75 Elizabeth Street, Waikanae, Kapiti Coast, Wellington, 5036, New Zealand
With charm, versatile living, and gardens second to none, 75 Elizabeth St is a property that doesn’t come around very often. Private, peaceful, and perfectly maintained it features two separate and self-contained spaces: the main two-bedroom property; and an additional one-bedroom studio cottage at the rear. Featuring almost a third of an acre of land, within walking distance of the township, the property could offer opportunities for builders and developers alike.
The main property is a 1970s Lockwood. The inside is painted to perfection, boasting some double-glazed joinery, and sloped timber ceilings throughout. The two bedrooms here are doubles with wardrobes, alongside a tidy study, but the star of the show is the social space.
A semi-open-plan environment, this living, dining, and kitchen dazzle with sun pouring in all day, and leads to a delightful conservatory at the front, and an enormous covered verandah at the rear. Throughout this entire property, you’ll find a view.
The self-contained cottage studio is the second space: the studio has its own kitchenette, social space, bathroom, and deck. This would be ideal for an extended family or hosting guests and has been run as a successful and profitable AirBnB, with potential to return $20,000 to $25,000 at 60% occupancy.
The front garden is a secluded haven of flower beds and manicured hedges, keeping it quiet and private, with a wee deck alongside the conservatory, offering plenty of options to sit and enjoy the birdsong.
The rear garden features lush lawns, and fruit trees boasting a supply of plums, citrus, apples, and peaches, all overlooked by the spacious verandah, cottage studio, and Hemi Matenga in the nearby hills.
As well as being a haven of self-sufficiency, the versatility of the site must be acknowledged, over a quarter acre in size, the property offers opportunities for builders and developers alike.
