Corru Gate is stylish and different. City chic meets country style in this architecturally designed,3 bedroomed contemporary lifestyle cottage. Set in 7 acres of paradise at Nelson's art, beach, wine, and outdoors hub on the Ruby Coast, Corru Gate embodies a distinctively creative Kiwi flavour - iconic corrugated iron, internal use of railway sleepers, and sunny colours. Children are welcome here - there is a great playground and treehut plus farm animals. We value our natural environment - wetlands, birdlife and native trees. We have a spray-free hobby orchard - grab a lemon for your G&T on the deck before dinner.
Welcoming and comfortable, the cottage has a zany kitchen, and a classy bathroom. The open plan lounge has French doors opening onto a sun-drenched deck and private designer garden. Fully equipped with modern conveniences, Corru Gate features quality furniture, and local and NZ art.
Wander our gently sloping paddocks, appreciating the wonderful view of Tasman Bay - the sheep and chickens will probably tag along. Corru Gate is perfectly positioned at the art, vineyard and cafe hub of Nelson. The wharf restaurants and beaches are 4 minutes away in the seaside village of Mapua. Galleries, sea-kayaking, Touch the Sea, horse riding,golf, World of Wearable Art and Nelson potteries and vineyards are all right here. Rabbit Island beach and safe rivers for swimming are 10 minutes away. Corru Gate is central for exploration and adventure. Three national parks are within an hour for climbing, tramping, skiing rafting and kayaking.
Space, birdsong, stillness, starry skies. Corru Gate - your gateway to a great local lifestyle.
