Just one block back from the beach, this ultra-cute semi-detached villa sits proudly on its own freehold title and offers an increasingly rare opportunity to secure a three-bedroom home in one of Wellington's most loved seaside suburbs. With Island Bay Village, local schools and the South Coast all within easy walking distance, the lifestyle on offer here is hard to beat.
Inside, the home blends classic villa character with modern comfort. The layout is flexible and inviting, with three generous bedrooms — or the option to use the front room as a second living space or work-from-home zone. Open-plan living and dining create a relaxed hub, while the modern kitchen connects easily to the rear garden, making everyday living and entertaining effortless.
Step outside to a sunny, private back garden - a sheltered spot for barbecues, long summer evenings and unwinding after a day at the beach. Previous updates mean you can move straight in and enjoy, while still leaving scope to add your own touches over time.
Key features include:
- Semi-detached villa on its own freehold title
- Three double bedrooms, or flexible second living option
- Open-plan living and dining
- Modern kitchen with direct access to the rear garden
- Renovated bathroom

With its beach-chic appeal, walk-to-everything location and excellent potential, this home will suit a wide range of buyers - from first-home buyers and young families to downsizers and investors looking for a foothold in Island Bay.
Close to the city yet immersed in coastal living, this is a home that offers both lifestyle and long-term appeal.
