This truly is the good life! A bespoke property situated in Nelson's best kept secret, "The Glen." An easy, scenic 15 minute commute from the CBD and a world away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Imagine being able to lie in bed gazing at the sparkling waters of Tasman Bay. On a great day watching pods of dolphins frolic by. Cargo vessels and fishing boats coming and going- there's always something to see! Wander down the road to the water front and catch up with locals. Perhaps join the bathers, kayakers and surfers or maybe take a stroll along the Boulder Bank. Wander up the road to the start of the Cable Bay walkway. It doesn't get much better than this! Properties in The Glen are tightly held but every now and then a gem comes to the market! Privately positioned back off the road in landscaped, north-facing gardens. This is your oasis. The grey stucco house with its red clay roof has a hint of the Mediterranean about it. Originally a simple bach built in 1948, it had a major permitted overhaul in the 1980s. In more recent years a complete refurbishment now offers a relaxed contemporary coastal vibe. Open plan living/kitchen/dining flow seamlessly out to the north-facing veranda for alfresco dining. There are 3 sizeable bedrooms, (2 being upstairs attic rooms), a sunny landing upstairs with window seat plus another living space that flows out to the garden. The amenities are all modern and hi spec. There is a separate, light filled, north-facing workshop with mezzanine floor to develop or leave as is for masses of additional storage. The Glen enjoys a microclimate enabling our owners to plant fruit trees, a small citrus grove, organic herb and vege gardens. Terraces and decks create fantastic spots to relax and enjoy the amazing sea, bush and mountain views. Step outside at night and be awed by the clarity of the milky way. Sounds like the answer to your dreams?
