A benchmark of productive farming
Exceptional performance, established infrastructure and natural advantages
There are farms that stand apart for their natural attributes, and others that distinguish themselves through the quality of their development and management. This exceptional Gisborne property brings both together, presenting a highly productive farming operation underpinned by outstanding fertility, quality farm infrastructure and a proven commitment to performance.
Years of extensive, quality fertiliser investment have established excellent soil fertility, with high Olsen P levels supporting strong pasture production, premium stock performance and a highly productive, strong-returning operation. Currently carrying circa 5,500-6,000 stock units as part of a wider farming enterprise, the property reflects a sustained focus on efficient grazing management and the fundamentals that drive long-term farming success.
That commitment to performance is recognised beyond the farm gate, with recent accolades including the Eastern North Island Silver Fern Farms Plate to Pasture Award — a testament to the quality of its grazing management, stock performance and overall farming practices.
Natural advantages further enhance the property's productive capability. River boundaries, strong springs and well-established dams provide an abundance of natural water, while a favourable farming climate and well-distributed annual rainfall support reliable pasture growth and stock performance throughout the seasons.
The infrastructure is equally impressive. Extensive new fencing is complemented by a strong network of existing, high-quality fences, enabling efficient stock control and movement across the farm. A network of well-developed tracks and central laneways connect seamlessly to the main farming hub, incorporating quality cattle yards, a woolshed and substantial covered yards with capacity to night-pen approximately 1,500 stock units. Excellent satellite yards throughout the property provide further flexibility and efficiency, supporting a well-organised and highly functional farming system.
Contour and aspect are additional strengths, with easy to medium-contoured country that has been progressively disced and re-grassed to establish quality pasture covers. A favourable mix of aspects provides both shelter and well-suited breeding country, contributing to the property's overall versatility and performance.
Beyond its productive credentials, pockets of native bush, together with rivers and streams, introduce a welcome recreational dimension and a strong connection to the natural landscape. These features create opportunities to enjoy the outdoors while complementing the property's broader farming appeal.
Set within an established and supportive rural community, the property also benefits from the practical advantages of country living, with a well-regarded rural primary school nearby, a community hall and school bus access to the gate.
A compelling opportunity to secure a proven, high-performing East Coast farming operation, where exceptional fertility, strong stock performance, first-class infrastructure and natural advantages combine to deliver a quality rural investment with enduring appeal.
