Opportunities like this are incredibly rare. Set in one of Nelson’s most sought-after pockets, 19 Van Diemen Street offers a generous parcel of land in a location that has long been recognised for its enduring appeal.

This is a position people wait for. Just a one-minute walk to Hampden Street School, one of Nelson’s most popular and highly regarded primary schools, and perfectly placed between Nelson Boys College and Nelson Girls College, the education zoning here alone speaks volumes. Add to that an easy walk to Nelson Hospital and the CBD, and you have a setting that delivers both lifestyle and long-term appeal.

Sections in this area are seldom available, and when they are, they attract strong attention from those who understand the value of securing land in a proven location. This is not just about building a home, it is about positioning yourself in a part of Nelson that remains tightly held and highly regarded.

The site provides flexibility. Design and build your dream home to suit the setting, explore potential options for further development including subdivision (subject to council approval), or secure it now and hold for the future. Land in locations like this has a track record of rewarding those who recognise it early.

To make things even more compelling, architecturally designed plans are already in place, fully approved by council and ready to go. The plans have been designed by Irving Smith Architects, led by Andrew Irving, and encompass a substantial 320+m2 home, thoughtfully created to maximise the site and reflect the calibre of the location. The vendor is happy to share these, giving you the ability to move forward with confidence or use them as inspiration to create something uniquely your own.

Premium location, rare availability, and undeniable future appeal. This is a standout opportunity to secure a piece of Nelson that not many get the chance to own.
