About this property
**RV $2,850,000**Mount Victoria has no shortage of beautiful old homes, but every so often, one steps forward that feels genuinely elevated.
Originally built in 1910 and comprehensively reimagined, 18 Austin Street is a refined study in layering heritage with restraint. The pressed tin ceilings are spectacular. The stud height is dramatic. Stained glass, sash windows and timber floors anchor the home in its era, yet the overall mood is calm, tonal and entirely current.
Key features include:
- Meticulously renovated 1910 villa
- Three very large bedrooms plus office / fourth smaller bedroom
- Generous main bedroom with walk through wardrobe and view of the city and harbour
- Two beautifully detailed bathrooms with underfloor heating (including ensuite) plus guest w/c on living level
- Extraordinary pressed tin ceilings and soaring stud height
- Custom architect-designed bookshelves as sculptural room divide
- Interior design by Bridget Foley
- Open-plan kitchen, dining and living flowing west to a sun-soaked courtyard
- Marble kitchen bench and refined, timeless finishes and handy scullery/laundry
- Solid oak floors by James Henry
- Custom Nodi stair runner
- Designer lighting from Graystone and Bauhaus
- Radiator central heating
- Sheltered courtyard with roses, citrus and raised beds, garden design by Rachael Matthews at Hedge
- Single garage
At the centre, custom shelving designed with architect Ric Slessor stretches across the living space, dividing without enclosing. Books and art become part of the architecture itself.
Marble, oak and warm neutrals create a kitchen that feels grounded and quietly luxurious. Nothing trend-driven, just beautifully resolved design. Living flows west to a private courtyard that captures golden afternoon light.
Soft materiality runs throughout: linen, wool, solid oak and sculptural lighting made possible by generous ceiling height. This layered and textural approach results in an elevated and very liveable interior.
Positioned at the city end of Mount Victoria, you can walk to the many incredible local restaurants, Oriental Bay, the waterfront, the town belt and the CBD within minutes. This walkable and connected location and meticulously renovated home offers some of the best of Wellington city living on the market.
Deadline Sale (Unless sold prior) closes 12:00pm, Wednesday, 1st April 2026 at 8 Kent Terrace, Wellington
