Tucked away in a tranquil setting of greenery, birdsong, and all-day sun, this character-filled villa offers incredible flexibility and sweeping views on the fringe of vibrant Newtown. Positioned above Wellington Zoo and moments from the Southern Walkway, this is a warm and inviting home that blends timeless charm with versatile living options for families, extended family, home-and-income buyers, or those working from home.



Spread across two levels, the home features three spacious double bedrooms upstairs, including a master with adjoining sunroom, a perfect place to relax amongst the treetops while enjoying the warmth of the sun, Florentine glass, and vintage sliding windows. Throughout the villa you’ll find beautiful Edwardian character, from high ceilings, sash windows, bay windows, native timber flooring, cottage doors, and a clawfoot bath. Enjoy it comfortably as is, or explore the opportunity to further enhance and add value over time.



Adding to the home’s versatility is a spacious, modernised self-contained one-bedroom flat below, ideal for guests, teenagers, Airbnb potential, or independent living.



Elevated for exceptional sun and lovely outlooks, the property enjoys a truly unique backdrop, with the distant sound of the zoo’s animals adding to the atmosphere morning and night. Indoor-outdoor living is well catered for with both a deck and courtyard off the main home, wraparound decking for the flat, and beautifully established terraced gardens featuring oak, walnut, pōhutukawa, and kōwhai trees.



Underneath the home is a generous workshop space, perfect for extra storage, hobbies, or a DIY retreat. Positioned at the end of a peaceful city-fringe cul-de-sac near Melrose Park and the Southern Walkway.



Adding further peace of mind, the property’s consents are now all up to date.



Held and cherished for the past 24 years, this is a rare opportunity to secure a truly special property filled with warmth, character, flexibility, and potential. Don’t miss the opportunity to experience this unique home for yourself at the open homes.
