For those who've dreamed of an affordable entry to one of Nelson's prime waterfront streets, this is it!

The neat and tidy house on the hill is homely, but it's the views that will leave you awe struck from this elevated property across the road from the harbour front.

Victoria Rd is a wonderful, intimate neighbourhood, and this is a rarity not to be missed.

The home is an original from the late 60s and while update projects are obvious, this is a comfortable home you can move in to and happily enjoy while you make your plans.

The Cut, the iconic entrance to Nelson harbour, is directly before you, so near you can see the crew on arriving and departing ships. And there's the panorama of Tasman Bay, the western mountains and, in summer, the Wednesday twilight yacht fleet.

Here's a home you can live in from day one while planning updates. Or you could decide to get stuck into a full renovation. Either way, the views won't go away - and there's the proximity to the waterfront for a dip, or a stroll down for coffee at the Boatshed.

The house is one of a few on an access way off the street, with No 24 high enough to give that stunning lookout.

There's a double basement garage and workshop area below and plenty of storage.

The living is all on one level above, with three bedrooms, and spacious open plan living opening to the decks. The house has separate laundry and toilet as well as the family bathroom.

It's all part of the originality of this home, which gives a sound palette to work with. There's insulation in walls and ceiling and heating is provided by two wall heaters.

The house is on a sloping 663sqm section, with lots of established trees and shrubs and garden space for veges and easy to maintain - and landscaping opportunities abound.

This is a blissful location, undoubtedly one of Nelson's finest and a house brimming with opportunities.
