spaces.

Simply put, stunning. A magnificent space to host in or relax after a busy day at work. The sun’s rays sneak through from the sunroom lighting up the room, and during the cooler months one can enjoy the warmth of the gas heating while curled up on the couch watching their favourite TV show or being consumed by their favourite book.

A grand room, with the options of opening up to the lounge or closing off. Strategically located between the kitchen and lounge room areas. Complete with views out over Wellington, gas heating and original timber lined walls and built in cupboards. This is a super spot to join the family together at mealtimes or to oversee the kids doing their homework or reading while the adults are in the kitchen.

A recently modernised, clean, functional, and user-friendly kitchen with views out over the back garden and beyond. This designated spacious area enables family and friends to mingle with ease as the chef of the home whips up another culinary delight for all to enjoy. A special touch is the kitchen to dining room cupboard/servery– what a way for the chef to share their delights with all those hungrily waiting at the table!

1. Located downstairs for ease of access, resides the sizable master bedroom. Great triple wardrobe space. An added bonus is the adjoining sunroom connecting seamlessly off the north facing wall – which depending on how you wish to configure it, could enlarge the bedroom space twofold. A luxury not many are able to experience.

2. An ample-sized second bedroom, complete with two floor to ceiling built-in wardrobes. A west-facing full-length window ensures oodles of morning sun to help kick start your day.

3. Bedroom number 3 is well placed off the upstairs hallway and boasts original impressive high skirting boards and double opening doors to the wardrobe.

4. Was previously configured as an ironing and reading room, we’re not sure how any work was done in here as the views out over the Harbour and Wellington city are simply jaw dropping. Great shelving space, a lengthy nook for storage and three windows to track the sun all day long. Everyone will want this room!

5. Currently configured as an office area – this versatile room has several options and benefits. It could be a fifth bedroom, study, library area or quiet space – north facing, light, bright and spacious.

1. Conveniently located upstairs in the home’s most central position for ease of access from the upper floor bedrooms. Complete with basin and mirror, shower over bath and two towel rails, one of which is heated – plenty of room for the family’s towels to dry. There is also a separate upstairs WC which ensures there’s no queue for the bathroom in the morning!

2. Conveniently located downstairs, servicing the master bedroom resides a modernised shower space. Pleasingly, there’s a second separate downstairs WC for family and friends visiting this grand home.

Strategically located off the kitchen area and cleverly shares its space with the downstairs bathroom. Complete with tub, and separate spaces for the washing machine and dryer. Great ease of access for transferring the washing to the clothesline in summer, or on the drying rack in the garage during the cooler months.

Seek the sun, or shelter in the shade – there’s something for everyone to enjoy here, including eye-capturing panoramic CBD views of the highest order out over the Wellington Harbour towards Oriental Parade and the airport. Enjoy basking in the spacious, front-of-house lawn and garden area or watching the kids playing on the sizeable back lawn area. As the property is fully fenced, it’s a safe space for kids and pets alike.

This property benefits from a large garage with automatic door opening; there’s parking for several cars on the driveway which runs parallel alongside the home.

North facing to capture lashings of all day sun, resides a full width of the home sunroom. With three-way access from the master bedroom, lounge and out on to the front garden, it’s an impressive space with multiple living options.

As can be expected with a home of this era and size, there’s lots of internal cupboard spaces dotted around all of which provide a plethora of storage options for even the most enthusiastic of collectors. Under the home, in the garage and attic, are all viable options too.

Cashmere Avenue School (Years 1-6), St Benedict’s School (Years 1-8), Raroa Intermediate School (Years 7&8), Onslow College (Years 9-13).
