3 Tui Road, Raumati Beach, Kapiti Coast, Wellington, 5032, New Zealand

This is a unique five-bedroom home that’s evolved and expanded through the years. It’s a sprawling place on an expansive plot that’s big on space, big on possibilities and big on personality.

Set back and screened from the road by the solid fencing and hedges. There’s a wide drive and front yard with plenty of space for cars and toys with a double garage offering more room for vehicles.

With wide, deep windows to the front, the whole heart of the house is bright and airy. There is a sunroom to the front of the house and then the family, dining, and kitchen stretch all the way to the back of the property. There are curious and clever design touches here and there, like the partially open wall that keeps the lounge and dining areas separate but connected.

Nearby are three good-sized bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate guest cloakroom. Along another section of the house, there is second story rumpus, office, or fifth bedroom with its views from North and West, or walk into a self-contained area on the ground floor – perfect for family members who want their own space, or a business, gym or home cinema. Conveniently, it’s got its own full bathroom, access through to the garage to the front, plus glazed ranch doors out to the huge deck and garden.

With lots of space for entertaining across decking and patio, there’s a stepped garden that spans the back of the plot that you can reach via a ramp and steps. A modest side lawn stretches back along the west side of the house back to the front, and the other areas of decking.

Situated in a family-friendly Raumati Beach spot – this home is an easy walk to kindy, schools, playing fields, beach, and shops. There’s too much here to call this home ordinary – with a little creativity you could make it extraordinary.
