7 Putnam Street, Northland, Wellington, 6012, New Zealand

Commanding an impressive site, this elegant five bedroom home enjoys glorious all-day sun and embraces panoramic harbour views. Full of charm and character, it has been loved by the same family for 43 years.

Stepping inside, there’s a generous living and dining room, interconnected by double doors, allowing an open plan arrangement or cosy separate areas. Completing this pretty picture is the fire place and adjoining sun room/office.

Five bedrooms, all with wardrobes. Its functional configuration, spread over two levels, with two of the bedrooms and a bathroom located downstairs, makes it an ideal scenario for an au pair, guests, teenagers, or boarders.

Two bathrooms, separate utility room/laundry.

And the beautifully positioned kitchen, so inviting and sunny, you can’t help but be drawn here, to take in the expansive flat lawn, stretching out to the horizon of the harbour and city scene below.

There’s much to love about the location, simply leave the car in the garage and walk to work. Perched above the buzz of the city and within walking distance of “world famous” Zealandia. You have the best of both worlds on your doorstep.

As delightful as it is, there is also potential here to create something quite special to suit your family. The current proportions are lovely and there is certainly scope to push out the back of the house and open up the kitchen to develop a modern, open plan arrangement with flow to the incredible garden beyond.

Here is your opportunity to create a home for life.
