Wellington's Best Kept Secret

AUCTION: Friday, 25 November 2016 at 3:00pm, on site (unless sold prior). See the video of this property at mikerobbers.com. Ascot Street is a gorgeous little street just off Tinakori Road which is lined with historic cottages. The best part of Ascot street however, is that at its highest point, it catches fantastic morning and late afternoon sun. With only a handful of houses, the top of Ascot Street is a privileged little area, as property here rarely comes up for sale. Lucky then, that the owners of 31 Ascot Street are moving up to the Kapiti Coast. They are motivated to sell and have chosen auction for good reason. You can now be the fifth owner of this hidden treasure and once you live here, you'll never want to move again. Located 20 metres up from the shops, galleries and cafés of Tinakori Road, and directly opposite Granny Cooper's Cottage, the gate to 31 Ascot Street leads to your own private oasis, with roses, apple trees and beautiful hydrangeas. The local Tui seem to like this spot too, chirping away in the sunshine. The gorgeous 1860s cottage suits the location, with three bedrooms, two living areas, a sizeable kitchen and plenty of storage, a family could happily live here. There are of course five schools within walking distance and the CBD and parliament are only minutes away, so this location is ideal for those who like to walk to work. The house has plenty of original charm, but modern touches, like two heat pumps and insulation, certainly make life easier. There are two areas of lawn, the rear is particularly suitable for entertaining in the late summer sun. This property is best experienced in person, so get in touch today, our owners have committed to moving on and this property absolutely will be sold. Builder's report available 03/11/16, LIM available 15/11/16. Property ID: #WL24296
