9 Lipman Street, Mount Victoria, Wellington, 6011, New Zealand
9 Lipman Street is undoubtedly one of Mt Vic’s most handsome homes, with its late 1800’s character clearly evident from its attractive exterior. Inside, there has been very little done in recent years, and after several decades of being a reliable two flat property, the time has come for this incredible opportunity to be realized.
We won’t pretend that this is a small job, you will need vision and expert help to realise the potential here, potential that is obvious throughout. With a floor area of 203sqm^ on a relatively level 329sqm^ site, there is the chance to create off street parking and outdoor living, with the two level villa being a prime blank canvas to create a premium family home. Re roofed 2013, and exterior painted, including stripping old paint back to the weatherboards, also in 2013.
Similarly sized renovated homes in the area fetch prices in the $2m and $3m range, so you can renovate with the confidence that the robust Mt Victoria market will reward your efforts. The current owner had plans from Craig&Coltart in 2008 to create a spectacular home with basement carparking which we can provide to interested parties.
Within the shortest and almost flat walks to the many popular restaurants on Majoribanks Street plus Courtenay Place, Waterfront and the Cuba Precinct nearby, the location here is highly sought after. Zoned for Wellington College, Wellington East Girls College and Wellington High, it’s hard to beat Mount Victoria for family buyers looking for convenience and character.
This would have to be one of the most exciting renovation opportunities in one of Wellington’s most desired suburbs that we have seen this year and we can’t wait to show you through!
