Grazing/bush land which morphs into Manuka and native 178.9722ha bush boundaries and into extensive forest providing the perfect habitat for fallow deer. These semi-frequent visitors add to the farm's appeal and would make for a tantalising grazing/hunting property or farm-stay. The farm upon entry has an immediate and profound impression of private tranquility. Once on this grazing property that has some strong horticultural possibilities, a family tradition of no-nonsense farmers who believed in good natural grass pasture techniques can be seen - the mantra being animal health comes first. The excellent pasture cover has resulted from conservative stocking numbers, weed control, and traditional rotation management. The locality boasts good free-draining soils and regular seasonal rainfall. The standard of fencing is adequate for large Angus cattle and any future development would be easily affected from a central race system. The range of buildings includes two dwellings. One is several years old, fully functional but has never been lived in. This would make a good manager's home. The original homestead would make an ideal farm-stay/hunting lodge and is supported with a three-bay detached garage. Other buildings include haybarn, woolshed and dairy shed. The farm is reasonably well-tracked and has the bonus of a Kaituna River boundary where rainbow trout have often supplied the smoker. Wild pigs have also been known to make an appearance but as stated the mobs of wild fallow deer are a graceful sight on a property which was once selected as an international movie setting, such is its very special appeal.
