52A Fifeshire Crescent, Stepneyville, Nelson

Fifeshire water-view heaven

Take a front row seat for the twilight yacht racing, as colourful spinnakers fill your view from this coveted position and quality home overlooking harbour and sparkling bay. From deck, dining area or lounge, the Fifeshire Crescent views over the harbour towards the lighthouse and Tasman Bay are captivating.
With four bedrooms (or three plus office) two bathrooms, dining area and lounge, plus deck and private garden, here's what you've been looking for in fine Nelson living. There's the premier address, of course, but even more than that, you are tucked down a private right of way away off the street for wonderful peace and quiet. Open the doors to the deck and listen to the Tui singing in the Pohutakawa trees bordering the garden.
Solidly constructed in the 1960s, the house has been modernized for contemporary comfort with double-glazed timber-framed windows and new designer kitchen and dining. Timber floors, premium wool carpet, high quality window treatments and light fittings by Joug Design distinguish this beautifully presented home. The upstairs bathroom has stunning new tiling and fixtures and there is a second bathroom downstairs.
Families or couples who enjoy having friends to stay will find the house layout appealing - with master bedroom upstairs away from children's or visitors' rooms below. You can all find your own space when you need it.
Cladding is a mix of weatherboard and solid plaster and the roof is Colorsteel. With open plan dining area and kitchen, plus separate lounge, north-facing deck and sheltered west facing patio, there's the space and amenities to entertain friends.
The downstairs opens to covered areas and gardens with a heated outdoor shower. Renovated with double glazing throughout and excellent insulation, this is a warm house. A heatpump heats the living areas. Additionally for mid-winter ambiance a log burner heats the entire upstairs. There are wall panel heaters in each bedroom and underfloor heating in the new upstairs bathroom.
There's large under-house parking for two vehicles plus oodles of storage room for all the family bikes, paddle boards and so on. From the front gate, waterfront cafes are but a stroll away. Only a five minute drive to both the city and the beach.
Viewing is by appointment so contact Liz Woodall for more information or to make a time to view.
