Description

If you’re on the search for something special and quite unique; if you’re looking for exceptional value for your money; plenty of income streams; off grid and truly self-sustainable lifestyle and getting back to the land and the important things in life….. you have just found it!

Situated on two titles being 55.99Ha and 30.94 Ha, this property truly has so much to offer. Starting out on the land you have an 8.4 Ha block that has recently been entered into the ETS for carbon credits so start earning passive income immediately, with another 13 Ha of Pinus Radiata and a stand of natives also currently going through registration into the scheme. The balance of the land is made up of around 40 Ha approx. grazing, which comprises of some flat very productive grazing to some steeper grazing that could be either improved, or maybe also planted and registered for more passive income. The balance of the land is in native with some spectacular wetland for the conservationist within….. Out on the land you will be at one with nature with incredible bird life and wild game roaming through the native bush and forestry.

The home itself is striking to say the least with its stunning design and boasting cedar cladding and South Island schist features, and covered veranda. The alpine lodge style home blends in well with its environment. Inside you will see the continued use of natural fibres and warm timbers throughout. In the spacious open plan country kitchen, you will find all the bells and whistles you would expect from a home of this calibre including the cosy log fire cooking stove. From here is the dining options which include indoor or outdoor choices, flowing out to the covered veranda and BBQ deck complete with in built pizza oven, plenty of room for the BBQ and outdoor furniture, and finished off by the woodfired hot tub! Then through to the generous lounge with inbuilt log burner and views that will make the TV redundant. The home is warm and inviting being all doubled glazed and well insulated, with two spacious bedrooms in the main house with options for more rooms if required, but if it’s for family or guests - worry not, as the current owners have built a fantastic cottage that they first moved into when building, so options also exist for renting or Air B&B.

Both the main home and cottage are well set up off the grid on modern solar power systems, and utilise gas, and wetbacks for sustainable living, but when you really talk about sustainable living, growing your own meat on the land as well as all your fruit and veg has to be the ultimate.

If this incredible property has your attention, don’t let it slip through your fingers and get in touch now to find out more.
