Set within the sheltered folds of Lud Valley, just north of Nelson, this 15.46 hectare property is a rural holding of rare quality – a place where thoughtful land stewardship, natural beauty, and genuine lifestyle capability come together with purpose. More than a lifestyle block, it functions as a small, productive farm, beautifully established and meticulously maintained.

The homestead is strategically positioned within its landscape, a solidly constructed three-bedroom home positioned to take in long views across the paddocks and down the valley. Recently double glazed and well insulated, with a wood burner, HRV/ heat transfer system, the home is warm, dry, and in excellent order.

The current owners have undertaken a thoughtful programme of redecoration and upgrades to the home and its services. Most notably, an extensive garage conversion has created two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and a generous living space – a versatile extension that offers options for extended family, guest accommodation, or future income use.

Across the land, the infrastructure is exceptional. Multiple sheds – including a very large, lockable implement shed near house, operational shearing shed, hay barns, large concrete floor piggery/calf rearing shed, and several storage sheds, provide extensive options for farming, contracting, storage, or future reinvention. Three phase power is connected to key sheds. With 19 paddocks ranging from flat to rolling contour, all waterways fenced, and riparian planting adding character and care, the property is impressively set up. Stock water is supplied from two reliable sources, and the land currently supports approximately 35 cattle, with an impressive production of hay.

The grounds surrounding the home are manicured and sheltered, with established plantings, walking tracks, orchard areas, and the picturesque Lud Stream quietly running through the property. With long sunshine hours, north facing aspect, and a peaceful rural outlook, the setting is both private and deeply inviting – a place for exploring, working the land, or simply enjoying the rhythm of valley living, all within 20 mins from Central Nelson. For families, there is a decile 10 primary school at the end of the road and school bus collections each morning.

Properties of this scale and quality seldom come to market in Nelson and Tasman. With favourable zoning and a substantial landholding, there may be potential for future subdivision, adding long term appeal for discerning buyers.
