18 Huia Road, Days Bay, Lower Hutt City, Wellington

Words and pictures just cannot do justice to this home, without doubt one of the very best of the best. What started as a dream to have a castle up in the treetops has been constructed by one of the very best European joiner and craftsman, to absolute perfection.

The journey up through the beech trees and forest brings you to the landing platform and level walkway to the front door and the treasures within. The spectacular kitchen features a soaring 3.8m ceiling above the huge island bench with wonderful storage, a glorious window seat with the backdrop of beech. High end lighting and appliances abound, as does the bespoke cupboards drawers and fittings that you would expect. Adjacent is the dining space bathed in light from the conservatory style custom designed roof above, complete with electric opening fanlight windows.

Numerous sets of doors open out to extensive decking and BBQ and outdoor dining, all enjoying the views through the trees to the harbour, out to Days Bay and Petone, or back to Wellington City. In addition to the imported German tilt and turn double glazed joinery throughout, this open plan living space has a high spec wood burner which also provides a wetback for additional hot water, in addition to Gas and Solar.

A separate lounge and TV/Media room, again with excellent storage, has the magic hidden door that takes you up to the top level that takes your breath away and then calms you with its serenity. Used currently as a library, yoga and stretch room, this would be an inspirational space for artists and writers and dreamers, in complete privacy.

All four bedrooms are generous rooms with access to decks, heating and excellent built-in storage. The primary bedroom has a very well equipped ensuite with Sauna, double sinks and large walk in shower. A bespoke laundry room, plant room/gym/dry storage, and a guest powder room are all finished with high level functionality and precision as you would expect.

Genuinely for sale by negotiation, the relocating vendors have loved living in their dream all within an easy commute to Wellington by Ferry or car, and are proud to pass this very special treasure on to new owners.
