Located close to the centre of town, this magnificent home set on a large park like block offers you the opportunity to own one of the finest homes in Wellington.
One of the original Kimball homes built in the early twentieth century, ‘Chichester’ has been beautifully maintained and updated into a superbly presented Federation home. Features of the period include large rooms, decorative pressed metal and plaster ceilings, solid double brick construction, picture rails and 11’ ceilings. To complement these features the owners have added a new large kitchen and living area boasting modern finishings and appliances, blending new with old in a style sympathetic to the buildings heritage.
A large park like garden featuring mature deciduous trees allows for comfortable shady outdoor relaxation. Recent plantings of Chinese Maple trees have been made with a view to the years to come. An onsite bore provides ample water to maintain the large lawn area, as well as the large vegetable garden.
Outdoor entertaining has been well catered for with an undercover outdoor kitchen & BBQ area complete with stove, sink, ceiling fans, electric heating and lighting. Tradesmen, car enthusiasts and collectors will fall head over heels for the ample secure shed space. Up to 12 vehicles can be comfortably accommodated within the two large American style barns, with skillions attached, featuring 3 phase and single phase power, concrete floors and wool insulation as well as automatic lighting.
Very few opportunities arise where one can capitalize on a development opportunity while also securing a classic home where not a cent is to be spent on refurbishment.
