42 Poplar Avenue, Raumati South, Kapiti Coast, Wellington

Flourishing gardens and gently elevated for sun and privacy, this classic 1950s home is a peaceful sanctuary in the heart of the village. Thoughtfully renovated over time, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms and it offers the perfect balance of timeless character and everyday comfort.

Warm polished timber floors, a crackling wood burner, and a sunny bay window seat set the scene for relaxed living. The bespoke kitchen by Orchard Joinery features quality appliances, wide stainless steel benchtops, a large pantry, ideal for everything from quiet breakfasts to lively family dinners on the deck.

The layout includes three bedrooms with two spacious double bedrooms and a third room ideal as a single bedroom or office, plus two beautifully appointed bathrooms (one cleverly combined with the laundry). The icing on the cake? A separate studio sleepout perfect for extended family, creative space, a peaceful yoga nook, or working from home in peace and quiet.

Immaculately presented and within easy reach of shops, cafés, schools, and public transport, the location couldn’t be better. With flat, generous off-street parking, a separate garage, and excellent indoor-outdoor flow, this home invites you to stop rushing and start living.

Whether you're after a family home, weekend escape, or a space to recharge, this is the place where you step in, exhale, and simply....stay awhile.
