Our 1400Sq ft house is an Arts and Craft style two storey
character home built in the 1920's. Most Wellington houses are built on
hillsides and ours is no exception. This provides us with excellent city
and far reaching hill views, with a glimpse of the sea, and great afternoon
and evening sun. Two double bedrooms, a study or 3rd
bedroom, and the main bathroom are upstairs. The bathroom is ultra modern
with a jetted glass sided shower, a spa bath etc . Downstairs are the entrance
hall, kitchen, separate dining room, lounge with anti room (currently our
office), laundry room with WC, sewing room and a plant potting area. The
lounge and dining room have an elevated exterior deck for bar-b-ques and
outside entertaining. They also have open fireplaces, and there is also
gas central heating to all main rooms. We have an inside ginger cat and
an outside black and white cat - arrangements can be made to feed them if
necessary at any time during your visit.
Our compact garden is well presented with mature trees, shrubs,
rose arches, box hedging, a fish pond and fountain, no grass to cut and stone
and pebble walkways.
Other features are a double garage with a lift to the garden
level. A four door saloon Toyota car is available and we have a 3 berth (2
adult 1 child) motorhome also available. The 2 lt diesel motorhome comes with
most necessities for freedom camping. New Zealand is ideal for camping holidays
and has numerous free as well as pay-as-you-stay sites.
