44 Van Diemen Street, Nelson South, Nelson, Nelson / Tasman, 7010, New Zealand

44 Van Diemen Street is a beautifully preserved 1920s character home nestled on the city fringe in one of Nelson’s dress circle. A home perfect for families wanting to be close to the colleges. This elevated site is bound by park and reserve on two sides, offering privacy and the assurance that your views will never be built out. Topping it off, you are little more than a 10-minute walk to the church steps.

Catering to busy family life, the home features three generously sized bedrooms and two separate living rooms, easily adaptable to a four-bedroom layout if you desire. The country-style kitchen is the heart of the home, with plenty of space for both dining and family activities. The two bathrooms each come with a bath and separate shower, providing an extra element of indulgence.

Extensive renovations in 2009 mean all the hard work has been done. Updates include double glazing, re-wiring, plumbing, and roofing, wall linings, joinery and efficient heating. A radiator system heats every room, plus a compliant wood burner in the lounge feeds a heat transfer system to ensure uncompromised warmth throughout the winter months. The northern and western sun streams through large picture windows making this a light and airy home.

There are multiple outdoor living spaces perfect for entertaining or family fun – while the oversized and over-engineered garage is the ultimate man cave with space for three vehicles plus a workshop.

Maintaining her original charm and character, while meeting the needs of the modern family – 44 Van Diemen Street is hard to beat.
