Locality / Area

Nestled at the gateway to the stunning Marlborough Sounds, Canvastown sits where the Wakamarina River meets the Pelorus River, surrounded by rolling hills, native bush, and rich rural farmland. Steeped in gold rush history, the area still carries a unique sense of heritage and character while offering a peaceful, close-knit rural community today. .
.
The Wakamarina Valley is a true hidden gem—known for its dramatic scenery, crystal-clear river, and endless outdoor lifestyle. From swimming holes and trout fishing to bush walks, mountain biking, hunting and tramping into Mt Richmond Forest Park, this is a location made for nature lovers and those seeking space and freedom. .
.
Despite its tranquil feel, Canvastown is conveniently located just a short drive to Havelock, and within easy reach of Blenheim and Nelson, making it a practical base for work or lifestyle living. There is a primary school at the end of the road and an Area School 10 minutes away with a bus available. .
.
Whether you're after a hobby farm, a retreat-style escape, or a place to raise a family away from the rush, the Wakamarina Valley offers privacy, community spirit, and some of the most beautiful rural landscapes in Marlborough..
