Wow, this home must be seen to be believed - the views are spectacular looking straight out over the city (spot the stadium and Beehive) to the expansive harbour and beyond!
This 3brm/3bath plus large living property was architecturally designed in the 70's and has been held within the same family ever since.…and you can see why! Such a versatile property can meet a range of needs, whether its entertaining, accommodating family or guests, a home business or an income. Our owner resides overseas, so this special property is now surplus and will be sold - be quick! Attention professional couples, those who work from home, entertainers and extended families - we've found 'the one'. Upstairs is a lovely 2-bed, 2-bath and 2-living (incl. a study area) - and downstairs has a fully self-contained large studio, with its own separate kitchen and bathroom.
You'll see the thoughtful design as you enter the home via a large entranceway and move upstairs to the mezzanine with it's full built-in desk and a sunny sitting area - working from home will be a pleasure as it even has its own deck!
The kitchen is modern with a large pantry and looks over towards the hills. You'll love preparing platters while your guests enjoy the inset cocktail bar - ready for a gin and tonic anyone? And if you love entertaining, the dining area seats ten comfortably.
The living is configured as two separate living areas with indoor outdoor flow to a deck to enjoy the views - BBQ's anyone? The bedrooms are good sizes and having two bathrooms makes life easy. And how about another harbour outlook from the master!
Now let's move downstairs to the fully kitted out studio with its own separate flat access. Think: older parents, an older teenager needing their own space, family or guests, or a business run from home (hairdresser, music teacher, consultant, the list goes on). Or of course an income stream if you want one as an Airbnb or rental. Great to pay the mortgage down faster!
The studio also has access to the large partially covered patio, again with harbour views - just perfect for entertaining or a deck chair. There's a garden area for fresh veges and fruit trees. Plus there's a powered cellar under the patio where the owner stored wine. Add to this a large carport, mostly double glazing, tonnes of storage, a workshop room and separate laundry.
An outlook like this with so many extras is rare in Wellington. Just a short commute to town and the Botanic Gardens, and walking distance to Northland School and the Northland Village. Plus you have a walking track close by. A Builders and LIM Report have been ordered. Homes with a studio like this do not sit around. Call Leonie & Steve to view now!
