Originally built in 1876 this gorgeous homestead was sympathetically and lovingly extended in 2000 by a master boat builder who later built the cottage, garage (recently renovated) and barn to blend seamlessly with the original farmhouse.
Whitefriars exudes charm and ambience and enjoys an idyllic setting close to the friendly, historic village of Wakefield and is minutes from the Tasman Cycle trail.
The grounds have been lovingly developed and are especially varied and beautiful.

With it's many possibilities ranging from passive income to a potential wedding venue, Whitefriars offers the perfect balance between heart and head and all of this is within 30 minutes easy commute to central Nelson and 15 minutes to Richmond, the hub of the Tasman District.
