Substantial Home, Significant Potential

Innovative investor? Large family appreciative of an iconic home with grand, original character features? Opportunities abound with this 250 square metre, two storey gracious residence, built in the early 1900s and resplendent with period features including the magnificent rimu staircase, high ceilings, register fireplaces and original sash windows, some with stained glass or leadlights. Consider the possibilities this dwelling presents - just minutes away from the lively Newtown centre and café scene, 9 Hiropi Street has the potential for development, dependent on consent from the WCC, such as becoming a boarding house or professionals' residence, or even separate self-contained flats.
Of course, this home could be loved and enjoyed, with the prospect to renovate and refurbish, by more than one family generation. Slightly elevated to enjoy views across Newtown, you'll love the sunny, northwest aspect this beautiful home provides.
One of Wellington's largest suburbs, Newtown enjoys its reputation as a most cosmopolitan suburb, popular because of its vibrancy, ethnic diversity and proximity to Wellington Airport and the central business district. It is home to Wellington and Wakefield hospitals, Massey University, Government House, Wellington Zoo, the Basin Reserve and is a major stop on most south Wellington bus routes.
With all that number 9 and Newtown have to offer, seeing is believing! Come to the open homes or make an appointment to view today. Property ID: #WL24554
