168 Atawhai Drive, Atawhai, Nelson, Nelson / Tasman

Perched amongst mature trees with sweeping panoramic views over Tasman Bay and the western ranges, this 1990s home is more than just a property; it's a lifestyle. Elevated, private, and full of character, opportunities like this in Atawhai are rare. Spread across 3 levels, this split-level home is designed to suit families, creatives, and those seeking flexibility. On the first level, 2 bedrooms and a spacious living area and bathroom have previously been used as a successful Airbnb, a ready-made opportunity for extra income or ideal for an extended family. The garage offers more than just parking: a dedicated space for hobbies, creative projects, or a home office, along with a workbench and plenty of storage, a perfect fit for your passions or projects. Upstairs, the heart of the home, comprising the kitchen, dining, and lounge, opens out onto a deck where you can soak in the views of the Tasman Bay and Western Ranges. A skylight above the kitchen fills the space with natural light, highlighting the freshly painted interiors and creating an uplifting, airy atmosphere. The sunny, private courtyard outside the dining and kitchen provides an additional space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or relaxing in peace. This level also features a bathroom, a separate toilet, a bedroom, and a convenient laundry with external access. The master bedroom is tucked away on the top level, offering privacy and a peaceful retreat, with a second bathroom on this level for convenience. Outside, the lifestyle continues. Wander through abundant fruit trees or ascend to the gazebo at the top of the property, a serene retreat for reading, relaxing, or enjoying a drink while taking in the expansive surroundings. Across the road, the tranquil Miyazu Japanese Gardens and Founders Park, with its cafe, provide both beauty and convenience, connecting this elevated oasis with community and leisure. Adding to its efficiency and sustainability, the home is equipped with solar panels, giving tiny power bills or even credit. This is more than a house; it's a home that inspires, entertains, and embraces life at its fullest. With versatile spaces, breathtaking views, and a location that rarely becomes available, 168 Atawhai Drive is a truly exceptional find.
