Premium volcanic land, endless potential
If you're looking for premium Maungatapere growing land with genuine options for the future, 196 Whatitiri Road deserves a closer look.
Set across 4.2950 hectares (more or less) of highly regarded volcanic soil, the property is currently established in avocados, but the real opportunity here is the flexibility of the land.
You could continue with the existing orchard, convert the property back to quality grazing, or look at establishing kiwifruit or another high-value crop. With fertile volcanic soils and a strong horticultural history in the wider Maungatapere area, this is land that gives the next owner plenty of choice.
Water security is another major advantage. The property has two shares in the Maungatapere Water Scheme, providing an annual allocation of 750,000 litres, giving buyers confidence whether the future use is horticulture, grazing or simply maintaining a productive lifestyle property.
The home itself offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with a comfortable layout and a great rural setting. There is also a three-bay shed, along with two generous portacoms and a deck area, providing plenty of extra flexibility. They could work well for storage, a site office, hobby space, or perhaps give the next owner some ideas around creating guest or Airbnb-style accommodation, subject to the usual approvals.
Location is another big strength. You're only around five minutes from Maungatapere Village, where you've got the Office Cafe and G.A.S. for other everyday conveniences, while Whangarei is only around 20 minutes away so you can enjoy the privacy and productivity of a genuine rural holding without feeling isolated from town.
For farmers looking to downsize, horticultural buyers wanting quality growing land, or lifestyle purchasers who simply want a property with more options than most, 196 Whatitiri Road offers a really compelling mix of home, land, water and future potential.
