Bask in the afternoon sunshine and be transported to a scene evoking Paris. Light filters through glorious stately trees in the public gardens so close you feel you can almost touch them from your veranda.

This luxurious apartment captures a special, cosmopolitan feel unlike any other in Nelson - and represents the very best in high quality inner city living.

Indeed, you can lock, leave and travel without a care from this secure apartment, one of just 17 in the acclaimed Bett Apartments building on the corner of Trafalgar Square and Nile Street.

Two lovely bedrooms, (master with ensuite) enjoying either morning or afternoon light, a second bathroom, bright, stylish kitchen, and separate laundry make the apartment feel larger than its 97sqm floorplan (+28sqm veranda/courtyard).

Unique elements set this apartment apart - the upstairs study space with hillside views through the picture window, for instance, and, off the master suite, an intimate balcony for two with a sliding timber screen.

Bett's is surely Nelson's finest apartment complex; architecturally impressive and built to exacting seismic and acoustic standards (tilt panel concrete and steel) with fitout and finish to match.

Built on “Town Acre 440,” an historic site with origins in the first European settlement of Nelson, this innovative building befits its location. It's a dual winner of New Zealand Commercial Project awards with judges saying, “the project is a standout for Nelson and a model for an alternative project delivery.”

Through a master bedroom window, a venerable heritage rata tree shows off briiliant red seasonal flowers.

Video security for visitor entry, commercial fire system, swipe card entry to the secure underground basement parking and an EV charging point epitomize the contemporary building features.

An inspection will confirm the superb living and location. Contact Julie Ambrose for a viewing.
