Your hillside retreat!

Perched high on the hill above Putiki Drive is this very unique, light and airy post-modern three bedroom home, with an additional home office and a sauna room which is now offered for sale. North facing, this property gets maximum sun throughout the day and sits amongst established native trees with expansive views of the Whanganui River and the CBD - the city lights provide a stunning view making summer nights relaxing on the deck something to envy. A little bit of Wellington in Whanganui, this charming home has no direct vehicle access and is entered from either Putiki Drive, via the steps to the left of the Braeburn Apartments, or the public pathway from Hipango Terrace above. This property will appeal to those wanting a home that's a little outside the box, or this could be a perfect holiday let with Victoria Avenue, restaurants, cafes and retail less than 5 minutes walk away. The bones of this property are good and for someone with the right vision and drive, there is plenty of scope for adding value. This is the affordable, centrally located, hillside sanctuary you've been searching for! Call us today for more information and viewing options.
