Ora Station and Glenora Hunting Adventures

For the first time in more than 100 years, the multi income generating Ora Station is listed for sale.
Located near Akitio beach, 67 kilometres south-east of Dannevirke, this 2,491 hectare property offers a fantastic balance of easy to medium breeding hill country, and boasts 395 hectares of flat and easy finishing country which is Class 3 land.
This diverse and extensive station also includes 330 hectares of ring deer fenced bush which forms the home for Glenora Hunting Adventures. The hunting operation includes a main lodge with kitchen and overlooks the large manmade lake which provides an amazing setting. There are three separate self contained cabins which provide cosy accommodation, plus an eight bunk room, and also a skinning room which completes the hunting base.
The accommodation on the farm also provides opportunity for glamping or walking groups with Akitio Beach approximately 14 kilometres from the property.
Come duck shooting time, the large dams on the property are well set up with mai mai's which provide lots of fun for all involved.
Other sources of income include 114 hectares of Manuka for honey and carbon, 30 hectares of mature Pinus radiata woodlots, and a 300 hectare carbon lease.
A large spring fed dam provides the water source for an extensive reticulated water supply which has further scope to extend.
Improvements include the 1977 architecturally designed and built five bedroom homestead, a manager's four bedroom Lockwood, a second four bedroom Lockwood, a cookhouse, and a shepherds Lockwood.
Farm improvements include an eight stand woolshed, large central cattle yards, and a 570 metre all weather on farm airstrip with 200 tonne fertiliser bin. The airstrip is perfect for the incoming hunters.
This is a fully diversified proposition providing a great opportunity for either New Zealanders, or an overseas investor wanting a multi income generating business, with a playground all in one package.
