Historic Bed and Breakfast and Luxury Boutique Hotel near CBD ...

This magnificant property is situated at the foot of the beautiful hills overlooking Nelson City to the Tasman Sea beyond and is often referred to by the locals as "The Castle".

Thirty four individual rooms, including twelve bedrooms, five lounges, eight bathrooms and two extra toilets. The original wing, currently the owners residence, could be developed into four or five additional suites. Resource consent is in place to build a self-contained apartment over the garage, which would be ideal for a manager. Alternatively, a more substantial house could be built on a vacant site on the eastern side of the property, which extends down to Seymour Avenue.

This solidly constructed, 810 square metre building was very strongly built throughout with great beams of kauri and 28 millimetre thick matai floors. All weatherboards, ceilings and most doors are heart kauri. Weatherboards on several sides were covered with a heavy stucco render in the 1950s, which gives it the distinctive castle appearance. The exterior is now painted rich Colonial cream, with burgundy timber joinery and the original 7000 tiled, high pitched Welsh slate roof.

In recognition of the huge amount of restoration work done on Warwick House, the current owners were presented with the 2009 Environmental Award, in the Heritage Site category. Over the past few years, this superb home has hosted many distinguished guests, held many charity fundraisers, hosted tours, high teas and many great musical events.

Exceptional features include the opulent ballroom with a 5.5 metre stud, the four level, 33 metre high octagonal turret, balconies, exterior staircases and ornate kauri fretwork around the large verandah and viewing decks. There are two large oriel windows, five large bay windows and a minstrel gallery, high above the main entrance hall.

Two single garages, an elegant Victorian-style street lamp and a history board flank the substantial, original cast iron gates and posts, which were brought out from England in the 1840s. There is a large sealed parking area, a large carport and a central flagstone Maltese cross.

The original wing is the current owners home which has two spacious living areas, a charming dining / conservatory , kitchen , five bedrooms and two bathrooms.
