Description

With a strong milk price forecasted and interest rates and other key costs on the decline, now is the perfect time to take the leap. Whether you're looking to start up, continue milking as your own boss, or make a change, the signals are clear-this is your opportunity.

This highly productive dairy farm spans 91 Ha approx. of milking platform, consistently delivering impressive results with an average annual production of 88,000 (3 year average) and on track to do 100,000 L. The option also exists to purchase an additional freehold 35 Ha (approx.) run-off block just down the road. This block features basic farm improvements and a dwelling that could do with a little TLC.

Back on the dairy farm and the 20-a-side herringbone dairy shed is well-equipped with in-shed feeding, while wide, cleverly constructed laneways connect the shed to well-subdivided paddocks. Approximately 24 Ha effective including a small amount of river acreation land lies across the highway marked by an NZTA road sign at the crossing.

Other farm infrastructure includes a recently added large Tasman Effluent tank and associated equipment, three large hay/implement sheds set within a spacious yard. For those who enjoy a morning coffee or post-milking breakfast, there's a delightful deck overlooking the farm, providing a peaceful retreat. On colder days, retreat inside the cosy, partly renovated three-bedroom home and warm up by the log burner, which adds a real sense of comfort.

A recent addition to the property is a cell phone tower, offering not only excellent coverage but also a potential source of passive income. Stunning mature trees are scattered throughout the farm, fenced off wetlands and beautiful established bush offering bird song and recreation. You won't be disappointed with the property bordering both the Maruia and the Buller Rivers.

This is a property that offers both productivity and lifestyle, with plenty of room for growth. Don't miss out-contact me today to arrange a viewing!
