16b Hamerton Street, Naenae, Lower Hutt

A Hidden Gem

Nestled at the end of a driveway surrounded by beautiful natives on the former grounds of the historic Balgownie estate, this delightful 1890s Grand Villa was relocated from its proud position on Oriental Parade to its current site looking out over the Waiwhetu stream and reserve. A great family home, the four bedroom house retains many original period features including high ceilings, stunning stained glass windows, and its historic staircase.

The lower level includes a kitchen, dining room and multiple living areas, all with outdoor flow through french doors onto wrap around decking. There's an additional toilet and laundry under the original staircase. Upstairs features four bedrooms, including a master bedroom with an ensuite, walk in wardrobe and outdoor flow onto deck with space to appreciate the view with a morning coffee. Upstairs also includes a family bathroom with a gorgeous claw-foot bath, shower and toilet. Fully modernised on its relocation with up-to-date electrics and plumbing, under-floor insulation and a strengthened roof, it offers a high standard of finish. The present owners have equipped it with high-specification solar panels supported by a Tesla Powerwall battery and a dedicated EV charging station supporting high-power fast charging.
