With a charming transitional villa renovated with modern comforts, a swimming pool, fabulous city-side location and the opportunity for rental income, there's so much to love about this wonderful property.
This is prize real estate, situated in the lovely Seymour Avenue heritage precinct, with city and schools so close and the Brook stream burbling below your back fence.
The home of four bedrooms plus sleepout and loads of covered off-street parking, exudes street appeal behind its wrought iron gate. All the character of a century-old home (original floorboards, leadlights and high ceilings) is there but with a large rear addition opening to deck overlooking the salt-water pool.
Substantial renovations included new electricals and plumbing, double-glazed windows, and floors and ceiling spaces thoroughly insulated (plus two heat pumps added).
A large outbuilding in keeping with the home's architecture was also added (in 2014), providing a sleepout complete with ensuite. This is a teen's dream, a visitor's getaway, or a chance for B&B income.
Solar power from roof panels and tubes is another desirable feature of the home, powering the hot water cylinder as well as the electrical supply. A security system is fitted and there's rainwater collection for the garden. The house also has a water filtration system!
It's a cracking family home, with schools within walking or biking distance, enough lawn and garden for relaxation and, of course, the pool with open summer house adjoining. Summer days are magic in the backyard, with views to the Brook Stream waters.
A strongly built carport in the style of the house can house three vehicles. High roof giving option to house a campervan or caravan with power.
Seymour Ave has one of Nelson's finest arrays of early 20th century architecture and its tree-lined avenue is a proud neighbourhood. Here's your chance to become part of this lovely area of town.
