Designed to capture outstanding uninterrupted views of the mountains, sea, city and bush-covered hills, this beautifully finished home has a strong contemporary identity and is a salute to the sun. Well-insulated and double-glazed, this light-filled residence has excellent indoor-outdoor flow, stays cosy in winter and naturally cool with sea breezes in summer.
The two generously proportioned living areas have extra-large ranch sliders opening to the al fresco entertainment deck and balcony which are enclosed by a glass balustrade, allowing unimpeded vistas of sunrises, sunsets, twinkling city lights and the sea - all the way to Separation Point.
The spacious, sunny sitting room has a heat pump and is a sweet spot for coffee and conversation. The adjoining lounge can be closed off with sliding doors, creating a tranquil retreat for movies, reading or afternoon naps. The gleaming white kitchen has stainless steel appliances, double-door fridge-freezer, ceramic cooktop, a pantry, enough cupboards to keep the chef happy, and a breakfast bar for snacks and chats.
Quiet and private, the master bedroom catches morning sun, has balcony doors, a walk-in custom closet and a pristine en-suite with underfloor heating and luxurious, tiled double shower. The other three bedrooms are carpeted with blinds, closets with built-in shelving and pretty sea and garden views.
The family bathroom has underfloor heating, a tiled shower and a bath, and there's a separate toilet with hand basin. The laundry area has a handy backdoor to the clothes line and plenty of storage.
The landscaped garden, full of birdsong, is low maintenance with thoughtful planting that hasn't sacrificed beauty. Productive fig, plum, apple, feijoa and lemon trees mingle with flax and other natives.
Located in a peaceful sought-after neighbourhood, this architecturally pleasing property is close to walking trails and a 10 minute drive to Nelson CBD, this home perfectly balances modern style and family comfort.
