Some homes just slot into your life. This one lifts it. From the moment you drop onto that window seat in the lounge, you’ll see what I mean. The uninterupted view rolls out over Brightwater’s patchwork of green hills, and suddenly the idea of rushing off somewhere else feels less important. This is a home that slows you down in the best possible way.

Inside, everything has been designed to keep pace with your life. With some nice features, the living and dining zone is open and inviting, warmed by a wood burner (with wetback) for the winter months and cooled by a heat pump on hot Tasman afternoons. The kitchen doesn’t just look fantastic in crisp white, it’s practical too, with a walk-in pantry that means no more juggling bags of groceries or hiding appliances. Entertaining is made easy with a nice flow through to one of the private decks.

The bedrooms are set up to give everyone their own space. Your main suite offers spectacular views and includes a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite - a retreat you’ll be grateful for at any time of the day. The other two doubles are versatile: For kids, guests, or a home office with views you deserve. Add in a full bathroom, a smart laundry and plenty of storage throughout the home to complete this great layout.

Step outside the lounge deck and it’s all easy living. The section has been tastefully landscaped so it won’t eat up your weekends, but still gives you space for pets and kids to play. The deck makes the most of the sun and those long Nelson evenings, while the double internal garage keeps the comings and goings simple.

And here’s the kicker: Brightwater isn’t just a backdrop. It’s a community. You can walk to the village for your morning coffee, bike the Great Taste Trail, or wander the kids to school. Richmond is only minutes away, Nelson a straight run, and your weekends can take you anywhere - rivers, vineyards, beaches, or all three.
