Nestled alongside the picturesque Maitai River in Nelson, New Zealand, this fully restored circa-1956 cottage offers a secluded yet convenient escape and a wonderful base from which to enjoy all our beautiful region has to offer.
Experience modern comfort enriched by the charm and character that can only come from the patina of time - Rustic timber floorboards, mid-century furniture, vintage materials, styling & practicality, rejuvenated & ready to add something unique and special in a World that can sometimes seem a little too 'cookie-cutter'.
The cottage features a newly renovated open-plan kitchen with convenient amenities such as a pull-out pantry, freestanding oven, dishwasher, and fridge with an ice-maker. Stay connected with the office nook equipped for remote work and enjoy complimentary high-speed dedicated WiFi throughout.
Unwind in the living area with views of the deck, garden, and hills beyond, cozy up on Winter nights in front of the wood-burner fire, read a book or stream your favorite movies on the SmartTV. The bedroom, adorned with quality bed linen and electric blankets, overlooks the tranquil garden, while the separate dressing room provides a handy space for changing and storage.
Indulge in a rejuvenating soak in the deep 'soaker' bath, or refresh in the separate shower supplied with continuous-flow gas hot water.
Set back behind the privacy of the river stopbanks, private steps from the property grant direct access to the Maitai River Walk, offering peaceful strolls along the river or a leisurely journey into the city where you'll find great coffee & food, markets, galleries and more.
