Overview

'Burnside' Square-Plan 1800s Villa!

Deadline Sale closing 12pm, Wednesday 11th March 2026 (unless sold prior) 'Burnside', the former Black house, has historic and social significance for its association with John Black and his family. The dwelling represents the semi-rural lifestyle enjoyed by some of Nelson's successful commercial families at the turn of the 20th century and it appears to be the oldest surviving house in Atawhai. ----- Our vendors have genuinely enjoyed their time in this home, however they are committed to their next move, presenting a clear opportunity for purchasers in the current market. This beautifully restored late-1800s villa is now set amid a private, leafy garden in the heart of Atawhai. Lovingly restored over time, with significant updates completed within the past 20 years, this exceptional home honours its heritage while offering practical, comfortable living. Striking native timbers, both structural and decorative, showcase true craftsmanship and give the home an authenticity that is increasingly rare. Suitable for family year-round living, the home features quality insulation, a powerful log burner, two heat pumps, a replica period-style electric fireplace, Bathed in sunlight and immaculately maintained, this period property offers a convenient lifestyle within a well-established suburb. At the centre of the home is a versatile open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area that flows seamlessly outdoors. Large French-style doors open onto a sweeping wrap-around verandah, creating a natural extension of the living space and overlooking the sparkling swimming pool, ideal for entertaining or family gatherings. A separate lounge offers a quieter space to relax, read, or enjoy time with family. There are four well-proportioned double bedrooms. Two feature impressive floor-to-ceiling double sash windows, while another opens directly onto the verandah and side garden, complete with established fruit trees. A spacious family bathroom and an additional separate toilet add everyday practicality. Outdoors, the property feels private. The traditional verandah overlooks the garden and pool, while native birdsong, all-day sun, and rolling hills create a peaceful, semi-rural outlook. Practical features include two carports, shedding, and ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles, room for a boat or camper, and space for a trampoline. The fenced section provides a secure space for children and pets. Located in popular Atawhai, this home is just a short walk to the local Four Square, fish and chip shop, coffee cart, pizza bar, bus stop, and the Haven. Children can also cycle to Clifton Terrace school via the supervised Bike Bus. Timeless in character and very generous in space, this truly special home must be viewed to be appreciated.
