RENOVATED, EXTENDED & MODERNISED SPACIOUS PETONE HOME

HIGH $500,000's

In a quiet tree lined Street in the popular Wilford Block of Petone where many homes have sold well into the $700,000's we now offer this much more affordable, solidly build home 1920's home which was extended in the same quality and style 10 years ago with the help of a very cleaver architect who created a wonderful environment for this growing family who have absolutely loved living here.

They have loved the generous sized, fully fenced rear yard for the children's play and pets and an unusual feature for Petone, mature vegetation to soften the feel of the yard whilst creating privacy.

The home itself has all the qualities of its 1920's construction including superb native timbers which were also used extensively in its substantial recent extension.

The architect did a wonderful job in creating a very practical flow in this home - this is sometimes difficult to achieve in homes which have been extended.

From the front entrance is a long hallway with its gleaming polished floors.

There are 3 really large bedroom to the left of the hall two of which have great wardrobes and the house have exceptional storage space for a home of this age.
The master bedroom has a bay window and window seat and a quality ensuite. The 2nd modern bathroom boast a 2 person spa bath and 2nd separate shower box. The laundry is separate and spacious.

There is a large formal living room immediately to the right of the entrance hall with very wide double doors to a spacious dining room which is open plan to the kitchen.

The kitchen was rebuilt, has wonderful bench space, great storage and all mod cons and very sociable having visual assess to the dining and the adjoining family room which leads out of French doors to a deck and the rear lawn.

This lovely home and the convenience of its access to Lower Hutt and Petone's shops, cafes, schools, the train and bus, beach, public swimming pool and recreational grounds have aided a wonderful lifestyle for this family and it can now all be yours.
