18 Portland Crescent, Thorndon, Wellington
SUPREME LANDMARK VILLA

Even after 25-years in real estate, this is the best renovation of a dual dwelling historic villa that I have ever seen! Nestled in an unrivalled location, just a stroll from Parliament, the waterfront, and Wellington's vibrant CBD, this 1902 Edwardian icon has been meticulously reimagined as two luxurious three-bedroom apartments. It's the ultimate upscale investment, home and income haven, extended-family retreat, consultancy offices or co-ownership gem in one of the capital's most coveted enclaves. Some even refer to this location as the “Downing Street of Wellington”.

- Two elegant Edwardian apartments that have been superbly restored and modernised from top to bottom, each with three double-bedrooms and exquisitely tiled bathrooms with underfloor heating

- Seamless blend of character and comfort, from high ceilings and new sash windows to double-glazing and heat pumps

- Superb street appeal and a fine example of its 1902 architecture, complete with turret, balconies and bay windows to optimise lovely views of the Tinakori Hills

- Huge bonus of compartmentalised basement with multiple options for everything from storage to studio space

- Wonderful proximity to the motorway, Parliament and The Golden Mile, so perfect for professionals and executives seeking easy access for work and weekend getaways

- Off-street parking for two cars in a quiet, exclusive cul-de-sac where there's ample residents' parking as well

- RV $1,900,000

Originally home to the prominent Portland Crescent namesake family, this rejuvenated landmark offers refined living for parliamentarians, family trusts, savvy investors, or those seeking unmatched quality and location. This rare gem won't last—view Sunday to seize this opportunity.
