250 Lud Valley Road, Hira, Nelson, Nelson / Tasman

A picture-perfect, highly adaptable lifestyle property, just a twenty-minute scenic drive from Nelson, offering peace, privacy, and plenty of accommodation. This exceptional property includes a beautifully renovated family home off-set from the road, plus a separate three-bedroom cottage - ideal for guests and multigenerational living.

Stunning valley views and a mature garden anchor the serene main residence, which is well-insulated, double-glazed, and has central heating and an HRV system. The dreamy designer kitchen has bi-fold doors to the patio and is superbly equipped with a five-burner gas cooktop, three ovens, two integrated dishwashers, a fridge-freezer, and custom cabinetry. The carpeted living room has an original coffered ceiling and a large wood burner with a tiled surround.

The tranquil main bedroom has glass doors to the garden lawn, a walk-in custom robe and a tiled ensuite with a shower - the nearby native forest provides privacy and beautiful morning birdsong. There are two other carpeted double bedrooms with double closets - one has wide window seating. Luxuriously styled, the family bathroom features a walk-in shower, clawfoot bath, underfloor heating and elegant tiling. There’s a separate laundry with a tub, folding bench and storage. Special touches in the home include a piano alcove, hidden office cubby, original leadlight windows, and a sunny breakfast verandah.

The three garages, multiple utility and woodsheds and sleep-out offer much flexibility. The grounds feature a fenced vegetable garden, a fruit tree area, productive raised beds, mature trees, extensive native plantings - 4,000 trees and shrubs planted in the last two years - and grazing paddocks. Kids will love the playhouse, flying fox and hide-n-seek forest. School bus pick-up is at the gate and Starlink is already set up for high-speed internet in both the main house and cottage.

Everything’s done! Move in, relax, and soak up the sunshine in your own secluded piece of paradise.
