The Arthouse - NZ Architect Award-winning Nelson Waterfront Home

Nestled in the hills facing Nelson s iconic Lighthouse, with a view over Nelson harbour, to the boulder bank and Tasman Bay, this 2018 NZ Architect Award winning home is quiet, relaxed and easy to live in.

The double living area opens on to a large wraparound sunny deck facing the sea, with the windows opening right back to let the tree canopy
come into the space. You will adore the apartment like feel, the eclectic style, and a home that feels warm, welcoming and intimate.

5 minutes walk down the hill for a swim or to the waterfront restaurants, 20 minutes to central city or Tahunanui Beach, the house can accommodate up to five guests and will be ideal for a professional couple, couples or a
family, looking to experience Nelson over the holiday season.

Fantastic House!

We are a family of 5 - 2 adults and 3 kids 14, 9 & 7. The house was incredible. Better than the photos! It was so nice...we didnt actually want to leave and do activities! We just wanted to sit on that balcony and gaze at the view. The house was perfectly set out and very well equipped. Everything that we needed was there. The 14yo had the sofa bed, which he said was very comfortable. The sheets were easy to find. Beach towels were provided. It was a very enjoyable stay and wish we had stayed longer. We will definitely return to this house when we come back to Nelson and recommend it to our friends.

Beautiful home in a great location

We really enjoyed our stay in the lovely Arthouse in Stepneyville. It is very conveniently placed between Nelson and Richmond and close to some lovely restaurants. The view from the deck is wonderful and we enjoyed a number lay afternoon drinks enjoying it. This is a great spot, highly recommend!
