Description

Private Viewings Only

Set high above the street and embraced by native bush, 36 Laura Avenue offers a level of privacy, outlook, and lifestyle that feels worlds away, yet sits just a ten-minute bike ride from the heart of Wellington.

Arrival is an experience in itself. A private walkway winds through the trees, creating a quiet sense of separation from the outside world. For effortless daily access, a private cable car connects the street to the home, a rare and memorable feature that enhances both liveability and long-term comfort. At its base, a dedicated bike shed and EV charger support an easy, sustainable city lifestyle.

Held and carefully evolved by the same owner for decades, the home has been improved with clear intention. Every enhancement has focused on comfort, accessibility, and creating spaces that feel genuinely good to spend time in.

Inside, the atmosphere is warm and established, with character that cannot be replicated in a new build. The main living area centres around a wood fire, supported by gas central heating and underfloor heating, creating warmth and calm through the cooler months. Greenery frames the windows, reinforcing the feeling of being immersed in nature.

The kitchen is bright, modern, and positioned to remain connected to the surrounding bush, practical, welcoming, and designed for everyday living. A separate laundry is neatly tucked away, and storage throughout the home has been thoughtfully considered.

Upstairs, the master suite enjoys sweeping views across the bush canopy to the city and harbour beyond. Step onto your private balcony in the morning light or unwind in the evening as the city begins to glow below. With its own ensuite, this level feels like a peaceful retreat above it all.

Downstairs reveals something truly exceptional: a dedicated wellness level, fully integrated within the footprint of the home. An in-ground spa pool, steam sauna, shower, and gas fireplace create a space designed for restoration and retreat. This is not an afterthought, but a considered extension of the home’s architecture and lifestyle intent. A workshop and additional storage complete this level.

Sustainability has been thoughtfully incorporated, including a 3,000L rainwater storage discreetly positioned beneath the deck for watering the garden and WC flushing.

Established gardens blend seamlessly into the surrounding bush, with private walking tracks contained within the property itself. Birdsong replaces traffic noise, yet the city remains remarkably close.

Homes of this nature are rarely constructed, and even more rarely brought to market. To truly appreciate it, you need to walk the path, take the lift, and experience the stillness for yourself.

Private viewings are available by appointment and are strongly encouraged.
