111 Bartlett Road, Hope, Richmond, Tasman, Nelson / Tasman

Why settle for less when you can have it all here. In the sought-after Hope district, you will find this gorgeous family home on 1.13ha of flat low maintenance lifestyle land with an orchard for a neighbour.

Five generous bedrooms, each enjoy their own outlook and three have their own large french doors to capture the sun, all with built-in wardrobes, and of course, the master enjoys a large walk in wardrobe and stunning ensuite. There is also a large separate laundry room and a dedicated storage room as well.

The large designer kitchen offers high spec Smeg appliances, and you will not be left out of it all, with the open plan design to the main living area. If you are wanting everyone out of the way while you cook or just want some quite space to yourself, the home also offers a great second lounge.

When the owners built this elegant home, they did really think about everything, from the location of the sun, mountain views, layout, privacy, separate wing for the master room, and a modern home that offers you the best of both worlds - upmarket country living! The spacious barbeque area with outdoor open fire offers you the perfect place to unwind with friends and family beside the saltwater pool.

In the summer your children will have all their friends around for swimming, or exploring the great garden and paddocks and enjoying all the space on offer. The land has been fenced into five paddocks, a neighbours cows currently graze in one. There is also a barn with a lockable workshop or garage, and a stable with shoeing area. The orchard will keep you well supplied with fruit offering apricots, plums, nectarines, peaches and grapefruit plus so much more.

Families looking at lifestyle properties often have travelling distance in mind when it comes to the children's extra curricula activities, early morning practices and weekend sports, that is where the close proximity of this property comes into its own.

Just a stone throw from Richmond for everything you could need, or maybe take a left and head to Rabbit Island or Rough Island with the horse, or just to enjoy the beach, also a short drive to Mapua with its cafes and shops.

This property will be popular - homes that offer this blend of country lifestyle and convenience do not come to market often.
