206 Sutherland Road Lyall Bay, Wellington City

Sophisticated, edgy, draped in elegance, but with a funky modern twist, these are just a few of the words to capture the essence of this charming semi-detached home circa 1905.

Step inside, and you'll appreciate the vista of this house, stretching from sea to green tranquillity.

Leading off the hallway is the primary suite facing East with double doors leading to the sunny, elevated deck, with magical views over Lyall Bay to the sea. Beautifully decorated, with accents of black, including all the drama of a chandelier, you'll be lulled to sleep by the sound of the waves, snug and warm in those winter months with a working fireplace and heat pump.

A second double bedroom mirrors the sophistication of the primary suite, and a third, small double bedroom is currently used as a home office.

The full bathroom with claw-foot bath and shower combo, toilet and pedestal hand basin is a node to the past, with the laundry discreetly hidden behind a door.

The lounge is the heart of the home, combining original features, with funky decor to add that touch of drama. Double doors lead to a West facing conservatory, currently used as a dining room, with great views to the terraced back garden, Pohutukawa tree and town belt beyond.

Culinary creativity can abound in a striking kitchen, combining dark cabinetry, white benchtops, and frosted glass. Gas hob and oven, and F&P dishwasher, combined with an abundance of storage, a pantry, and clever use of the ceiling height, making the kitchen a pleasure to create in.

The home boasts beautiful, established low maintenance gardens: the front has hardy seaside planting and a lovely water feature, whilst the back garden is terraced for ease of access, with multiple entertaining areas, including a spa bath with a spectacular view over Lyall Bay and beyond. Private and sunny, with clever use of space, and secret places for the children to explore.

So much more to adore:

• an abundance of natural light through multiple skylights
• gas heating, and heat pumps throughout the home
• automatic timer on the spa bath
• all original doors and sash windows have been double glazed
• combination of warm native timber floors and durable carpet
• sky-high, 12-foot ceilings
• secret storage areas
• the primary suite could also be configured as a formal lounge
• large basement with insulated ceiling

Just 300m from the sandy shores of Lyall Bay, but sheltered from the prevailing winds Vendor is relocating North, and this wonderful home is very realistically priced for what's on offer.

With the sea breeze in the air, close to transport and amenities, including the iconic Maranui cafe; and Queen Sally Deli at your fingertips, this location will never disappoint, and is pure gold.
