About this property

Townhouse in Historic Thorndon

Tucked away in a tranquil neighborhood, this modern townhouse is just a short and easy stroll from the historic village of Thorndon, which offers a delightful array of restaurants, cafes, and shops. Additionally, it's a quick walk to the supermarket, chemist, and Wellington's bustling Lambton Quay.

We're currently updating our photos to reflect recent improvements. A new kitchen featuring modern appliances has been installed, and we've added additional furniture in the lounge to ensure your short stay in Wellington is as comfortable as possible.

Our accommodation includes two bedrooms: one with a super comfy queen bed and the other with two single beds. Both rooms are equipped with quality linen, and the main bedroom boasts a stunning view.

Wellington Adventure

This property in located in Thornton which is a residential neighbourhood close to downtown. The townhouse complex is built on a steep hillside and it reminded me of a Japanese village. The unit is very well equipped with two bedrooms and a full bath upstairs and a full kitchen and living room and a half bath and laundry on the main level. The townhouse was very clean and comfortable. Given its location And the unpredictable weather in Wellington, I would highly recommend having a car in this location to get around . The one challenge for this property is the extremely tight parking spot that comes with the unit. A small compact car was challenging enough when the parking lot was full. For a large vehicle best of luck.

Great house, great location, happy guests

We were very happy staying at Deb's house. It was very clean, beautifully decorated and very comfortable to be in. It would be difficult for people who could not manage stairs, but we managed just fine (age 65+). The walk down the hill to Tinakori Road was easy, and that took us to several different restaurants, and the No 2 bus that took us into town. We also enjoyed wandering round the Botanic Gardens which were just a little further up Tinakori Rd. The special treat was the homemade chocolate chippie bikkies! Thanks Deb.
