Sinead Diederich Harcourts Lower Hutt
Christelle van Zyl Harcourts Lower Hutt
This magnificent property is located on a secluded and sunny site that affords sensational views over Days Bay to Matiu Somes Island in Wellington harbour. Set amongst native bush and beech trees its elevated and sheltered position creates a stunning private haven amongst the treetops.
Designed by the celebrated modernist architect Bill Toomath, and enjoyed by the present owner for 31 years, the house has many original features including wooden panelling, extensive built-in cupboards and clerestory windows. This gives it a timeless quality and the care with which the home has been maintained makes it comfortable for modern living.
Generous accommodation is spread over two levels. Upstairs comprises a large family room and kitchen, conservatory, sunroom, two bedrooms, main bathroom, separate w.c. and patio. Downstairs is a self-contained apartment with double bedroom, bathroom, living space/ kitchenette, private terrace. A workshop area sits beside the downstairs laundry.
In addition to the beautiful bush setting and gardens, there is a large (41m2) double garage with mezzanine floor. The private cable car takes you through the trees to the front door of the house, which was set up and used for many years as home and income. This versatile property is ideal for families, couples seeking tranquillity with an income stream, and anyone who has a passion for architecture, trees, unrivalled sea views, or all three.
Days Bay living is highly sought after for many reasons including its glorious sunshine, beautiful walks, sheltered beach, breath-taking views, cafes, restaurants and the commuter ferry to Wellington. The Eastbourne village and shops are just a short stroll away. Come for a day to The Bay and you won't want to leave.
