Positioned in sought-after Thorndon and just a short stroll into Wellington’s CBD, 197A Grant Road offers one of the most adaptable and desirable opportunities in the city fringe. Across from Te Ahumairangi Hill and surrounded by corporate hubs, Parliament, Wellington University, cafés and transport links — this is location gold!

Built in the early 1900s, the residence oozes period charm — soaring ceilings, bay window, wooden floors, generous proportions and that unmistakable character feel.

Currently configured as two dwellings, it offers flexibility, lifestyle and income for astute buyers. The upper two levels feature a substantial 4-bedroom home with harbour and city views, spacious kitchen/dining, two toilets, and light-filled rooms. Below is a separate 2-bedroom flat with its own entrance and deck — ideal for guests, extended family or additional income.

Outdoor living is a rare treasure this close to the CBD — Here, you enjoy a sunny, generous backyard, perfect for children, entertaining or gardening, plus a storage shed and plenty of resident parking right at your doorstep. And when you feel like stretching the legs, wander across the road to Te Ahumairangi Hill for some of Wellington’s most breathtaking outlooks.

The current owner has been achieving a combined rental income of $1,450 per week, making this a compelling investment or live-and-earn option.
