Country Home in Prime City Location
A country home, moved to the middle of the city. All on one floor, no stairs anywhere, and views from every main room.
The QT is a boutique hotel of real character, and living above it changes the shape of a day. Staff at the door 24 hours. Room service. A restaurant and bar downstairs. Housekeeping whenever you want it. A pool, a gym and a sauna. A serious collection of New Zealand art through the foyers and corridors. The staff are excellent, and before long they know you.
Courtenay Place is an easy walk, with most of the city’s bus routes running through it. Wellington’s best restaurants are closer still. Te Papa and the waterfront, minutes away.
Upstairs on level 7 is another world. Elegant country style, 207sqm of it. The formal dining room seats eight in comfort, the harbour framed in the window beside it. Living opens off it, anchored by a carved mantel and electric fire, with a granite servery keeping the cook in the conversation. Cornices, panelling and fitted joinery run throughout. The detailing was done properly.
North-facing, and from the balcony: Waitangi Park and Chaffers Marina below, the eastern hills across the water, Oriental Bay beyond.
Three bedrooms, three bathrooms. The main suite sits privately at the far end, with its own harbour outlook, walk-in robe and ensuite. The guest bedroom has an ensuite of its own. The third is a fitted library and snug (with guest sofa bed), shelved wall to wall, robes behind for when family stay.
Granite and maple kitchen with a walk-in scullery. Separate laundry. Bar off the dining room. A proper entry foyer. Two secure covered car parks, each with a storage cupboard. Who could ask for more?
