There are many beautiful scenic areas in and around Tasman Bays but this has to be the ultimate location, with its irresistible combination of sea, estuary and mountain views.

It is rare to find such an idyllic area within a short drive of two busy commercial and retail shopping centres.

Situated in one of the loveliest coastal settings in the Bays, this quiet, private 10.7 hectare site combines estuary and beach frontages, with views that can never be built out.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire an exclusive north-facing location, where you can build your own exclusive waterfront retreat - a quiet haven surrounded by well-established trees, with views that stretch forever. Choose the perfect spot to build a substantial home from a range of building sites.

The extraordinary beauty of the area is striking. There is beach access on one side and boat access on the other. Enjoy the sound of waves breaking on the beach and the gentle lap of water in the estuary.

The views are spectacular as they extend across Kina beach, Tasman Bay and d?Urville Island to the long curve of the Richmond ranges and the city, Atawhai and Wakapuaka hills. To the left, the outlook sweeps along the beach to Jacketts Island and Motueka, against a backdrop of the Western ranges, as they extend to Separation Point. On the opposite boundary, glorious views sweep across the Kina estuary.

At night, the lights of Nelson city, Richmond and Motueka illuminate the skyline. It is an ever-changing panorama, which can alter dramatically from a clear blue sky above snow-capped mountains to a breath-taking sunrise above the city hills, or a spectacular Nelson sunset along the Western ranges.

The tidal waters of the estuary attract a variety of sea birds, including many migratory and wading birds, which can be seen as the tides ebbs and flows.
