Sun Peaks Station: a well-balanced 737 hectares
Set in an appealing farming climate with an average annual rainfall of 1,231mm, Sun Peaks enjoys a temperate climate, with relatively mild winters and largely good growing conditions throughout the summer, all while being 46km inland from Gisborne City, in the thriving Pehiri community.
Farm investment in recent years has been a focus and is emphasised by fertiliser application records, new fencing, and the addition of an extensive stock water reticulation system, which is complemented by excellent natural water across the farm.
Sun Peaks' stock carrying over the last two years, has been calculated conservatively at an average of 8.5 stock units to the effective hectare (690 effective hectares). At these levels stock performance has been thriving, with docking results consistently over 150%, and calving averages circa 88%.
Balanced contour across the farm provides for excellent sheltered breeding conditions, with areas of easy to flat contour at the front of the farm, utilised for summer crops and high-performance pastures, and easy country at the rear, running the circa 100-hectare bull unit.
Extensive farm infrastructure includes multiple sets of satellite yards, good fencing (providing 55 main paddocks across the farm), a water reticulation system, and the central hub of main stock handling facilities being the woolshed and covered yards and cattle yards with load-outs well located off Veitch Road.
A four-bedroom home is elevated off the road within established grounds, with excellent supporting sheds.
Sun Peaks is an opportunity to acquire appealing scale, balanced contour, in a well-regarded location with excellent proximity to Gisborne City.
