651 Wakefield-Kohatu Highway, Belgrove, Tasman

Lifestyle with truffles and quality grazing.

Set on approximately 8 hectares (20 acres more or less), this well established lifestyle property offers the perfect mix of lifestyle living, rural productivity, and business potential; all just a short drive from Wakefield.

The renovated 1950s home (126sqm more or less) has been relocated and upgraded with stylish finishes throughout. It features three bedrooms, including a master with ensuite, a shared family bathroom with separate bath and shower, a modern kitchen, separate laundry, and warm, open living areas heated by a wood burner and heat pump. Mature gardens and trees surround the home, creating a peaceful private setting. For remote work or hobbies, two external offices are powered and have internet. There's a double carport, firewood shed, and plenty off street parking.

The standout feature is a 240sqm two storey barn; originally a 1940s hop kiln, now a workshop with three phase power, internal sheep yards, a one stand shearing shed, storage, and a gym/workspace above. The attached kiln has been repurposed into a hobby cidery and brewery space, with water and power.

Outbuildings include stock shelters, garden and tool sheds, and an historic hay barn; once the billiard room of the original homestead. Lord Rutherford even lived on the property as a child!

Water is abundant with two sources: a shared easement offering free domestic and stock water, and a 1,025 cubic metres per week water right from the Wai-iti zone. Water taken under the water right for irrigation purposes is distributed via a fully automated diesel pump system powering K-line irrigation across seven paddocks. The orchard and truffière have their own zoned sprinkler system. In addition, there is a backup domestic/ stock water supply via a 25,000L tank fed by the irrigation system.

The property is fully deer fenced with eight paddocks, cattle and sheep yards, an established orchard (pears, plums, peaches, apples, grapevines), 24 cider apple trees, a walnut tree, and a 330 tree truffiere which last year produced over 10kg of truffles.

A rare opportunity for lifestyle living, small scale farming, or boutique production.
