Rejuvenated Family Home on Flat Site
You will instantly fall in love with this rejuvenated, early-seventies weatherboard house. While the original charm has been maintained, almost all aspects of the home have been upgraded.
The open plan lounge area has new carpet, while the attached dining/kitchen area has new laminate floor planks. The front entrance is also in laminate.
The kitchen is new with separate scullery, freestanding oven with ceramic-cooktop, double fridge space, a large pantry and lots of storage will tick the avid chef's requirements. Brand new dishwasher.
The three double bedrooms have new carpets and all have wardrobes with floor-to-ceiling sliding mirror doors.
The family bathroom has a frameless glass shower and spa-bath with tile walls and floor.
Keeping the house at your desired temperature is not going to be a problem. Gas heating, along with a ceiling heat-recovery system means colder times pass almost unnoticed. You have double-glazed aluminium retro-fitted windows and ceiling/wall insulation as well. The solid weatherboard construction and coloursteel roof (approx 6 years old) will put you at ease during the windiest Wellington night.
The rear of the home has a deck connecting it to the massive garage. This is a great sheltered spot to relax and unwind.
The laundry is in the garage and features fan-drying clothes-lines so you can do the washing after the little-ones have gone to bed. You can also hang clothes out of the way while using ceiling-cavity warmth to dry quickly in winter.
Outside it's a case of sun, sun, sun with true all-day sun baking your completely fenced-in section.
The lawn area is not huge, so easy maintenance. But there is space galore with Belmont Regional Park right next to you. Enjoy natural garden scenery from the dining room, kitchen and lounge windows - for free, with no maintenance work!
Our owners have loved the location, near the Dowse drive onramp to SH2, so they are within 30 minutes of Wellington CBD when driving. Or simply hop on a bus (bus stop 100 meters away) down to Petone station and train the rest of the way.
