Rosie Grace Vineyard Homestead

Our house is in sunny Nelson at the top of New Zealand’s South Island and has great views over Tasman Bay. We are located on the edge of the town and back onto countryside, with a track running next to the house that gives immediate access to excellent walking and biking yet it is only 20 minutes’ walk or 5 minutes’ drive into the CBD. It is six years old and is built to high energy efficient standards. We have three double bedrooms upstairs and are happy to negotiate the option of a fourth double bedroom downstairs. The house has wonderful views over Tasman Bay and the surrounding countryside. It is 2 storey and has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a study, a living room and a kitchen/dining/family room. It has plenty of off-street parking and a mature half acre garden. The house uses solar power as well as grid electricity and has rainwater collection. 
Nelson has more sunshine hours than anywhere else in New Zealand and is at the same latitude as Madrid in the northern hemisphere so it is warm and generally only rains in October/November. It is well known for its wines, craft beer, seafood and fruit. It is very much a cafe society and has several high quality restaurants as well as ones serving international food. Nelson is home to a lot of artists and it has a thriving marina.  It is within 90 minutes drive of four national parks and is one of the best mountain bike centres in New Zealand
We have enjoyed home-swapping for several years and have always had very positive feedback. We have also had house-sitters and we know from our own experience how important it is to be able to relax on holiday knowing that everything is being taken care of back home.  We are empty-nesters and retired but we both volunteer and  are both heavily into the Nelson community.  We both enjoy tramping, cycling and sailing as well as spending time reading and going to the cinema, and the theatre. We plan to increase the time we spend travelling in the coming years and to be able to spend quality time in new places so that we can get to know the area and its community.

New energy efficient house overlooking Tasman Bay

We live in a thriving village 20 minutes from Richmond (a dormer town close to Nelson) and Motueka (a country town).    Our house can be described as 'vernacular modern farmhouse'.  It was architecturally designed for us in 2002.  The house has (2 downstairs, one upstairs) three bedrooms all with queensize beds and one other large  tv lounge that also has  a queensize bed.   There are two bathrooms both with showers and one with a bath.   The yard is very private (8000 sq. m.) and we have a fresh water pool (no chemicals), a vege patch, fruit trees and chickens.   If you are interested in swapping we can talk abit more about using the cars, boat , bikes etc.  

Lifestyle section close to sea and mountains

Our home is a sunny, warm and comfortable modern house on 3 levels, has 2 lounges both opening to the garden and patio. Each lounge has 2 sofas and chairs, the kitchen and dining combine. There are 2 bedrooms with double beds and 1 bedroom with a single bed.
The garden is private planted with a variety of trees, ornamental bushes, flower borders, lemons and grapefruit, fernery and succulents.

Sunny Nelson for Beaches, Vineyards, Mountains, National Parks, Arts and Crafts!

Our beachfront property has a gorgeous home full of special character, with easy indoor/outdoor flow onto a huge deck overlooking the bay. We have 10 acres of bush tracks, ponds and pasture right to the sea. We even have our own magical glowworm grotto! This is a truly private retreat where you put your watch and wallet aside and live with nature. With beach access only, you either walk the 400m of stunning, quiet beach, or 4WD down. All part of the adventure! We are in the heart of Golden Bay, surrounded by world-renowned national parks. Golden Bay is a land of artisans, boutique food and beer makers, and craftspeople. It is very easy to spend a few months here without running out of things to see and do.
