Iconic Kelburn Home with Unrivalled Views

3 Rawhiti Terrace is a rare find in Wellington.

Built in 1903 for the Kelburn and Karori Tramway Co. this property carries a rich history. The home has since been reconfigured to maximise the view and create the seamless indoor-outdoor flow you'll see today.

Further details include: • Large open plan living, dining and kitchen spaces • Three double bedrooms, all with storage • Generous main bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and spacious ensuite • The turret room upstairs makes a great reading space or office. It is a fantastic place for watching sunrises, sunsets and fireworks and has been a favourite place for grandchildren to sleep • Ample off-street parking for guests • Established cottage garden with vegetable boxes and glasshouse • Central heating for year-round warmth Located just steps to the top of Wellington's iconic Cable Car, this location offers unbeatable access to the CBD.

Seller's review

Outstanding - trustworthy, informed and responsive

We chose Sam as our agent because of the depth of his market knowledge, his enthusiasm and ultimately because he was friendly, down to earth and we felt we trusted him. We were right! Sam gave us good advice leading up to the house going on the market and even made himself available when we were unable to meet a tradesperson. He listened to our concerns, and gave us wise thoughts on marketing. Throughout the process Sam's communication with all of us was excellent - he gave us plenty of notice of viewings, and regular feedback on potential purchasers' responses as well as any issues. He followed through on everything he said he would, and we know he worked hard throughout the tender process. Sam has continued to help us with post-sale tasks including liasing between us and the seller. While we didn;t see much of Ben because Sam was so attentive, it was great that he had Ben as a back up - it made life easier when purchasers wanted building inspector/tradespeople to come to the house. We appreciated all the Tommy's agents who took people through the house and their support. Overall, Sam did an outstanding job, he was a good sounding-board and we would definitely use him again and recommend him to other vendors. Thanks Sam and Ben.
