Te Puna Wai is an ornate, historic, 3 storey
Victorian Villa, built in 1857 and sited in a command position in
Nelson's Port Hills. Host Richard Hewetson spent 9 years
performing a sensitive restoration and adding luxurious guest
accommodation (and central heating) to the home.
An eclectic art collection fills the house.
Guest areas include a comfortable lounge, wonderful veranda, outdoor
courtyard & lawned terrace, all of which take advantage of the Te
Puna Wai view.
The unsurpassed view of Haulashore Island, Tasman
Bay & the Tasman & Arthur mountain ranges played a major
contributing factor toward Te Puna Wai being included in the National
Business Review Magazine's inaugural list of the "Top 100 Houses
in New Zealand" - August 2001
