Some homes just have it — that quality you feel the moment you walk through the door. This three-bedroom character villa unit is one of them.
Spread across multiple levels, it's the kind of home that reveals itself slowly: original rimu floors that glow in the morning light, soaring ceilings, a stained glass window catching colour on the stair landing, & arched sash windows framing views across the city to the hills beyond.
The second bedroom is something special — a loft space tucked beneath a skylight, reached via a wall ladder. On the way up, a hidden gem: an original leadlight window on the landing, the kind of detail that makes you stop and look.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully modernised — white gloss cabinetry, stone-look benchtops, dishwasher, microwave & fridge/freezer included — while keeping the warmth of the original timber underfoot. The bathroom is a clean, contemporary fit-out with a curved glass shower, heated towel rail, & washer/dryer included. No laundromat runs required.
Three bedrooms give you genuine flexibility — a home office, a guest room, or simply the breathing room that city living so rarely offers.
Then there's the deck. Sweeping views across to the old Dominion Museum, the War Memorial & out to the sea — the kind of outlook you'd pay extra for in any Wellington apartment, yours here to enjoy with a morning coffee or an evening glass of something cold.
Step outside & Wellington is yours. Cuba Street's cafés, bars & weekend markets are a flat walk away (we won't pretend the hill home is nothing, but consider it a free gym membership). The CBD, hospital precinct & university are all within easy reach.
This is a home for people who appreciate that character isn't just a word in a listing — it's the difference between a place you rent & a place you actually live in.
