Description

Golden Bay has long been recognised as a stronghold in the dairy sector, renowned not only for its productivity but also for its diversity — and this property is no exception. It could continue to be used as a dairy support block or easily be converted into a beef finishing operation. Alternatively, with the cow shed having only been out of use for two seasons, there’s also the option of exploring returning it to a fully operational dairy unit.

The property is divided into approximately 60 paddocks and offers around 85 hectares of prime pasture — predominantly productive river silts with an excellent fertiliser history. An added bonus is the river accretion grazing, further enhancing the block’s versatility. Established native and exotic trees provide excellent stock shelter and create a picturesque farming landscape.

Infrastructure is a real highlight here. The dairy shed is a tidy 20 A/S herringbone, well supported by good access and laneways, along with quality implement shedding and workshops. Accommodation is well catered for with a large five-bedroom family home, complemented by a recently renovated three-bedroom cottage for staff or additional income.

Golden Bay enjoys a mild climate with reliable rainfall, but as water security becomes increasingly important, this property offers a significant advantage with a dependable stock and irrigation supply. A resource consent is in place to irrigate 34 hectares.

Currently part of a larger dairy operation (see link below), the owners are open to selling this block separately
