7957 State Highway 2, Opotiki Surrounds, Opotiki

Wilderness with location and scale

Spanning an impressive 607 hectares (more or less), this property presents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial landholding packed with scale, character, and exceptional recreational appeal. Currently enjoyed by the owners as a recreational property, this unique holding offers enormous potential for buyers seeking space, privacy, and a property unlike the ordinary.

Approximately 150 hectares is in pasture, much of which is deer fenced, although the land has not been actively farmed for over eight years. In that time, nature has well and truly taken over, with wild cattle, deer, and pigs known to roam freely throughout the property, creating an environment perfectly suited for recreation, hunting and outdoor adventure.

Conveniently located along State Highway 2, the property benefits from road access at both ends, offering easy accessibility while still maintaining the sense of seclusion that makes a property of this scale so special. Once operated as a sheep and beef farm, much of the original infrastructure remains, including a two-bedroom cottage ready for restoration, along with a barn, woolshed, and stock yards, all adding to the property's rural character and history.

A network of four-wheel-drive tracks provides access around the grassland areas, making it easy to explore the property. Beyond this, vast areas of mature native bush create endless opportunities for hunting, trekking, and outdoor recreation, with plenty of space to enjoy the rugged beauty of the surrounding landscape.

Adding further appeal, as much as eight kilometers of freshwater streams flow throughout the property, fed by natural springs within the land itself. Waterfalls, native vegetation, and untouched natural surroundings further enhance the property's unique environment and sense of escape.

Situated in the renowned Waioeka Gorge region, well known for its excellent hunting, trout fishing, and outdoor recreational activities, Raysburn Station offers the perfect balance of scale, adventure, and future possibilities.

For buyers looking for a property with space, character, and genuine recreational appeal, opportunities of this size and nature are becoming increasingly hard to find. If you are attending an open day it is recommended you bring a motor bike.
