Introducing

107 Totara Road, Miramar

You will know this home is special from the moment you set eyes on it!

Architecturally designed by Ted McCoy, a Dunedin architect of some note, this property combines style and flair.

Thoughtfully designed - the outside of the house is vertical board and battens with a corrugated iron roof. Inside the house features smart dark stain ply and particle board, interesting shapes, large windows with delightful vistas, cathedral ceilings and exposed beams. The quality carpet throughout the house is neutral as is the decor - to suit any style of furniture or art!

The 160 m2 property has three double bedrooms and bathroom downstairs and a lounge, open plan dining and kitchen and guest toilet upstairs. All day sun pours into the almost north facing house keeping it warm and cosy all year around!



There is easy access from the parking area to the black timber front door which is protected from the weather by an attractive glass cover. The entrance area is warm and welcoming! To the left are two of the bedrooms. Both are double bedrooms and boast good sized wardrobes and plenty of space for a table and chair and other furniture. A wide window in each room allows plenty of sunshine to pour in!

Across the entrance area is the spacious master bedroom with room for the bed plus another space for a couch or chairs and perhaps that TV – great for those winter nights watching a movie in bed! Windows provide lovely vistas out to the garden. As in the other bedrooms, this room has quality curtains and aluminium rails. Each of the bedrooms has a thermostat wall heater as fitting with the era of the house.

Three good sized bedrooms, flooded with natural light



Also off the hallway is the main bathroom. This room features a generous vanity with sliding doors that open to good storage and smart blue top - and a bath with a shower unit and toilet. Above the vanity is a wide window which lets in oodles of light and can be opened for fresh air. Next door is the laundry with a tub and back door for easy access to the garden and washing line.

Stairs sweep up from the front door to the upper level. Sun and light pour into this open area through the large, long windows. The dark stained walls dramatically contrast with the white of the ceiling and white light shades.

Stained walls dramatically contrast with the neutral carpet and white ceilings



A short open hall connects the lounge on the right and open plan dining and kitchen to the left.

Large windows, a chapel ceiling and exposed beams in the lounge combine to offer a delightful space to enjoy with the family or to entertain friends! A sliding door extends living to a compact deck which has delightful vistas to the lawn and vegetable garden. Dark timber windows, skirting and beams contrast smartly with the light decor in this room as through the rest of the house.

The dining room is similarly presented to the lounge and it too offers plenty of room for a dining table and couches or chairs. To the south end of the dining space is the kitchen - discretely separated by a half wall. A servery between the cupboards and bench means the cook can be part of the party or help with that homework while the meal is being cooked!

Sunny and cosy living



The dark stained cabinets in the kitchen contrast with the smart white Formica bench top and white drawers. Understated and elegant there is plenty of storage and bench space. Two large windows with blinds, over the sink and electric oven, provide lovely views to the greenness outside. A sliding door from the kitchen provides access to a walk in pantry.

The 842m2 section is more or less boomerang in shape and is mainly fenced with an attractive punga fence on the northern boundary. The rear area is presented mainly as a sloping lawn with mature trees including a striking cabbage tree. In the far corner is a fabulous vegetable garden just bursting with the treasures of the season.

A basement under the house provides space to store those garden tools and lawn mower. A swing from the deck provides a restful spot to sit and enjoy the quiet after a busy day or watch the children enjoy playing in this delightful space!

Understated and elegant kitchen



Access to the property is via a shared right of way drive shared with two other properties and provides tandem parking for up to four cars and a turning bay.

Miramar is one of Wellington’s south-eastern residential suburbs and has a retail centre at Miramar/Park Road. The area has excellent road networks to Wellington City Centre and public transport provided by a bus service linking to the Wellington Railway Station. It is very popular with families and there are several pre-school and primary schools plus recreational facilities and beaches nearby.

If you are looking for a property with that special factor then look no further. Move in and enjoy or maybe update to add value. Don’t delay!

The suburb of Miramar

Miramar means “Behold the Sea ”or“ Wonderful Sea” and it was named by James Coutts Crawford who was the first settler on the peninsula around 1840. Miramar was the name of the house built for him by his brother-in-law. In 1921 Miramar was incorporated into the City of Wellington.

Miramar is a suburb that lies south east of the city on Miramar peninsula. It is ideal for families and people who enjoy their sport with a choice of childcare, schools, parks and with easy access to the coast and beaches. Wellington’s leading private boys’ secondary school, Scots College, is nearby in Strathmore.

There is a good shopping centre with a supermarket, petrol station, plant nursery plus a choice of cafes. The California Garden Centre, in central Miramar, is a popular weekend outing for Wellingtonians.

Mirama also is home to Peter Jackson multi-million dollar Weta studios including sound stages and post-production facilities. Peter Jackson has won a number of prestigious awards for his movies including The Lord of the Rings trilogy, King Kong and Avatar. The area has also gained profile because Jonah Lomu recently lived in neighbouring Maupuia, which boasts many large modern houses that would be comfortable in a California film set.

There is easy access to Karaka and Worser Bay which have good swimming beaches and are very popular spots in summer. It is also a short drive to Wellington International Airport.

Miramar boasts good quality properties with newer dwellings in nearby Seatoun to the south with purchase prices of over $1,000,000.

Miramar has easy road networks to Wellington city plus good public transport that links to the Wellington Railway Station.

Steve Fejos

Born in Wellington and educated at St Patrick’s College

and Victoria University in Wellington Steve entered real

estate in August 1993, having come from a background

in property management. In January 1996 Steve was

appointed Sales Manager for Challenge Realty’s Oriental

Bay Office. Within 18 months Steve took the office into

the top 10 in the Challenge Realty Group. Steve went on

to purchase three Wellington offices in October 1997.

Over the next seven years Steve was instrumental in

growing the company from a sales team of 12 to a team

of 68 sales people with 4,000 house sales worth over

1.5 billion dollars!

Shortly after Steve sold the business he was approached

by Ray White Australia and asked to restructure their

international business model so as to increase their

competitiveness with RE/MAX. At the time over 300

sales people, in Queensland alone, had left Ray White to

join RE/MAX. In the next few years Steve played a huge

part in turning around the fortunes of Ray White and

increasing the number of sales people by over 40%.

Steve returned to New Zealand in November 2005 and

took up the role of Director of Operations for RE/MAX

New Zealand. The role was to assist broker owners and

top sales people at new and established RE/MAX offices

to implement their business plans and maintain the

momentum of the fastest growing real estate company

- the RE/MAX brand, in New Zealand and Australia.

In 2006 Steve attended a wide range of leading

international industry training seminars in Denver,

Chicago and Brisbane.

After more than 400 flights during his 3 years in his

corporate career Steve decided to resign and return

to what he loves doing most - selling real estate in

Wellington.

Steve’s extensive experience in real estate spanning

local, national and international markets is a huge

benefit to his clients. This and his innovative and unique

marketing techniques is Setting a New BENCHMARQUE

in Wellington Real Estate.

Awards received

Under the LJ Hooker brand Steve was twice winner of

the National Franchise Owner of the Year Award 2000

and 2002.

Most Productive Team Award in 2001.

National Communications Award 2002.

8th place, 2000: 5th place, 2001: 8th place, 2002: 7th

place, 2003: 10th place.

Testimonial

Gary Ahearn, Regional Director of RE/MAX Australasia

says, “Steve brings together a vast experience and

understanding of all facets of real estate. Having been

very successful in sales in the mid 1990’s Steve really

made his mark on real estate by establishing a very

credible and strong company under the L.J.Hooker

brand. The standards he set are still the standards some

offices are striving to attain to. However it is Steve’s

ability to relate to all people in the community which is

his outstanding strength.”
