'The Beeches' on Braithwaite
Here's a rare chance to secure this elegant Gray Young-designed private sanctuary located on a premium corner site moments from Marsden Village in city end Karori.
The original 1930s charisma is evident as you step inside the gate, past the mature historic beech trees, and into a home with heritage appeal and a delightful outlook. The ambiance and grace of the Edwardian period are reflected throughout.
Modernised for contemporary living yet still retaining the considerable charm of its creation over 80 years ago with features such as native timber flooring, paneling, and large double sash windows. The spacious living area boasts a stunning fireplace and a glorious high stud, leading through to a second living space which flows into the open plan dining and modern kitchen. From the lounge you are invited out to the elevated and sun-drenched terrace where you can unwind and enjoy the leafy views across Northland, Mount Victoria and beyond. Mature plantings, citrus trees, climbing roses, camelias and hydrangeas sit amongst the enchanted walled garden.
Upstairs, each of the four double bedrooms boasts large windows and built-in wardrobing and the added bonus of an additional living room offers valuable space for the family. The spacious master bedroom comes complete with an ensuite and gorgeous view of the established grounds and Wellington's leafy suburbs. In addition, there is a wonderful study to retreat to, complete with fireplace and space for a library.
The location is second to none, being zoned for Wellington College and Wellington Girls and within walking distance to local schools, cafes, bus stops and shops, and located amongst blue-chip residences.
