308 Gartartan Road, Ashburton, Ashburton

Irrigated 8.09ha small farm opportunity

Deadline Sale (unless sold prior) 4pm, Thur 16 May 2019

Featuring a modern permanent material, three bedroom home positioned in an established garden setting, this larger lifestyle property will attract the attention of all prospective purchasers in the market for a lifestyle property with the soils, irrigation and scale which could support a range of land use options.

Set back from Gartartan Road, the home and yard area is private and secure and is accessed along a tree-lined driveway which is a feature of the property. Designed for relatively easy care, the garden has an array of established trees and shrubs providing shelter for lawns and more formal gardens adjacent to the house. Trimmed buxus hedging has been effectively used as the border around specialist gardens and especially vegetable growing plots.

The home is exceptionally well maintained and provides a very warm and comfortable rural living environment, with views across the garden and the surrounding countryside to the foothills. The large, fully enclosed, high stud farm shed is located adjacent to the garden area and provides an excellent workshop and storage facility for farm and garden plant and equipment.

Predominantly farmed as a sheep grazing operation, fencing on the property is of a very high standard and the subdivision lay-out provides for a range of grazing options. Fertile, silty loam type soils and the capacity to irrigate the property from its own bore combine to support strong pasture production across the whole property.

In all respects, this is an appealing property in a favoured location, and offers a range of sought after features and possible further opportunity for those looking in the rural or lifestyle markets.
