105-107 Lee Street Street

Originally constructed as part of Wellington's earlier commercial and community landscape, 105-107 Lee Street carries the unmistakable character of a bygone era. From its commanding proportions and soaring ceilings through to its grand internal scale, the building reflects a time when structures were built to make a statement and stand the test of time. While the façade today presents as a little weathered and wonderfully honest to its age, stepping inside reveals a transformation that is nothing short of spectacular. What has been achieved internally is an extraordinary blend of history, creativity and contemporary living. Reimagined from its original ingredients, the property now delivers an expansive and highly flexible floor plan offering up to five bedrooms including a downstairs self-contained section ideal for extended family, guests or additional accommodation potential. The three bathrooms are all newly completed and beautifully blend contemporary styling with subtle period charm, complementing the character of the building while delivering modern functionality. The generously proportioned bedrooms comfortably accommodate queen-size beds and include built-in wardrobes, each space reflecting a modern contemporary flavour. At the heart of the home is the enormous open-plan living domain which was once utilised as a meeting hall. The sheer scale is hard to comprehend until experienced in person, with oversized furniture, large dining settings and multiple living zones still appearing to occupy only a fraction of the available space. Timber floorboards, soaring ceilings, lovely colour palettes and statement lighting combine beautifully with the humungous kitchen featuring ultra-modern appliances, extensive bench space and an abundance of storage. Adding further appeal is the rear entertaining porch overlooking the expansive grounds together with side driveway access leading to a double lock-up machinery shed. The allotment itself is currently progressing through Land Titles processing which has further enhanced the rear dimensions of the property, creating a total site area of approximately 1,200sqm. Positioned right in the middle of town, convenience is simply outstanding with shops, cafés and everyday services only moments away. This is a property where history meets contemporary living, where imagination has been pushed to the absolute maximum, and where the result is unlike anything else currently available in Wellington. Here is an opportunity not to be missed, contact Gary Francis for further information. * Images reflect properties at the time when the photos were taken or in some cases at an earlier point to accommodate the privacy of the tenant or owner.
