98 Helston Road, Paparangi, Wellington, 6037, New Zealand
Set back from the road with terrific views over Johnsonville towards the hills beyond, this superb family home has so much going for it. A private, sunny location where you can watch the sun setting from the patio or sunroom, it is a classic late 1950s weatherboard home – one of many in the area that have stood the test of time. These solid, well-made homes are also ripe for modernization – not that you need to do anything straight away. The large lounge is at the front of the property and flows to the sunroom and its views. To the rear is the kitchen and separate laundry, bathroom and toilet are also on this side of the property. The bedrooms are all doubles with two enjoying the westerly views and the other adjoining a sunny patio – a great spot for family BBQs, parties or just a quiet place to read a good book!
The home has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, has partial double-glazing and a useful garage and off-street park. Targeted at first-home buyers it has the ideal mix of being solid and eminently livable as is but with so much potential for those with the imagination and skills to really make it their own. All this in a highly sought-after location that is close to Johnsonville and the motorway on-ramp and the schools in Newlands and Paparangi.
