29 Waipapa Road, Hataitai, Wellington

Positioned for sun, outlook, and privacy

Positioned privately and elevated for sweeping north west and west facing views across Hataitai towards Mount Victoria and Brooklyn, 29 Waipapa Road enjoys exceptional sun and a peaceful outlook from morning through to sunset. Built in 1914, this character villa is defined by soaring ceilings, generous proportions, and the craftsmanship of its era. Carefully maintained over time, with recent upgrades including remotely controlled central heating and refreshed flooring, this is a unique character home with a sense of grandeur.

Living is arranged across multiple spaces, offering flexibility for families, professionals, or those seeking room to grow. High ceilings enhance light and volume, while a generous central hallway connects the home and preserves privacy between rooms. Formal dining provides a welcoming setting for gatherings, before retreating to the expansive central living room that forms the heart of the home. Gorgeous art nouveau fireplaces and stained glass windows add warmth and authenticity, while ample storage supports everyday practicality.

Currently configured as three bedrooms and three living areas, the home is supported by a family bathroom, an eat-in kitchen that enjoys morning sun, and a separate laundry with powder room. The versatile floor plan offers scope to reimagine over time, including the potential to utilise the west facing drawing room as a fourth bedroom or study if desired.

Outdoors, the elevated, fully fenced and gated backyard provides a private setting for relaxed evenings and weekend barbecues, allowing you to enjoy the setting sun directly ahead. Step onto the verandah from the drawing room for a peaceful place to unwind, book in hand, accompanied by birdsong.

A single garage provides off street parking, while Hataitai Village is close at hand for everyday amenities, with a bus stop steps away for easy commuting. Hataitai School is 300m away. Whether by bike, car or via frequent public transport, downtown is comfortably within reach. The airport, Evans Bay Parade, and Hataitai Beach are all only minutes away. The nearby Town Belt provides access to walking and mountain biking trails, along with a natural green backdrop that brings birdlife and a sense of calm to daily living. Several recreational parks and sporting facilities complete a location that balances city convenience with outdoor lifestyle.
