Nelson, Nelson Neuseeland

Exclusive Luxury Estate

Nestled in a private, tranquil setting with breathtaking 360° rural and water views, this north-facing estate offers the perfect balance of luxury, privacy, and sophisticated design. Located just a short drive from Motueka, Nelson, and Mapua, it combines the serenity of rural living with the convenience of urban access — a rare gem in one of New Zealand’s most desirable regions.

At its heart stands the main residence, a stunning two-storey home meticulously designed with five double bedrooms, each offering beautiful outlooks. One room currently serves as a study, ideal for those working from home. The master suite features three built-in wardrobes, an ensuite, and spectacular vistas, while a private sauna adds a touch of resort-style indulgence.

Bright and airy throughout, the home features a sunroom/gym with an adjoining balcony — a perfect retreat to unwind. A formal dining room flows seamlessly to the open-plan kitchen, complete with island bench, and the family lounge, which includes a home theatre for an exceptional entertainment experience. Four heat pumps, two wood burners, and solar-assisted hot water cylinders ensure year-round comfort and energy efficiency.

Downstairs, a sixth double bedroom with two wardrobes opens to a beautifully finished bathroom. The dramatic atrium floods the interior with natural light, enhancing the sense of space and connection to the outdoors.

Outside, the landscaped grounds span just over one hectare of flat to gently sloping land. The solar-heated inground saltwater pool forms the centrepiece for relaxation and entertaining. Mature trees, bluebell plantings, and a charming rose garden create a serene, park-like setting, while a decorative pond adds to the tranquillity. Multiple sheds provide practical storage for garden tools and equipment.

Sustainability features include three large water tanks and a modern septic system. A three-car garage with an adjoining self-contained bedsit (or gym) offers flexible use — perfect for guests, staff, or a home office — complete with ensuite, heat pump, and gas hot water. A two-car carport provides additional parking.

Complementing the main residence is Skylark Cottage, a delightful two-bedroom home with strong Airbnb potential or suitability as staff accommodation. The cottage offers an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, a modern bathroom, heat pump, and electric hot water. Built to the same high standard as the main house, it provides comfort and versatility for guests or short-term rentals.

Altogether, the main home, cottage, and triple garage total approximately 545 sqm of floor area, showcasing premium craftsmanship and functionality throughout.

The estate’s private setting, exceptional amenities, and income potential make it ideal for those seeking to live in harmony with nature without compromising on luxury. Its proximity to Motueka, Nelson, and Mapua means world-class beaches, boutique shopping, and outdoor adventures are only minutes away. The Tasman region boasts the highest sunshine hours in New Zealand, stunning national parks, and direct daily flights to Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch.

This property represents a unique opportunity to secure a lifestyle of elegance, sustainability, and versatility. Whether as a private sanctuary or an income-generating investment, this exquisite estate offers a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a premier property in one of New Zealand’s most sought-after regions.
