Hill property offers new owners exciting possibilit­ies

- Cameron Scott

This 76.54ha (189.14 acres) farm in the upper Papamoa Hills will provide exciting possibilit­ies for new owners, as it now includes an additional small parcel of land (1.6490 ha) with an extra title.

Te Puke sales consultant­s David and Karen Mclaren point out, having two titles provided opens up many exciting options including a future boundary adjustment and constructi­on of a second major dwelling.

The addition of extra land adds further allure to a beautiful and well maintained property featuring beautiful creeks and rivers, protected by riparian plantings. An abundance of wildlife includes an array of native birds, and wild deer are frequently seen grazing about.

Access to the farmhouse is along a wellformed drive. While at first glance the three-bedroom Keith Hay home may appear unassuming, there is ample room to stamp your own character on it.

The home is well set up for family living, with a farmhouse kitchen featuring a large walk-in pantry. There are two double bedrooms, a single bedroom, laundry and bathroom with separate toilet, and the open plan dining and lounge flow out to a sunny deck. The home is currently rented out for $320.00 a week and the tenants will require the standard 90 days‘ notice to vacate when the sale goes unconditio­nal.

Kaiate Falls Rd borders the spectacula­r upper Papamoa Range with access off Kaiate Falls Rd or Upper Papamoa Hills Rd. The farm is leased until the end of this month to a local farmer and is grazing dry stock and young dairy replacemen­t stock. Sale settlement can take place on April 1, 2024. However, there can be earlier settlement if the buyer accepts that the farm is leased until March 31.

The farm is split into 25 paddocks and offers plenty of opportunit­y for future diversific­ation. It comes with 7ha of large pine trees and 1ha (more or less) of Lusitanica trees – a species of cypress. Infrastruc­ture includes implement sheds, woolshed and barns, while farm chattels included in the sale include giant discs, a grader blade, topdresser and shearing shed equipment. There is easy access around most of the property via a wellmainta­ined track.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, this interestin­g property’s location is perfect. The Summerhill golf course is nearby as are Kaiate Falls, while walking tracks include the Otawa Trig walk. There’s easy access to the beaches, schools and amenities of Mount Maunganui, Tauranga and Welcome Bay.

“The opportunit­ies offered by this attractive farm are many and our vendor is extremely motivated to sell,” says David.
