288 Trafalgar Street, Nelson.
Set high on the gently rolling hills above Marybank, this stunning property is all about 'magnificence'. From its well-planned, spacious design to its breath-taking sea views and glorious gardens, the property is now quite the bird sanctuary - 28 years in the making.
The lovingly cared-for home has been regularly up-dated with modern amenities, fittings and decor by the family who have called it 'home' since 1991. New carpet has been laid in the living areas, the well-appointed kitchen is just 18 months old, double-glazing has been installed in every room (apart from the bathroom/toilet and laundry) and the joinery in the living areas, kitchen and bedrooms has been completely replaced, inside and out.
The exterior of this house, built in 1980, was painted five years ago in natural tones, mindfully chosen to blend with the surrounding landscape. The bedrooms and living areas have been smartly modernised with neutral wallpaper and paired sun-filter and privacy roller blinds.
An attractive gas fire warms the living areas and an HRV ventilation system works efficiently throughout both levels. This is a substantial four (or five) bedroom home; its wonderfully spacious lower level has its own entrance, where the addition of a shower and vanity alongside the existing toilet would create ideal bed and breakfast accommodation.
Once you get outside, it gets even better. The gardens are recognised locally as a beautiful and lush sanctuary, created with an abundance of honey-bee and bird-attracting plants. Today, bellbirds, tui, fantails, wax-eyes and kereru are daily visitors.
