68 Friend Street Karori, Wellington City

Perfectly positioned on one of Karori's most admired streets, 68 Friend Street makes an instant impression, a beautiful character bungalow where history and modern design sit comfortably side by side.

At the heart of the home is a bespoke kitchen, generous in both space and spirit. With two ovens, a six-hob gas cooktop, and a central island that naturally draws people in, it's a space where life unfolds from lazy weekend brunches to late-night conversations over a glass of wine.

Beyond the glass doors, the private garden opens into a leafy, sun-soaked retreat. Decks, courtyards, and quiet sitting spots make this a home that truly celebrates time outdoors. There's even a spa, a greenhouse, and a vegetable garden.

Each bedroom has been designed with a sense of calm and retreat. The master suite, with wall-to-wall custom storage and double glazing, is a haven of order and peace. Upstairs, the spacious bedroom with skylights and tree-top views feels like a secret hideaway. Two well-appointed bathrooms, one elegant and indulgent, the other practical and well-placed complete the picture.

Comfort is woven through every detail: Double glazed, centrally heated, insulated and internal-access, carpeted garage that keeps daily life effortless.

Set in peaceful, sought-after Friend Street and zoned for Wellington College, Wellington Girls' College, and Karori Normal School, this is a home that offers not just comfort, but connection to the neighbourhood, to nature, and to the easy rhythm of life that makes Karori living easy.
