Listing # L43122719 | Listed on 13 October

Follow the garden path through lush, established landscaping and discover a truly special home, complete with a sparkling pool, sun-drenched decks and sweeping breathtaking harbour views from every room. A place where the day begins with birdsong, unfolds beneath the warmth of the sun. A rare and deeply private sanctuary, where space, nature and creativity are woven seamlessly into everyday living.

Lovingly held by the same owners for 26 years, this architecturally reimagined 1920s residence beautifully combines timeless character with thoughtful, contemporary design. Sheltered from Wellington's wild winds, it has a microclimate which offers a rare sense of peace and privacy while remaining effortlessly connected to the very best of the city.

Highlights include:

  • Three generous double bedrooms in the main house, complemented by two versatile standalone studios
  • A two-storey detached studio with an upper-level sleeping area and a flexible lower level, ideal as a workshop, home office, creative space or substantial storage
  • A second two-storey studio, offering a dedicated work-from-home space upstairs and generous storage or utility space below
  • A flat, private lawn - perfect for children and pets
  • A sheltered setting providing calm and comfortable outdoor living throughout the year
  • Beautiful spaces designed for effortless entertaining and relaxed gatherings with family and friends
  • Thriving vegetable gardens, mature fruit trees and beautifully established planting
  • A sparkling pool with solar option and multiple sun-filled decks positioned to capture the changing light throughout the day
  • A single garage with two-storey configuration and additional storage below
  • Excellent natural light throughout with sea views from every room
  • Bathroom, with shower and spa bath, two separate toilets and separate generous laundry and linen cupboard
  • Scope to further develop and add value, subject to the necessary consents

Set within the tightly held coastal enclave of Karaka Bays, this is a home that offers both sanctuary and connection. Scenic coastal walks are close by Seatoun Village, walkway to Scorching Bay, sought-after schools, Wellington Airport, Miramar's cafes, shops and eateries, and the creative hub of Weta Workshop are all just minutes away.

Call Alexia or Tommy to book in a private appointment.

Tender closes 1pm Wednesday 4th November 2026 at Tommy's Real Estate Limited, 209 Victoria Street, Te Aro, Wellington. (Vendor reserves the right to sell prior)
