European Charm In The Coolest Little Capital

This boutique 1930s apartment has a genuine calming continental atmosphere (think Paris, Rome, Madrid). Set back from the street with high stud ceilings, the one-bedroom apartment consists of a double bedroom with large inbuilt wardrobe, tidy kitchen, separate lounge and a marble-floored modernised bathroom. Summer sun filters in through the character hush-glassed steel-framed windows. The building's ultra-fast broadband (UFB) connection is wired to the door and ready for install. With plenty of internal storage, it feels bigger than its 60 square metres. A vehicle is not really needed for an inner-city lifestyle so the secure off-street parking could be leased out if not required.
This gorgeous heritage apartment is situated in the heart of Willis St., very close to the Lambton, Cuba and Courtenay quarters. Te Auaha - the new Institute of Applied Creativity is just around the corner and Victoria and Massey Universities are short walks away.
You will love living here as it is, or you could easily convert it to contemporary chic using the high stud and character features already in place. With a very well run Body Corporate, a comprehensive long term maintenance plan and plenty of information available to buyers, the decision will be easy. The monthly levy of $540 pays for building maintenance, insurance, all hot water and central heating from the superb warmth of radiators.
Individuals or couples seeking a calm and discreet inner-city apartment need to look at this option. With walk-to-work convenience, public transport, restaurants, theatres, city parks and cafes virtually at your doorstep, it may be just what you want - a city home, Wellington-base or rental investment. Wellington City Council engineers confirmed in 2009 that the building (is) not earthquake prone. Property ID: #WL24322
