Kia Ora, and welcome to 32A Arawhata Street, Ranui. Tucked away down a quiet shared driveway yet only minutes from everything Porirua has to offer, this well cared for three-bedroom Lockwood is the kind of first home that is hard to find and easy to fall for.

There is something special about a Lockwood. The warm timber interiors and raked ceilings give the whole home a relaxed, cabin-like feel, and this one has been looked after beautifully. It is tidy, modern and ready to move straight into, with nothing on the to-do list but unpacking.

At the heart of the home is the open plan kitchen, living and dining, where plenty of bench space sits alongside a heat pump and wood burner for year-round comfort. A sunny conservatory off the living area is a brilliant bonus space, perfect as a reading nook, a study or a playroom for the kids. Slide the doors open and you are out on a generous deck positioned for the afternoon sun, the ideal spot for a weekend barbecue.

Three decent-sized bedrooms all come with built-in storage, serviced by a tidy modern bathroom and a separate laundry. Outside, the 604 sqm section gives you lawn, established greenery and a garden shed, with off-street parking at the door. The wide driveway is shared with just two other homes, so it is quiet and private, and great for little ones on bikes and scooters.

Location is where this one really shines. You are a short walk to the local playground and Porirua Park, with Glenview School and Porirua East School close by. Porirua City Centre and the mall are a four-minute drive, and Kenepuru Hospital is five minutes away. Tucked away, but super convenient.

Homes like this in Ranui don’t sit around for long.
