Two worlds combined seamlessly
Enjoy the best of both in this quintessential Wellington home. Originally built in 1930, the charm of its era of construction shines through, you just can't build houses like this anymore! This includes its solid native timber construction and cararra ceilings. While the modern comforts add an air of 2020's into the picture. The upgrades include but are not limited to insulation in the ceiling, underfloor and many walls, uPVC reinforced double glazing, energy efficient ducted heat pump, electric triple glazed skylight in kitchen with auto rain sensor.
Elevated for splendid views and solidly seated, your very own vista over Lyall Bay and the Cook Straight will be appreciated from the comfort of your spacious lounge room. You can undertake your own surf (or dolphin) report by simply glancing out the window. Gorgeous hardwood floors run throughout the entire upper level including the entrance foyer that contains its very own bench seat. The well-appointed kitchen is positioned centrally for maximum entertaining and is open plan with dining and a connection to living area.
There is one double bedroom and a single bedroom on the main floor, and a large double bedroom downstairs with ample storage throughout the house.
Unique for much of Wellington is ample parking. Off street parking is provided via a single garage (that just happens to be part of a bit of recent Wellington history with its involvement in the origins of Garage Project beer) as well as extra off street for two vehicles. An EV charging station is already built in! While a bus stop is only a minutes' walk away at the bottom of the street.
In 2021 a concept design for an additional home was developed. The owner is happy to make plans available and any purchaser is welcome to do due diligence to ascertain the feasibility of these plans.
Zoned for both Houghton Valley and Lyall Bay Schools as well as Evans Bay Intermediate and Wellington East Girls College. Stroll to Maranui for breakfast or Parrotdog for a beer. This is the life!
