Support Farm, Locality and Scope

A 65 hectare (more or less) block that is currently used to support a larger dairy farm located in Otamarakau Valley. Situated in an elevated and picturesque setting and centrally positioned between Whakatane and Tauranga, the scope here to diversify make this a great option for the savvy investor.

Currently used to support the neighbouring dairy farm (also for sale), the contour here is a mix of flats to rolling with some areas of medium sidlings. There are good pasture swards clean of weeds complimented by an annual re-grassing programme. It has a simple race system feeding into well fenced paddocks, which can be easily maintained from the two on-site pumice quarries. Well maintained with a good fertiliser history - stock water being provided by a well bore to all troughs.

The 16 ASHB cowshed positioned at the front of the farm could easily be used again for milking cows, either before they return to your home farm or for collection of calf milk. Also, there are additional out-buildings including calf sheds and a round hay barn providing you with plenty of space for storage and stock handling. The options here could include to continue as a support block for your existing operations, return the land to its previous use as a small-scale dairy farm and/or convert suitable land into horticulture - both avocado and kiwifruit development are possibilities.

In addition, a beautifully positioned three bedroom home with garage and a single sleep-out that takes in spectacular rural and sea views from the expansive deck area. With plenty of shedding at home there is again space for storage and toys. Only 4km from the local sought after Otamarakau School and the excellent community in this area, this property offers lifestyle and diversity.

Conveniently located to Te Puke for Intermediate and College choices - a school bus runs from close to the property. Situated less than 6km to the Otamarakau Beach Access, for surf-casting, swimming and water fun. Properties in this area are seldom available..
