General overview
Modern, peaceful home surrounded by forest, 5 minute drive to Nelson city centre. Our house is at the end of an easy access private drive in small residential area.
Our home is a passive solar design home with a concrete slab floor, which means it is nice and cool in summer and extra warm in winter. We also have 2 heat pumps and a log burner for cosy winter nights.
The space
Our home has 4 bedrooms / 2 bathrooms:
- One superking
- One queen
- One double/office
- One child’s room with cot bed.
Master bedroom has an en suite with walk in shower. Main family bathroom has a stand alone shower and bath tub. There is also a separate toilet.
Our home is bright and airy with lots of windows and natural light with forest views from almost every room. We have AC/ heat pump (x 2), wood burner, Apple TV, Netflix and fast fibre wifi.
We have a 3 year old and a baby, so our home is child friendly and set up with everything you would need for kids. We have hiking and biking tracks from the doorstep, one of Nelson’s best playgrounds 2 minute walk away and we are surrounded by nature and birds.
Guest access
The house is all on one level and has 4 doors to the outside. The master bedroom and one of the guestrooms have private entrances.

Neighbourhood
The nearest beach is a 10 minute drive away, with lots more to chose from if you want to drive a little further. Nelson is a lovely little seaside town with all amenities including restaurants, cafes, gardens, galleries, supermarkets, airport and everything else you would need.
Nelson is the “sunniest place in NZ” with so many beautiful places to visit close by, including 3 national parks, Abel Tasman great walk, the Great Taste Cycle Trail and lots of vineyards within an hours drive.
Nelson is a popular hotspot for tourism and people from all over the world love our region! The area is best visited if you have a car, but we do have a local bus that leaves from the end of our drive to Nelson city centre if needed. Nelson airport is 10 minute drive away and there is a bus to the airport from the end of our driveway too.

Liz
Kiwi/British/Canadian family currently living in Nelson, New Zealand. Love the outdoors and being in nature. Liz (English) is an Environmental Consultant and Matt (Canadian) works in Health & Safety management. We have 2 boys Max (3 yrs) and Oscar (5 months) who are lucky to have British, Canadian and New Zealand citizenship!
We have lived internationally in various places for many years but New Zealand is now our home. We plan to spend June-August 2024 in Canada. Our home in Nelson, New Zealand will be available during that time for non-sim/globe exchanges.
We are also open to exchanges within NZ over the NZ summer period (Dec-April), during Christmas holidays, long weekends, Easter and May 2024.
