Description

D’Urville Island is certainly one of New Zealand’s special spots that has the hearts of so many Kiwis for a number of reasons - it is a highly sought after and iconic location that makes, for many, their ‘happy place’ to be as they escape the world.

What better place to look at purchasing a fantastic bach & piece of land, and cement lasting priceless memories for you and your family. The bach itself is well appointed and enjoys all the comforts of home without losing its feel of being a Kiwi Bach. A place where Facebook is swapped out for a real books, and evening TV becomes family games in front of the fire, and dinner is a BBQ on the deck overlooking the stunning beach and pictures Tasman Bay.

Greville Harbour is one of the most desired locations on the island, with its great nor West facing beach, attractive and well-protected anchorage, stunning lake to the rear that has been recently planted in natives and is now a haven for wildlife, and the retired farmland that is now Department of Conservation land and a ‘playground’ enjoyed by hunters, trampers and mountain bikers alike.

What ever your hobby or day at the island brings you, at the end of the day being back in your own space and enjoying a warm shower and all the luxuries of home will make this a spot you will never want to leave.

When you think D’Urville Island and look at the remoteness of this property, you may start to think about access and how hard is it going to be? Well drive, boat or fly…… driving and using the barge crossing, and the roading network through the island itself is an option, or if you want to use the boat this is another great option and the property comes complete with 2 moorings, and even air with the newly upgraded airstrip ready for action, so whether its’ flying yourself in or using a small charter, the owners tell me that flying in on a Friday after work is just magic, and after a short flight, when the plane takes off you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere and have escaped reality… .

Close enough to be a regular weekend escape, being just 40 minutes flying time from Wellington and Palmerston North, and 25 minutes from Nelson, the bach is located just 500 metres from the 800-metre airstrip – a quick trip, giving you more leisure time for that weekend getaway.

After 23 years in the same family, the decision has been made it is time to move on, and now this once in a lifetime opportunity is knocking on your doorstep.

So what do you say….?
