80 Standen Street, Karori, Wellington, 6012, New Zealand
If you love being close to nature but still want the convenience of city-fringe living, this home near the heart of Karori offers the best of both worlds. Set upon a picturesque street and bordering more than 10km of scenic tracks and reserve land, it’s a peaceful retreat with character and charm. This well-loved home offers:
– Three double bedrooms with built-in storage (custom drawers in the master), plus two bathrooms — including a combined laundry/shower/toilet setup that’s super practical.
– Modernised 1920s charm: polished floorboards, leadlight windows, Carrara ceilings, bifold windows, and vintage cabinetry meet a sleek, updated kitchen, separate living and dining, plus modern gas fireplace.
– A light-filled home office with calming garden and bush views — perfect for hybrid working (or daydreaming).
– A fully fenced backyard that ticks all the boxes: flat lawn, spa pool, and a converted garage that’s now a warm, carpeted sleep-out or studio.
– Zoned for Wellington College and Wellington Girls’ College, and close to Karori’s top schools.
– Internal access double garage + off-street parking, just a short stroll from shops, cafes, and frequent bus routes.
No wonder this rare find is hitting the market for the first time in 25 years.
