AUCTION: Friday 12th April 2024 at 12.00pm, Harcourts Wellington City Office (unless sold prior) Buyer's budget upwards of $825,000 Up on the ridge, perfectly sited for all day sun and views of Evans Bay is this adorable little villa, the haven of our owner for nearly 30 years. Constructed over 100 years ago and faithfully and lovingly maintained, there are pretty character features throughout, along with welcome modernisations to enjoy. You'll take your morning coffee out on the veranda and enjoy the sun and sea views as you plan your day, and then throw open the French doors from the living room on warm evenings to enjoy the twinkling lights of Kilbirnie. This good-sized lounge leads into a spacious dining space; room for you and your family to spread out, work, play or entertain. There are two good sized double bedrooms, and a third that is perfectly positioned for afternoon sun that could also be an ideal work-from-home office or workroom. The kitchen and bathroom are both modern, with ample kitchen cabinetry, drawers and shelves; the laundry is usefully tucked away near the back door which is ideal for a quick handover of muddy gardening or sports gear. Adjacent to the kitchen is a cosy, casual sitting room with a charming fire place (not in use) that is the perfect snug come cooler months. Our green-fingered owner has loved establishing her garden and it has thrived up on the terrace, with vegetable beds, mature planting, flat lawn and a garden shed for all the tools. Storage is not a problem with both attic stairs and room under the house and veranda. Ride your bike with confidence to work or school on the cycleway out front, or in a couple of minutes you can walk right into Kilbirnie Village with all its amenities, including the Aquatic Centre, Kilbirnie Park, library and access to public transport. Retirement living is beckoning - so - if you are looking for your first home, small family home or just yearn for an enchanting place to call home - do come to inspect.
