Modern Waterfront Sanctuary

Architect Mies van der Rohe’s “less is more” philosophy is beautifully realised in this exceptional private retreat on the Nelson waterfront overlooking iconic Fifeshire Rock.

Designed for discerning buyers who crave minimalist elegance, harbourside views and fluid indoor–outdoor living, 455a Rocks Road delivers a masterclass in refined coastal architecture—its spaces bathed in the shimmering reflections of Tasman Bay.

Crafted by award-winning eco-builders Hybrid Homes, the ultra-modern residence showcases a sophisticated fusion of cedar, glass and steel. The three-bedroom plus study layout embodies tranquillity and clarity, offering clean, contemporary lines and effortless living. Nestled between Haulashore Island and mature stands of Pohutukawa and Norfolk Pines, it sits quietly within Nelson’s most coveted waterfront enclave.

From your doorstep, a leisurely 10-minute stroll leads to the golden sands of Tahunanui Beach and the vibrant flavours of Nelson’s harbourside dining. Launch a kayak or paddleboard straight from the end of the drive, or simply unwind on your sun-soaked waterfront deck or your private lawn and native garden—hammock gently swaying—as you take in sumptuous views of Nelson’s serene coastal haven.

This home is truly a rare sanctuary where you can slow down, savour the moment, and enjoy more of life’s simple pleasures at your own pace.

Please contact Steve Kelso [hidden information] for your private viewing. Deadline sale date set at 4pm Friday 23 January 2026 (NZT), unless sold prior.
