1322 South Eyre Road, Swannanoa, Waimakariri

Location and scale

Rarely does a parcel of land of this scale and quality come up for sale in this location. Having been held in the same family since 1928, this farm of 136.7293 hectares is now being offered to the market and presents astute buyers with an opportunity that may not come along again for a very long time.

Currently leased, this property has been farmed with skill and care by the current owners under an arable regime that has incorporated all crop residue back into the soil for 40 of the last 50 years with individual paddock history diligently recorded. With excellent road frontage and subdivision set up for cropping, this is an easy farm to operate. Structural improvements include an older three-stand woolshed, large sheep yards, hayshed and a substantial purpose-built grain storage shed. Stock water from council races, excellent trimmed shelter and soil types that are proven performers under Canterbury conditions.

Being so close to Christchurch city with sealed road access, electricity infrastructure nearby, naturally fertile soils and located on the lifestyle fringe of the progressive Waimakariri district, this property is well placed for the future. Think outside the square and determine your highest and best use for this land whether it be farming systems, larger lifestyle opportunities, land banking or even look beyond the short term to a province with a highly desirable city, international airport and port close by, plus the innovation, agricultural and research capability to make this an exciting and versatile investment.
