Hobby Farm

Situated in the peaceful rural community of the Omanawa district you will discover this near perfect hobby farm of 3.7773 flat hectares. \nDrive down the avenue of mature Magnolia, Golden Elms and Flowering Cherry trees to this private lifestyle farmlet.\n\nThe current owners have developed this property from a blank canvas over their 28 years of owning the land and now that the family have all gone it is now on the market for the first time.\nThe home with its three bedrooms, separate lounge, open plan kitchen dining areas while modest in size contains two bathrooms, with the ensuite having a walk in wheel chair friendly access.\n\nClose to the house is the two Ideal buildings of approximately 7.2m x 6.0m, one is the double garage and the other is a comfortable sleep out or games room that contains a toilet also. This is an ideal area for the elderly parents or a younger family to entertain them with a pool table, playing petonque or tennis. \nThe majority of the home is wheel-chair friendly from the inside to the large decking wrapping around the house with ramped access.\n\nThe land is divided into 13 paddocks with 8 and 10 wire fencing currently grazing sheep and cattle and they also harvest some 120 bales of hay per annual. Horses would suit this property as an alternative.\n\nThe large four bay shed of approximately 18m x 7m with one bay lockable is more than sufficient to contain the farm appliances, family boat, horse float or campervan.\n\nModel farmlet, great contour and ready to go. \n\nFew regions in New Zealand or the world for that matter have as much to offer as the Bay of Plenty. From the gentle harbour waters to its surf beaches, its fishing and diving grounds to the scenic bush, the Bay is as much a quiet recreational playground as it is a thriving business and rural community.\n\nKey economic elements for the region include Tourism, Horticulture (predominately Kiwifruit and Avocado production), Viticulture, Pastoral farming, Forestry, Housing and Holiday Makers. The rapid growth in the area provides a vibrant living environment from job opportunities to business prospects with a sustainable future.\n\nTauranga as a city is one of the fastest, if not fastest growing cities in New Zealand. With a mixture of beautiful scenery, great beaches, cafes, restaurants and nightspots it is more than a city it is a lifestyle. The award winning schools also provide a key reason why Tauranga is proving to be such an attractive destination for both ex Kiwi's and migrants as a place to set up their new life in New Zealand.\n\nLocated in the lower Kamias you will find this property an easy 13km up Omanawa Road. The Omanawa district has a very active and strong community. School bus at the gate to the popular Tauriko school and then onto a selection of secondary schools.
