Spacious home with coastal views

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. Enjoy the most beautiful coastal view in Wellington with the occasional whale or dolphin watching experience. With uninterrupted views and all day sun this family home is the best spot for any getaway. Cosy up next to our fireplace with open plan living or soak up the last of the sun on our deck. Modern house with a private front yard and plenty of space inside and out.
With uninterrupted view from Island Bay to Owhiro Bay including the South Island and Red Rocks. Our family home was built to maximise the rugged South Coast. There is never a dull moment taking in these views while enjoying our home with a new kitchen, bathroom and cosy three bedrooms. Only a short drive into the CBD to make the most that Wellington has to offer. 15 minute drive from the airport, hospital and CBD.

Interior Highlights:

Living Spaces: Spacious living room with large windows to maximise the view and French doors onto the deck. Two cosy couches (one fold out double bed) and tv make a great relaxing spot. The living room opens onto a stylish sitting room with a central fireplace keeping the whole house warm (there are additional oil heaters in the bedrooms).

Kitchen: Equipped with modern appliances, including a coffee machine, gas top, electric oven, dishwasher and dinning table. This stylish kitchen is the hub of the home. With beautiful white counter tops and everything you would need to entertain your guests while taking in the incredible coastal environment.

Bedrooms: The home offers three bedrooms. The master suite features a Queen bed, two wardrobes and beautiful sea views. The second bedroom is furnished with a queen bed and ample storage, while the third bedroom has one king single bed and a desk for remote working.

Bathroom: One full luxurious bathroom complements the living spaces, with the main bathroom equipped with a spacious new shower, large soaking tub, and modern vanity and toilet. The second toilet is located in the laundry where you will have access to our washer and dryer.


Exterior Features:

Deck and private grassed area: The large deck area, accessible via French doors from the dining and kitchen area, offers a perfect setting for enjoying the view and having a peaceful moment. The grass lawn is the perfect barrier between the deck and uninterrupted views of the Cook Strait and onto the South Island.

Island Bay Retreat
This holiday home is wonderful. It has an amazing view. The house is well presented with newly renovated kitchen and bathroom. We had a great week in Wellington and this house enabled us to retreat from the city and relax. It was clean and tidy and even had bread, milk, eggs and banans in the fridge on arrival.
