Description
Welcome to 169 California Drive – a spacious 162m2 family home set on a fully fenced 661m2 section in the sought-after Totara Park neighbourhood. Built in 1975, this solid home offers the ideal setup for families wanting flexibility, space, and the option of generational living.
With living areas at both ends of the house and two separate bathrooms, this layout works perfectly for extended family or those who want to enjoy time together while still having their own space.
The semi-modern kitchen, complete with a dishwasher, flows seamlessly into the open-plan dining and main living area, forming a comfortable hub for everyday life. A real bonus is the second lounge or rumpus room at the rear of the home – complete with its own wood burner and ranch slider doors opening to the outdoors – providing the perfect retreat for teenagers, guests, or grandparents.
The home features four bedrooms, with one extra-long single originally created by combining two smaller rooms for the grandkids. This can easily be converted back to a five-bedroom configuration if needed.
Warmth and comfort are assured throughout, with a wood burner, gas heater, and insulation keeping the home cosy year-round.
Outside, there's plenty of space for everyone, with off-street parking, a carport, and a large work shed ideal for hobbies, projects, or storage. The fully fenced section offers peace of mind for children and pets to play safely.
Totara Park is a friendly, family-oriented community with local schools, shops, parks, and river trails, all just minutes from the Upper Hutt CBD.
