81 Adelaide Street, Petone, Lower Hutt City, Wellington

This charming 1930s Art Deco home has total privacy in both its front and rear yards. The frontage overlooks the village green, a great spot for the family to kick a ball around or have a game of cricket, a very special feature for a Petone Home in the affordable price range. Electric door openers for both the garage/workshop and the carport, and the large fence along the front boundary, provide for a total of 4 cars parked securely off the road. Also hidden in this area is a very large garden shed. The roof of this renovated home was replaced eight years ago, and in 2025, new thermally broken double-glazed aluminium windows were installed. This home also showcases the popular layout of a modern kitchen, being an open-plan space with the dining and living areas. French doors from the living areas open to a covered sun porch with sides that can be pulled down in wet weather or rolled up to extend the adjoining decking. All, creating a wonderful space for larger casual gatherings in the sun. We are told that on colder nights, the warmth of the heat pump in the living room extends out to the enclosed sunporch, a great help when extended family or friends come around, and the weather turns bad. The modern bathroom has the added advantage over most affordable Petone homes, having both a bath and a shower box. The toilet is also separate. The rear yard has space for raised veg/herb plots, but it is small enough not to require constant attention. You will just love the mature fruit trees, Grapes, Feijoa, Nectarine, Guava, Plum (2 varieties) and Olive trees, which help with the food budget, provide health benefits and add ambience to your environment. Also in the rear yard, you will find a brick fireplace with a chimney for your enjoyment when sitting outside, especially in the cooler evenings. Just when you thought Petone was out of your price range, you can now enjoy all of the

advantages as above. Plus, the easy walk to Petone waterfront or down to Jackson Street with all its wonderful shops, cafes, bars, library and movie theatre. There is also a golf course 5 minutes drive away. You will enjoy easy access into Wellington driving or cycling via the Esplanade and, in the opposite direction, to the Eastern Bays or anywhere in the Hutt Valley via the Hutt Valley River trail or Randwick Road. Public transport is just around the corner to the 81,84, and 130 bus routes or 5 minutes away to the 83 and 110 routes. The current family have loved the convenience and ease of living here over the past 10 years; however, they are now on the hunt for something more suitable for their current requirements.
