New Leaf Development Corp has been designing and building high-quality homes in Nelson for the past 20 years. In designing this project, we envisioned a row of four charming cottages, each with their own front door on the south side, and a patio and small garden on the view side of the building.

The Cottages.

One of four new homes in the innovative new development known as The Cottages, this 600 sq ft, 2-storey townhouse demonstrates that small can be both functional and beautiful.

The main floor is open-plan, complete with sleek contemporary kitchen, a high-quality Jotul freestanding gas fireplace and a glass wall that folds away to extend the living space out onto the patio. Upstairs, there’s a luxurious bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and views of the West Arm, and a stylish bathroom that’s bathed in natural light.

Efficient layout means that rooms are generous in size, with everything from laundry to storage fully integrated into the design. Interior finishes include wood panelling in the stairwell, creative tilework for the kitchen backsplash, and engineered wood flooring. Step 4 energy efficiency translates to a low carbon footprint and low utility bills.

In addition to your private outdoor space, a commonly owned community space spans the length of the building.  In this development, people and nature are prioritized over vehicles, allowing for more greenery and less asphalt.  Access from the street is for pedestrians and bicycles only, while parking for vehicles can be found on both Douglas Road and Union Street.

The property location is excellent for walking or biking to parks, shopping and Nelson’s vibrant Downtown. 

If you think this is a fit for you, we can draw up a pre-sale agreement that will reserve your new home. The first two buyers will benefit from the reduced price of $485,000.  The third and fourth homes will be sold at market price when the building is complete. Construction is expected to take 6 to 8 months.

Note: GST and a comprehensive new home warranty are both included in the purchase price.
