Nature on your doorstep. City at your fingertips.

Positioned in one of Nelson's most sought-after locations, just moments from the city and the beautiful Maitai River, this charming character bungalow presents an exceptional opportunity to secure an outstanding home with the scope to add further value.

Imagine spending summer days swimming in the river, enjoying family picnics beneath the trees, exploring the nearby nature playground, or wandering the scenic walking and cycling trails. It's a lifestyle that families cherish and one that is rarely available.

Bathed in sunshine and surrounded by a magnificent canopy of mature trees, the home enjoys spacious, light-filled living and a spectacular, ever-changing outlook that creates the feeling of your very own private treehouse. Peaceful, private, and incredibly unique, this breathtaking setting is seldom found so close to the city.

The generous open-plan dining and lounge area is designed to maximise natural light and showcase the stunning surroundings, while the refreshed kitchen enjoys a sunny aspect and opens effortlessly onto a private deck - the perfect place to entertain family and friends or simply relax immersed in nature.

Offering four bedrooms, including three generous doubles and a versatile single bedroom or home office, there's flexibility for families of all sizes. The master bedroom features its own ensuite, while the spacious downstairs double bedroom also enjoys a private ensuite and separate entrance, making it ideal for extended family, guests, teenagers, or those working from home. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the home.

Year-round comfort is assured with a pellet fire and heat pump, while outside you'll find a double garage with internal access, a workshop, and ample off-street parking.

Already an exceptional home, there is exciting potential to renovate, modernise, and add further value over time, allowing you to enhance what is already an outstanding property while preserving its character and making the most of its remarkable setting.

Whether you're searching for a family home to enjoy for years to come or an opportunity to unlock even greater potential, this is a rare chance to secure a truly special property where character, lifestyle, nature, and future possibilities come together.

A rating valuation is the council's figure for apportioning rates, not a market appraisal. Sale prices are as published; a code beside a price is the council's sale type — hover it for what it means. “Off the market” only means the property stopped being advertised: it may have sold, been withdrawn or moved to another agency.

If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.

Free. Takes about a minute.

We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.

What claiming gets you
1One live recordCouncil valuation, title details and registered interests, kept current rather than gathered again every time you need them.

3Providers compete for itPut the mortgage, the insurance and the power out to people who want the business — on your terms, when you ask.
4Everything else you ownOne search finds other titles in your name and in companies you are a director of.

Zoning and hazards

What could you build here?

See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
