12 Nikau Road, Point Howard, Lower Hutt, Wellington, 5013, New Zealand
From the bullnose verandah overlooking the stunning harbour views for afternoon drinks or morning cup of tea to the rimu timber and surrounds, the original fireplace and stained glass, this tastefully presented, character filled home holds all the charm of yesteryear while blending perfectly into the needs of modern day living.
The living is large, open plan, perfect for entertaining – light and airy. The nature of the top level means even the kitchen enjoys the view, leaving you in danger of being mesmerised by the outlook and forgetting to cook! French doors lead out onto the generous veranda which is perfect for a get together. Completing the top level is the study or 4th bedroom, laundry and guest bathroom.
Head downstairs to the bedrooms, two doubles and a large master with feature windows showcasing the view with loads of well thought out robe space and storage. The family bathroom is modern and easily caters for all 3 bedrooms on this level. Heating is taken care of in the colder months with heat pumps on each level.
While there is no lawn to mow there is a private courtyard and BBQ area, the walk up to the home is easy and complete with a Pergola to stop and admire the view or leave the shopping for the next person to bring up.
Location is key, the network of bush walks can lead you from Point Howard through to Eastbourne, you are minutes to the bus, a quick drive around to Eastbourne to the ferry and the delights of the Eastbourne Village or Days Bay Pavillion and it’s an easy commute to both the Wellington and Hutt Valley CBD.
