5497 Croisilles-French Pass Road, French Pass, Marlborough, Marlborough

A special opportunity to purchase that unique family retreat or your permanent new home in the Marlborough Sounds.

Located near the sparkling waters of Waikawa Bay, French Pass, the drive-to-the-door colonial homestead has direct access to a secluded sandy beach where boats can be launched in full view of Durville Island.

With sea views, the grand colonial villa is surrounded by attractive gardens with well-kept lawns and is sheltered by a stand of mature trees. The beautiful 5 bedroom homestead is the convergence of historic character and modern day amenities. There's a formal dining room, an elegant living room, a high stud, wide verandahs, a Stanley cooker with central heating and security and fire sprinkler systems. The exquisite dwelling is complimented by garages, a 3 bay farm shed with power, 2 registered moorings and there's just enough land to run some animals for fun.

You can experience Marlborough Sounds fishing at its best. Imagine sitting on the veranda enjoying fillets of fresh blue cod caught just off the beach, while listening to the waves caress the shore. Native birds sing in the trees and a tranquil stream gurgles down the gully near the boundary. Two picnic spots overlooking the Bay are easily accessed beyond the 1.5 acre freehold title.

Road access from Nelson is just over 2 hours via the Croisilles-French Pass Road which includes breath-taking elevated views of the Marlborough Sounds. Wifi access is also available so you can stay in touch.

Sold with furniture and fittings excluding some personal items.
