26 Hastings Street, Washington Valley, Nelson

Classic park-side city cottage

"What a beauty!" A great start, or perfect rental. Whichever way you look at her she's a winner. Refreshed and beautifully presented, she's one of a select row of timber cottages skirting the city's Pioneer Park beneath a row of huge London Plain Trees, with Supermarket and CBD moments away. For decades this almost invisible little street hid in plain view, biding her time. And her time has come. Traffic-calming, underground wiring, stormwater all going in, the park accessorised, and demand for city-fringe never so high.
With all that's happening in NZ right now one might think "now's not a good time, better hunker-down". Maybe, but if you've already learnt that opportunities come ready or not, you'll visit 26 Hastings Street. ASAP. Freehold (love it!). Two-bedrooms plus office/nursery/or third-single. Modernised kitchen and bathroom. Insulated top and bottom. Freestanding wood burner (completely warming this sweetheart in minutes). Single garage beneath (maybe you won't use your car much?). Terraced gardens, with potential for flowers, fruit and veges up the back. Already meeting all the new tenancy regulations (toasty warm and dry) you'll immediately see yourselves living here.
