New homes spring up in Nelson South

Construction is under way on eight new affordable rentals which Nelson Tasman Housing Trust is developing at 163 Kawai St, in Nelson South. The homes, pictured left, are all two-bedroom and four will be wheelchair-accessible. Tenants are expected to move in during late August.

We are starting to take applications for these homes now: they are intended for small households working on modest incomes. The location is close to Nelson Hospital, schools and bus routes. The rent will be 80% of the market rent for similar rentals in the area. Go to our apply for housing page for an application.
