Prime dairy opportunity in Galatea on three titles
Positioned within the renowned Galatea farming district, 60 Whirinaki Road presents a substantial and well-developed dairy farming opportunity comprising 105.1550 hectares (more or less) across three freehold titles.
The farm offers a highly fertile, predominantly flat contour over two levels, supported by a well-developed farm management programme and reliable water resources. Bore water is reticulated to all paddocks via a loop-line system, complemented by 28 hectares of irrigation from river water which runs along the property boundary extending to the center of the farm. Established lucerne paddocks, regular undersowing and strong pasture development further support the farm's productive capability.
Currently milking 268 cows, the operation is supported by a modern and well-kept 24-aside cowshed and KlipTank effluent system, providing a practical and established platform for efficient dairy operations.
Accommodation is provided by two dwellings, including a modern brick main residence offering four comfortable bedrooms, two living areas and two bathrooms. A separate three-bedroom weatherboard home provides for staff accommodation.
Approximately 3.5 hectares of eight-year-old pruned pine trees add diversity to the property, while a further area is currently being regenerated with approximately 3,000 native plants.
The three freehold titles provide flexibility, while the combination of productive soils, established infrastructure and reliable water creates a strong farming platform. Located in the proven Galatea dairying district, the property also offers an enviable rural lifestyle, with convenient access to Whakatāne and Rotorua, alongside outstanding fishing, hunting, tramping and recreational opportunities.
