About this property
Rarely if ever can you buy an authentic Thorndon villa as immaculate and exquisite as this with both a garage and a separate, versatile extra large studio (approximately 37m2) - where one of NZ's highly distinguished artists painted internationally renowned works. You'll be just as inspired by everything this 1903 showcase of character and charm offers in the ultimate blue-chip location on the doorstep of the CBD and town belt.Features include:
- Architecturally restored and rationalised by Philip Porritt, with three double bedrooms (one with a peek of the harbour, another with an ensuite and walk-in wardrobes), study with French doors to a sunny balcony (which could be a fourth single bedroom), and a spacious and superbly appointed bathroom with a walk-in shower and bidet.
- Extra large, light-filled studio, with skylights and expansive wall space for art as well as a sink bench and toilet: use for your own inspiration or as another living space, office or fifth bedroom (approximately 37m2).
- Separate drawing and sitting rooms, both with built-in bookcases: the former faces north for fantastic sun, the latter could be a formal dining room, grand library, office or sumptuous media room
- Rich blend of heritage and comfort, from newly oiled and sanded sash windows, largely original floorboards and staircase, four feature fireplaces to gas central heating and a remodelled kitchen and family/dining area that opens to an al fresco courtyard
- Meticulously maintained for peace-of-mind modern living, complete with brand new Colorsteel roof and professionally repainted interior and exterior
- Supremely picturesque street appeal, from the landmark cherry blossom tree, garden and raised walkway to the enchanting garage that could be mistaken for an Edwardian cottage
- Unbeatable location just metres from park and town belt, and minutes from the CBD and motorway - yet surprisingly private and quiet
- Buyer Enquiry Over $1,995,000
No wonder this remarkable home, with its grandeur and grace, featured in NZ House & Garden magazine and continues to be a beacon for the best of past and present in Wellington’s most distinguished suburb.
