Elegant Villa Nestled In The Trees

A turn of the century villa with an interesting history! For it's first 30 years it was the 2nd story of one of the areas original farmsteads before being split from the ground level and relocated 100m north to where it sits today.
Privately nestled in amongst heritage trees on a large section you could be mistaken for being in the country.
Lovingly renovated and restored in 2019, this beautiful 3 bedroom/2 bathroom villa now offers the perfect mix of modern conveniences and original features.

The house was built throughout with Rimu (a NZ native hardwood) but had been covered up with carpets, vinyl or paint for years. Post renovation the Rimu has been set free. Wooden floors restored, doors & trim stripped back and new benchtops installed in the kitchen and bathrooms.
Fully equipped modern kitchen with a center island making it great for cooking and entertaining.
2 large lounges located on opposite sides of the house, making one a great morning spot to catch the rising sun through the trees and the other for the afternoon setting sun.
High ceilings, central heating, 2 fireplaces and outdoor patio dining makes this a very comfortable house both inside and out.
Note: A security camera operates in the front entry area.

Leafy paradise

Wonderful place to stay. Access a bit steep (stairs) and uneven (concrete path with an occasional step) for elderley - most of us were close to or over 80. But spacious living conditions more than compensated. Lovely warm central heating and real fire places - we struck some quite cool weather. Thank you Tom and Taya

Kapa Haka Parents

We were a group of 5 parents in Nelson to watch our children perform in the National kapa haka comp. The house was perfect for us had everything we needed. Easy to keep tidy, very clean. While we were there it was very cold at night so the heating system was a savior.

Lovely Home

This was a beautiful home for myself and four friends to stay at while visiting Nelson. The kitchen was very well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, etc. to cook meals with. It was a quiet location and easy to get to. Unfortunately, it rained during our stay so we couldn’t go outside and enjoy the surroundings, but we were able to build a fire in one of the two fireplaces and enjoy an evening inside instead. The home was very clean. Beds and seating areas were very comfortable as well. We’d definitely stay here again! Thank you Tim and Taya for being such wonderful hosts!

The house is absolutely beautiful and the property is very private. We wished we could take the house “home” with us. The hosts were very accommodating and extremely helpful when one of our party couldn’t travel due to a family emergency. We definitely would recommend the house to friends.
