159 Moana Avenue, Moana, Nelson

See the ships, prized location

Watch the ships come and go, see the lighthouse at night and hear the surf on the beach from this lovely, refurbished home on Nelson's prized Tahunanui hills.
With excellent level access, flat section and blessed with privacy, here's a home for families or couples who love to entertain with a vista from beach to The Cut that's sure to impress.
The location is special, minutes from town. Sling a towel over the shoulder and walk down Day's Track to the beach for a dip.
This 1976-built two-storey home has been substantially updated from top to bottom, transforming it to contemporary standards.
Almost every part of the house has been renewed, including a sparkling kitchen and refreshed bathrooms, re-designed living areas, much of the wiring and plumbing, re-gibbed walls, new flooring, new insulation and new decor including window treatments and fresh paint inside and out.
The result is an appealing, spacious home of 193sqm with modern comforts - and that spectacular vista.
The layout provides separation for adults and children, or visitors, with a master bedroom suite downstairs and two more bedrooms above; each floor with its own bathroom.
Living opens to the front patio and garden, giving space to enjoy the company of extended family and friends. The dining area has its own space, adjoining the kitchen with wonderful views from the table.
Attention to detail has been a theme in the refurbishment over several years. It's seen in the lighting inside and, particularly outside where uplights and garden lighting bring magic to balmy evening gatherings.
The section is generous at 903sqm but delightfully landscaped to minimise upkeep demands. There's generous parking at the front, plus double garage - plenty of room for boat or motorhome.
Tahunanui hills homes tend to be several decades old and original, so to find one in this desirable location with the time and expense of refurbishment already done makes it a "must see".
