A cherished home with unrivalled, perfect Tasman Bay views in one of Nelson's most sought-after locations. This serene and secluded residence, loved for over 50 years by the same owner, presents a rare opportunity for discerning buyers.
Originally built in 1910, this light-filled home is an opportunity in the making! With thoughtful remodelling and modernizing the interior, you can make your mark and live the dream - commanding the best views Nelson has to offer!
Expansive picture windows frame panoramic views encompassing the glistening blue Tasman Bay, Tahunanui Beach, Haulashore Island, The Cut, and the Boulder Bank Lighthouse. Glass doors open to patios and decks - perfect for soaking up the sparkling scenery to the mountains beyond.
The spacious kitchen, which features traditional touches like a gleaming copper range hood and Rimu cabinetry, opens to an alfresco dining deck. The well-proportioned living and dining area, with its cathedral ceiling, flows through bi-fold doors to a sun-drenched patio. Three double bedrooms are on this level - two have ensuite bathrooms, and the third, easily convertible to another lounge, has a glass slider to a deck. The family bathroom exudes retro charm, complete with a luxurious claw-foot bath as its centrepiece. A generous laundry with a washer and dryer, as well as a dedicated storage room complete the first floor.
A renovation in 1991 realised a new roof, piles, and an extension at level one - plus, the addition of the sunlit second level, that serves as a private studio with a flexible layout and customization options. A multi-purpose office and sitting room includes a heat pump, prep kitchen, and glass door to a garden deck. The generous bedroom, where you can sit up in bed and watch the ships sail through the harbour entrance, has a vaulted ceiling, custom closets, a heat pump and built-in custom furniture; a slider to a balcony provides sweeping seascapes. And there’s a modern bathroom, featuring a walk-in shower and toilet.
Outside, the lush, tiered garden is beautifully designed with brickwork, paths, a gazebo and vibrant plantings. A double garage with an electric door and an equipment shed complete this exceptional property.
