Nelson/Golden Bay

Captain's Cottage (also known as Nelson's Colaba Cottage) is a character cottage situated right on the busy and beautiful Nelson waterfront. Built more than a century ago, this wonderful property exudes charm, warmth and comfort in a location that can only be described as incredible! You'll love the outlook - a direct view across the harbour entrance, Haulashore Island, Tasman Bay across to the mountains of the Kahurangi & Abel Tasman National Parks. With some of the regions best eateries, cafe and event venues, Abel Tasman ferry terminal, Tahunanui Beach and the City Centre all within walking distance the property enjoys the seaside ambience of the waterfront and the convenience of this great location. Captain's Cottage offers three bedrooms, two upstairs accessed by nautical style stairway and configured as Queen & Twin single, and one downstairs configured as Queen. The bathroom is well appointed with rich hued timber walls & beautiful new tile & frameless glass enclosure. There are two toilets, one in the bathroom & another in the master bedroom. The living and dining areas are spacious, the kitchen beautiful and fully equipped and a deck encircles the house, providing a lovely place to enjoy the views and sun at the front and a private yard at the rear. There are games, books, magazines, a DVD player and broadband WiFi internet, and even a pod stocked espresso machine! While the old fireplace has made way for the more environmentally and efficient heat pump, a flame-effect electric heater retains some of that original charm. The photos say it well, but Captain's Cottage really is a perfect romantic retreat or family haven for your Nelson experience. Important notes : > Construction - This home neighbours a building site operating between 7am & 4pm from Mon ~ Fri. Construction will cease for the Christmas ~ approx. mid-January 2020. The balance of Summer work will be fit-out & should have limited impact on guests. We have factored this into the booking rates through 2019. > Photographs - This property is currently being refurnished with more changes to come before the coming Summer season. The home will be presented to an equivalent or better standard for all Summer stays. > The waterfront road is busy & all properties within this area are subject to some road & port noise. The property is largely double glazed & noise isn’t a problem for most guests, but we have factored this into the pricing of this great property to ensure great value!
