Property details

Historic Character, Modern Comfort

Positioned within the iconic circa 1910 Fire Station Apartments, this first floor residence offers a rare opportunity to secure a unique apartment that blends heritage charm with modern comfort. Located in the highly sought after Thorndon/Pipitea precinct, it places you in one of Wellington's most historic and well connected neighbourhoods.

The apartment displays the craftsmanship of its era. Original timber floorboards, elegant architraves, classic panelled doors, and beautifully proportioned timber windows create a warm, light filled environment. These character features give the home a distinctive personality seldom found in modern developments.

The living area provides a welcoming space to relax or entertain, with high ceilings and abundant natural light enhancing the openness. The adjoining kitchen features modern cabinetry, quality appliances and a practical layout that supports everyday living. The bathroom has also been improved, offering contemporary comforts.

Two bedrooms continue the theme of charm and tranquillity. Each room offers flexibility for professionals, couples, downsizers, or those working from home, providing peaceful retreats that feel both comfortable and refined.

A standout feature is the private balcony, an uncommon luxury in heritage apartments. This inviting outdoor space is ideal for morning coffee.

The location adds exceptional convenience. Parliament, Victoria University's Pipitea Campus, Wellington Railway Station, New World Thorndon, cafes, restaurants and excellent transport links are all just moments away, making daily life effortless.
