98 Severn Street, Island Bay, Wellington, Wellington

Where better to enjoy a south coast lifestyle this close to beaches and village shops? A short drive or bike ride from the CBD, with four spacious bedrooms, lovely views across Island Bay, indoor-outdoor living, and drive-on to a sizeable garage and workshop. This is the sweet spot to beat. Features include:

• Four sunny double-bedrooms — two upstairs, two down — so plenty of room for families or to work from home
• Crafted Rimu bathroom with shower, vanity, large bath and toilet plus convenience of another toilet off the downstairs laundry
• Four car garaging with workspace and the convenience of off-street parking for an additional two vehicles
• Large lounge with floor-to-ceiling bay window where you can enjoy a morning cuppa’ in the sun and sweeping views over Island Bay to the northeast
• Crafted Rimu kitchen that captures the morning sun and the picturesque splendour of a kowhai that perfectly frames the view
• Sunny and sheltered outdoor living area that steps up a terraced garden with potential to landscape further or grow your own vegetables
• Durability of ‘60s construction with the warmth and beauty of Rimu joinery throughout, including an open-tread staircase, and the year-round comfort of a SmartVent System and a floor mounted AC System in the lounge
• Just a short stroll from Island Bay village, with its shops, cafes, supermarket, schools and iconic cinema
• Nearby is the ionic South Coast with its rugged landscape and wildlife in one direction and Taputeranga Island and Marine Reserve in the other

If you want to live near beaches, bus routes, coastal walks, mountain bike trails and businesses, in a home that’s seldom been for sale, don’t miss open home viewings.
