Overview

City central - iconic villa

Almost twenty years ago, our vendor followed her heart in search of the perfect character home - within walking distance of the city, complete with bay windows, soaring ceilings, native timbers… and a lemon tree. She found it all at 69 Wellesley Road, the iconic early 1900’s villa fondly known as one of The Five Ladies. Proudly lined up in a row, these five homes remain a striking reminder of a bygone era - rich in history and brimming with character. Bathed in morning sun through the extensive glasswork, this villa has been a source of endless joy. Winters have been warmed by the pyroclassic fireplace in the truly enormous living room (which also makes a magnificent master bedroom), while the flexible layout has proved invaluable over the years - with options for three or four bedrooms, open-plan kitchen and dining, large bathroom, and even space for an office nook or additional storage. It’s a home that has easily adapted to family life, generating income, and even business ventures, often all at once, combining the large and functional spaces with superb proximity to the city. Complete with a private backyard, this is a much-loved home with many more stories to tell. While time and fresh vision will be needed to bring out its next chapter, the authentic character and heart remain firmly in place. Our vendor parts with 69 Wellesley Road, with gratitude for the years spent here, whilst in pursuit of another love. The chance to write the next story now rests with you - a rare opportunity to secure a piece of Napier’s history in a central setting.
