In real estate, “tightly held” is a phrase reserved for homes that are rarely brought to the market. They are seldom offered and consistently admired.
93 Elizabeth Street is exactly that. With just two recorded families owning the property across more than 130 years, it’s a home that has been held onto for a reason.
And once you step inside, it’s easy to see why.
Features include:
- Charming 1890s single-level villa
- One generous bedroom in the main home with new wool carpet
- Light-filled open plan living with native timber floors and bay window
- Well-presented bathroom
- Recently repainted interior of studio and main home, with exterior of main home just completed
- Main house re roofed in 2015
- Separate studio (approx. 18 sqm^) with scope to add an ensuite (subject to WCC consent)
- Private, city-fringe garden with established planting and room to evolve
Positioned on one of Mount Victoria’s most picturesque streets within easy walking distance of the waterfront, restaurants, cafes and CBD. This is small-home living in its most authentic form — thoughtful, efficient, and deeply liveable. Every square metre of the approximately 80 sqm home (source: QV) has been carefully utilised, creating a sense of surprising openness and ease.
The separate studio adds another layer entirely. Elevated for late sun and enjoying a lovely outlook across Mount Victoria’s character homes, it offers flexibility for work, guests, creativity or wellness.
Opportunities like this are few and far between. And once they’re gone, they tend to stay gone for some time.
Tender closes 12pm, Wednesday 6th May 2026 at 8 Kent Terrace, Wellington (will not be sold prior)
