For buyers with vision, 15 Happy Valley Road presents the opportunity to secure a flat 365m2 site in one of Wellington's distinctive coastal suburbs. The existing home has been sadly neglected over the years and requires significant work to bring it to a safe and sanitary standard. There is the potential to consider starting again and exploring redevelopment options.

The existing home comprises:

• Three bedrooms
• Study
• One bathroom
• Kitchen and dining area
• Separate Lounge
• Garage
• RV $740,000
• Land Area: 365m2 more or less

A single street-front garage with internal access provides additional utility, although this structure is also currently in poor condition.

The real opportunity lies beyond the existing dwelling with a flat sunny established section. Just a few minutes' walk from the beach and nearby boat ramp, its position offers the enjoyment of coastal living while being set back from the beachfront, providing a more sheltered setting. Dolphins and orcas are often spotted in the bay, while the coastline, water and surrounding reserves are all close at hand.

An easy stroll leads to The Beach House Kiosk, where morning coffee, breakfast or lunch can easily become part of the daily routine.

For those who enjoy an active outdoor lifestyle, Red Rocks is within walking distance, offering spectacular coastal walks and the chance to spot fur seals during their seasonal visits. Nearby Taputeranga Marine Reserve provides opportunities for snorkelling, diving and discovering the area's rich marine environment on calmer days.

The location also works well for families, with Ã…Ã…'whiro Bay School and Kindergarten and a nearby playground all within easy reach. A local bus stop provides public transport connections, while Island Bay and Brokklyn are just a short drive or cycle away, offering shops, cinema, cafés and everyday amenities. Dog owners are also well catered for, with Island Bay dog beach and Tawatawa Reserve providing plenty of space to get out and enjoy the outdoors.

Known as the gateway to Wellington's South Coast, Owhiro Bay combines rugged coastline, blue waters, and a strong sense of community. It is a location that offers something increasingly difficult to find: the opportunity to create your own future in a genuinely special coastal setting.

For the right buyer, this is a project with considerable potential. Whether the vision is to endeavour to restore the existing dwelling, rebuild or investigate redevelopment possibilities, the combination of land, location and flexibility makes this an opportunity worth exploring.

This property is expected to sell below the RV of $740,000.
