Tucked away in a leafy pocket of greenery, serenity and birdsong, this sunny villa stands out for its versatility and views on the verge of vibrant Newtown. It combines three bedrooms on the top level with a one-bedroom flat underneath that could be used for home-and-income, intergenerational living or working from home amid the call of the wild from nearby Wellington Zoo and the Southern Walkway. Features include:
- Three double-bedrooms, including master with adjacent sunroom where you can soak up the treetop views and vintage charm of sliding windows and Florentine glass
- Largely original Edwardian character, from high ceilings, sash windows and clawfoot bath to cottage doors, bay windows and native timber floorboards: love it as it is or capitalise on the restoration potential
- Modernised, spacious, self-contained flat
- Elevated for all-day sun and lovely views above Wellington Zoo, where you'll hear the tigers roar morning and night
- Private indoor-outdoor living, with both a deck and courtyard off the villa and a wraparound deck off the flat - plus terraced garden with oak, walnut, pohutukawa and kowhai trees
- Bonus of a well-appointed workshop under the house: use for extra storage or as a do-it-yourselfer's retreat
- Located at end of city-fringe cul-de-sac near entrance to Melrose Park and the Southern Walkway, with picturesque path from the garage to the house
