There is something wonderfully welcoming about 194 Sydney Street West.

Set within one of Thorndon's character precincts, this beautiful 1890s home has all the charm and history you hope for, but with generous living spaces that work brilliantly for modern life.
Our owners purchased the home last year and have loved making it their own. A job transfer has brought an unexpected change of plans, creating a rare opportunity for someone new to enjoy this much-loved home.The real standout here is the living.
Forget one big open-plan box. Instead, you get a series of beautifully proportioned rooms, each with its own purpose and personality. An elegant sitting room for relaxing or entertaining, a central dining room, and a more informal family living space opening directly to the sheltered courtyard garden.

And that garden connection is a beauty.
Throw open the doors and suddenly the living spills outside - morning coffee, long lunches, summer dinners or a quiet spot with a book. Surrounded by established greenery, it feels remarkably private for a home right in the heart of the city.
The modern kitchen is well placed for both everyday life and entertaining, with a separate modern laundry keeping things practical.

Upstairs are four bedrooms, giving you plenty of flexibility for family, guests or working from home, along with a family bathroom.

Then there are the things you simply don't get in a new build - lovely proportions, character, history and a home that feels like it has a story to tell. Radiator heating throughout provides cosy, even warmth for year-round comfort.
And the location? Hard to beat.

Walk to the CBD, Parliament and Victoria University, wander through the Botanic Gardens, or head out for coffee, dinner or a drink at one of Thorndon's cafés, pubs and restaurants.
If you are looking for a home with warmth, personality and genuinely great spaces to live in, 194 Sydney Street West needs to be on your list.
Homes like this are exactly why people fall in love with Thorndon.
