Step back in time while enjoying modern living in this beautifully preserved slice of history. Built in the 1860s and recognised as one of Thorndon’s ‘Notable Homes’, this charming cottage has been modernised and enhanced with no expense spared.
Behind the timeless façade lies a thoughtfully renovated interior featuring an open-plan kitchen and living space, a separate double bedroom, a usable loft space (handy for storage or guest accommodation) and a spacious modern bathroom down the small hallway.
Modern upgrades over the years include wiring, plumbing, wall insulation and foundation improvements, with the current owners adding extensive double glazing, a new roof, skylights and fresh paint. It all adds up to a property that’s had everything renovated to the latest standard, whilst fully maintain its authentic heritage charm.
Situated directly opposite Premier House and just a minute’s stroll to the Tinakori Village shops and cafes, this is central city living at its most convenient. With the CBD, supermarket, and motorway North all within easy reach, the location could not be better.
Whether you’re seeking a city bolt-hole, boutique AirBnB opportunity, or a permanent home for one or two, 251 Tinakori Road offers something truly special – a rare piece of Wellington’s history - all ready for its next chapter.
