Rural Oasis on City Fringe

Tender: 24th March 2022 at 1:00pm, Harcourts Wellington City Office (no prior sale).

A once in a lifetime opportunity to secure a large family home on a charming, established lifestyle property. Located only 20 minutes from the CBD this superb property with mature gardens, flat paddocks and extensive regenerating bush would suit anyone wanting a large space to live or work from home. The land offers a multitude of opportunities and space for animals to graze, hobbyists to grow, and children to run free. The easy commute to Wellington CBD and zoned for Wellington schools means this idyllic lifestyle can be enjoyed while still maintaining a city profession. The option for business development and/or subdivision is also there. You will instantly feel the different micro-climate this magic Karori location captures - sheltered and sunny. The house was built in 1980 and received an extensive architectural renovation in the late 90's. Luxury bathrooms and a well-appointed kitchen were installed in 2019. The layout is designed to easily adapt as your needs grow and change. Boasting 3 living areas, open plan kitchen and dining, 5 bedrooms, 2 modern bathrooms, artist studio, office and library sprawling over 283m2. Every room has external doors inviting you to move seamlessly to the outside. Decks wrap around the house, step down into sheltered courtyards and flow onto acres of manicured gardens, bountiful vege patch, mini orchard and on further still to the fresh water stream and rolling hills of native bush. A large barn, shed, green house and hen house are ample space to house the animals and the machines required for maintenance. A stream runs through the property offering fun for children year-round and dips for adults on hot days. While others in the valley do drink from the stream, this home's water is supplied directly from a clean aquifer spring that bubbles out of the hillside nearby. There are few places in the world where you can live in comfort surrounded by nature on a large property just 20 minutes from the CBD. A must see.
Please only vaccinated buyers to inspect the property in person. 3D tour and video available via the links above. I look forward to seeing you at the open home on Saturdays 11.30-12.30. Or call for a private viewing.

A vaccine pass is required for entry to this property. Unvaccinated - contact your agent for a private viewing. Property ID: #WL25877
