31D Phillip St, Johnsonville, Wellington, Wellington

This upgraded one-bedroom gem in the heart of Johnsonville feels like a small miracle. You’re just 500 metres from the train, the Number 1 bus, Johnsonville Mall and a full spread of cafés and eateries…yet tucked away in a peaceful, sun-soaked spot with your own flat driveway and a carpark right at your front door. Convenience doesn’t get cleaner than this.

Inside, everything is fresh, warm and thoughtfully modern. Fully insulated, double-glazed and rewired from top to bottom, the home feels crisp and reassuring the moment you walk in. The open-plan living and kitchen zone is bright and comfortable, anchored by a brand-new kitchen with sleek cabinetry, smart storage and quality appliances. Large french doors pull the sun in all day long, and with a serviced heat pump plus a new mains-pressure hot water cylinder, the whole home runs effortlessly in every season.

The bedroom is surprisingly generous - a calm, soft-toned retreat with room to genuinely settle in. The brand-new bathroom follows suit with its contemporary finishes and clean-lined design. Everything has been upgraded so you can simply unlock the door, move in and get on with your best life.

And then there's the 40 sqm deck, a two-tier outdoor living area that feels like an extra room. The upper level is covered for year-round lounging; the lower deck steps down to tidy, easy-care gardens and a sweet outlook to a stream where ducks swim by. The large Keter shed (3.32m x 2.57m) is the final win: perfect for bikes, tools, sports gear or whatever you need tucked safely out of sight.

With no body corp fees, a secure cross-lease on a freehold section, and walking access to shops, transport, the dairy and schools, this home delivers that elusive mix of low-maintenance living and genuine lifestyle perks.
