6 Atmore Avenue, Otaki, Kapiti Coast, Wellington, 5512, New Zealand

This enormous character property has stood for close to a century – oh the stories it could tell! If it’s a central location with room for a large family and or business, work from home potential, or multi-generational living opportunity you seek – this could be it!

The 324sqm home, built in the 1930s, could be utilised in so many ways. Drive straight under the carport for covered entry to the functional southern end of the home with kitchen and bathroom. Dining flows to an enormous living area with stone surround fireplace and tall windows for loads of sunlight and a front porch area to sit with a cuppa and a chat. Beautiful high studs are breathtaking, particularly in the downstairs living room and master.

You can in fact drive right around the home via the looped driveway, easy access on this fully fenced 1195sqm. Pockets of garden have been tamed and refined by these owners for easier care and to let the light shine in. Originally a market garden area, Atmore Avenue has ‘good soil and sunshine’. Paved exterior areas bring passive warmth which the furry friends love to lay on and soak up and currently used as the perfect spot to raise sun loving succulents.

The second story with bathroom, four additional bedrooms and yet another large living area with stunning views to the Tararuas provides room for family, guests or just to pick a room and use for your hobby or home business. There’s room for everyone with six generous bedrooms and a seventh off of the downstairs living area which would also make a great office or meditation area.

Currently utilised as a multi-generational home, our vendors have done a lovely job of painting and recarpeting the enormous home, as well as extensive piling work with soak pit drainage and underfloor insulation. It’s time for this family to move on and someone else to reap the benefits of the work they have done. It’s a lot of house! With some attention to the exterior this home could really sing.

There’s even more to explore with a large workshop/shed out back, a great place to set up a studio or use as storage for your business.

Situated in a flat, easy ride or walking area for those seeking central locations to schools, shops and transport. A five-minute drive will get you to beautiful river walks, beach swims and boat launches. It’s a short drive to the expressway and you’re into Wellington in under an hour.
