Mid-Century Frederick Ost

Designed by architect Frederick Ost, this 1960s home captures everything we love about mid-century design - light, space, and breathtaking views. Large double-glazed windows frame an ever-changing panorama stretching across Wellington, the Hutt Valley and beyond, creating a stunning backdrop at every hour of the day and night. With drive-on access, multiple off-street parks and near-flat entry, this is easy living in an elevated setting and East facing for excellent year-round sun. The approach to the home is through an established woodland garden, a great place to enjoy visiting birdlife from Zealandia.

Currently configured in two separate parts, simply reinstating a staircase would return this back into a four bedroom family home.

Bright and welcoming, with an open plan kitchen flowing seamlessly into the dining area and a super sunny conservatory - perfect as a second living space. Downstairs offers excellent flexibility, with its own entrance, kitchenette and two double bedrooms - ideal for extended family or guests, work from home space or short term accommodation.

Further details include:

• Mostly single-level living on the main floor

• Sunny conservatory providing additional living space

• Three double bedrooms and two bathrooms

• Summer sun at dawn and dusk

• Split-level layout with potential to reinstate internal staircase from the original plans

• Separate downstairs living with kitchenette

• Double glazing, heat pump and insulation for year-round comfort

• Modern roof

• Drive-on access with multiple off-street car parks

• Positioned to maximise sun and spectacular views

Located in Highbury, you're just moments from Kelburn Village with its cafés, shops and everyday conveniences, along with easy access to the CBD, Victoria University and public transport options. Nearby walking tracks, Zealandia and the Botanic Garden add to the lifestyle appeal, offering a balance of nature and city living right on your doorstep.

If you're looking for a peaceful, leafy setting with birdlife, sun and a truly special outlook, this is one not to miss.

If you'd like a lift to view this property or want more information, contact Sam Newble or Ben Ryan today. Building report and LIM available after inspection.
