Established family farming operation consisting of 249.7989 ha (617 acres) in four titles. An easy contoured mainly north facing property where all the hard work has been done. The milking platform has seen significant upgrading with races extended and old races upgraded, virtually all re-fenced, a completely new water system in place, and significant improvement to pastures. All set up now for the new owner.

Currently operating as a dairy unit milking around 300 cows with production to 84,000kgMS (with the use of adjoining lease land) plus dairy support and grazing/finishing beef.

Improvements include a modern 30 ASHB shed and calf rearing complex - as good as it gets, 162 bale wintering barn now used only for storage (non-compliant), a maize silage bin and a PKE bunker. The beef property has cattle yards on concrete, a large barn with access to the adjoining yards (has former stud stock selling rostrum still in place) a 3-stand woolshed with covered yards and a small hay barn. Property also has its own limestone quarry with all-weather access.

The property is complemented by two good family homes. On the dairy unit the modernised home is elevated with views over the farm and harbour, comprises three bedrooms with basement that includes a bathroom with toilet and shower plus a family room or fourth bedroom. A classic mid-century bungalow built to take advantage of the sun and views is located on the beef farm and is set in mature grounds with a wide variety of fruit trees.

Situated some 12km west of Maungaturoto township providing schooling and rural services, and an easy commute to Auckland City, the property adjoins the popular Kaipara Harbour.
