Positioned in one of Nelson’s most walkable pockets, this classic 1940s bungalow places some of the city’s most-loved spots practically on your doorstep. Founders Heritage Park, Miyazu Gardens, Neale Park, and the trail to the Centre of New Zealand are all a short stroll away — morning coffee walks, weekend markets, and sunset outings become part of everyday life. And with the CBD only minutes from home, the convenience here is exceptional.

The house itself offers a relaxed, family-friendly layout with a sun-filled open-plan living zone that draws in warmth from its north-west aspect. The modernised kitchen, gas hot water upgrade, and reconfigured floorplan — now featuring four bedrooms — ensure the home functions beautifully for a range of households. Three bedrooms are generous doubles with robes, while the fourth includes a clever mezzanine loft for extra space.

Outdoor living is inviting and varied, with decking at both the front and rear, giving you options throughout the day. The main bedroom opens directly to a sheltered patio, while raised garden beds and a mature lemon tree add charm and practicality. The property is fully insulated and the renovation work, including the creation of the fourth bedroom, is all consented and signed off.

Families will appreciate the easy access to school bus routes and the e-Bus network, while those who love to explore the city on foot or bike will find this location unmatched. It’s rare to enjoy bush surroundings and genuine walkability to so many destinations at once — a combination that elevates the lifestyle on offer.

If you're seeking a home that blends character, comfort, and one of Nelson’s most connected settings, this is one you’ll want to experience. Get in touch to arrange a viewing.
