Experience the serenity of coastal living.
Two fabulous local walks just outside your door.
The Saltwater baths and beach are a mere 5-minute walk and have year-round swimming.
Perhaps a more leisurely approach sampling some of the local eateries and a choice of weekly markets. Mapua Wharf and Nelson are within an easy drive or the Abel Tasman National Park is a short 20-minute drive away with many walks to choose from.
Do you walk or drive?
On this earth to have worked in a number of professions and jobs. Travelled overseas, lived and worked on 3 continents, on the road in a van here in New Zealand searching for this place to call home.
My details will be available in the flat but I'm also available for chats if I'm home.
Cross the road and you’ll be able to enter the estuary walk, a 4km round trip or jump off at one of the many exits and return via the coastal walk.
A beautifully located coffee shop 3 minutes walk.
10 minutes walk along the water to the famous Toad Hall coffeehouse, restaurant and boutique brewery.
Work off the lunch with a swim in the baths just around the corner.
