It's time for a change. After proudly farming this 92 hectare (more or less) property for the last 20 years, its time to move to town and new adventures for these vendors, opening the ‘opportunity door' for new owners to enjoy this great piece of Okoroire land.

Milking 200 mostly Friesian cows through a 20 aside herringbone shed and producing a three-year average of 99,600kg milk solids. In-shed meal feeders for the approximately 120 tonne of feed brought in, while 7 hectares of maize and 7 hectares of chicory is grown annually. Effluent is to two clay lined ponds which have been drop tested and are presently compliant.

A convenient mix of contours (approx 70% flat and 25% rolling) aids farm grazing management through the seasons with stock grazing the easy elevated land during wet spells and the lower paddocks produce well through the dryer months. Plenty of shedding with a 5-bay half round implement shed and two hay barns.

The spacious three-bedroom main home enjoys views out over most of the farm and beyond to the Kaimai Ranges. Two living areas with a log burner, heat pump and a recently added new kitchen with stone benchtops add nice appeal to this comfortable tidy home. The basement double garage with internal access makes bringing in the weekly shop easy and the school bus stops at the gate for the children. The three-bedroom second dwelling is in tidy condition with a wood burner for heating and a sleepout for further accommodation.

Located only 15 minutes from Matamata and just down the road from the classic Okoroire pub for a Friday night dinner or a hit out at the nine-hole golf course. This is a desirable sought after location which you will be happy to call home on a farm with a reliable history and a constant producer, come along for a look!
