Some properties just seem to know who they want living in them as if they can 'call' their new owners.

19 Avonbank Place is such a property. It's a subtle combination of bespoke architectural comfort, class, and convenience.

Positioned in middle Atawhai with sun, sea views and an easy zip to the city. This home is the answer to: 'How can we downsize without the down?' or 'Where is that home that lets us live near the city, is close to the sea, and we can leave for weeks at a time?' or I need a quiet classy retreat?'. It's the sun-filled atrium, warm and welcoming. The vaulted Rimu-lined ceilings lifting eyes and spirits to gaze across Nelson's blue-on-blue bay. A quiet, gently split-level layout with subtle angles and marvelous use of space, all occupying an elevated site in the sun. With seclusion, space, light, and three beautiful bedrooms, two bathrooms (master ensuite of course), open-plan kitchen-dining flowing to a totally private BBQ side patio, a formal lounge with sliders to a sun-soaked front patio, a large double internal garage with enormous potential for mezzanine storage and a dedicated workshop with the third toilet. This may be the one. Surrounded by trim and easy-care gardens this home offers the perfect combination for an active retirement, executive living, or a part-time residence in the summer months.
