Character Cottage + Sunny Section for Development

After more than three decades in the hands of its devoted owners, this much-loved railway cottage is ready for its next chapter. A move out of Wellington creates an exciting opportunity for a lucky new owner to enjoy, restore, and make the most of this iconic home and its expansive sun-soaked section. Steeped in character and offering plenty of scope, the home in its current layout features:

• A separate formal living space or TV snug
• Generous living and dining area with a cosy heat pump for year-round comfort
• Interconnecting kitchen with a lovely outlook across the section
• Three bedrooms-perfect for families, professionals, or those working from home
• A spacious, lined studio offering versatile use-currently set up as a sleeping, living, and work-from-home space
• Drive-on access to a large double garage plus a garden shed for extra storage

Sitting on an impressive nearly 700sqm site, the real magic lies in the opportunity for future development. With the character-filled home positioned towards the street frontage, the generous, sun-drenched rear section presents a range of possibilities: Extend and enhance the existing home, build a second dwelling for family, rental income, or resale or explore potential subdivision options.

This sought-after suburb offers a warm community atmosphere, boutique shops, cafés, a library, playgrounds, and fantastic access to outdoor adventures, including Mount Kaukau's trails. Highly regarded schools and childcare options add to the appeal, and with the CBD just minutes away-four quick train stops-you'll love the convenience of city living with a suburban sanctuary to come home to.

Opportunities like this don't come around often. If you're looking for an iconic slice of Wellington history with the potential to create something truly special, get in touch with our team today!

(*Buyers are advised to conduct their own due diligence regarding development potential.)
