Description

If you've been on the look for an affordable grazing property or rural holding with real production power, serious infrastructure and massive upside potential, this 167-hectare sheep and beef farm is the rare opportunity you already know doesn't come along often.

Offering a superb mix of lower flats, elevated flat terraces, rolling country and productive hill blocks, this farm delivers the perfect balance of workable contour, reliable grazing, and genuine scale. Excellent access tracks run throughout the property, making day-to-day stock management and running an absolute breeze and opening up multiple areas for further development, subdivision of grazing, or intensified production.

The current farming operation has been run as a dry stock sheep and beef unit, but the versatility here is immense. Recent additions to the landholding open the door to a wide range of future opportunities-whether that's improving pasture, extending subdivision, developing new grazing areas, planting trees for future income, or taking overall production to the next level. The upside is real and ready for the next owner to unlock.

Set privately at the end of a gently winding driveway is the warm and inviting country cottage, sheltered by established trees and gardens. It's the perfect base to enjoy the peace and quiet of true rural living, with the option to be wonderfully self-sufficient. The home offers two generous bedrooms, one bathroom, open-plan kitchen and living warmed by a cosy log burner, and fantastic indoor-outdoor flow onto a covered verandah and sunny deck. Outside, mature gardens, fruit trees, and sweeping farm views remind you daily why country living is hard to beat.

Infrastructure on the farm is substantial. A large shearing shed, covered yards, cattle yards, implement shed, workshop, fert bin and air strip and various other support buildings ensure the farm is fully equipped for efficient stock handling and day-to-day operations. Water is sourced via a reliable well, as well as a natural spring towards the top of the [property that provides an excellent gravity supply to the farm.

Located just outside the rural township of Tapawera, the property connects you to everything a genuine rural community offers-local school, Four Square, pub, rugby grounds-while still being an easy run over the hill to Richmond or through to Nelson for work, supplies or the city fix (though, truth be told, you won't want to leave this farm often).

Scale, production, infrastructure, views, privacy, upside-this 167-hectare holding brings it all together into a rare, tightly held package ready for the next owners to step in and make their mark.
