59 Wairere Road is more than a home – it offers a rare combination of history, scale, and timeless elegance, perfect for everyday family living or grand entertaining.

For the first time in 23 years, this five-bedroom home is on the market – a rare opportunity to secure one of Belmont’s most iconic properties. Set on nearly 5,900sqm of landscaped English-inspired gardens, the 1926 residence was once home to the Todd family and reflects the architectural influence of William Gray Young and Ernst Plischke. Thoughtfully updated, it remains sensitive to the original design while providing a practical and welcoming environment for modern living.

Privately located behind wrought-iron gates at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the 410sqm home blends timeless character with contemporary comfort. A grand entrance hall with polished native timber floors leads to a formal lounge with open fireplace and window seat. The well-appointed German Alno kitchen with “coffee station” flows to a casual dining area, while the Plischke-designed floor-to-ceiling glass family living space streams in sunshine and brings the outdoors in, creating bright and inviting living. Gas central heating runs throughout, and additional features include a wine cellar, Italian Carrera marble-tiled powder room, and reading alcove.

Upstairs, the main suite features floor-to-ceiling glazing, garden views, and a private ensuite, while additional double bedrooms offer flexible family living. A marble bathroom and separate w.c. are thoughtfully appointed. A sunroom provides a bright, versatile space to relax, read, or enjoy the garden outlook. Windows throughout capture sweeping views across the Hutt Valley and harbour.

The grounds are equally impressive. The expansive, sheltered lawn bathed in sunshine provides space for play, relaxation, and entertaining, while terraced cottage gardens—including delphiniums, daffodils, irises, and dahlias—add charm and seasonal colour. Winding pathways through pockets of native bush create tranquil spots to sit, unwind, and enjoy the natural surroundings. The main gardens feature camellias, roses, pohutukawas, rhododendrons, magnolias, a graceful weeping elm, and nikau palms, combining structure, colour, and serenity to create a private garden sanctuary.

Six-car garaging and generous off-street parking with easy drive-on access provide exceptional practicality. And with Wellington CBD only around 20 minutes away, convenience pairs perfectly with privacy.
