After years faithfully developing their vision for this beautiful piece of Wairarapa, our vendors now face the reality of a move south for family. So, here's your opportunity to reap the benefit.
Planned with a conservation lifestyle in mind, this 35 acre unit is an absolute gem! Positioned many metres above Ruamahanga River, the eco-friendly home was designed to take in the views from Rimutaka Hill to Mt Bruce. Seeing is believing!! The 1998 home features a 4 kW solar system to supplement the grid supply, polished concrete floor for passive heating and majority of windows double glazed. Kitchen and family room welcome the morning sun, while the lounge captures the views. A renowned high output Waterford log fire heats the whole house in winter, plus hot water. Master bedroom offers ensuite bathroom and direct access to the deck. There's a 2nd double bedroom and a single or office, plus a double sleep -out behind the garage for family and friends.
Originally set up as a deer farm, the purpose-built deer shed has been used as a calf rearing unit for up to 30 calves and a welfare centre for lambing ewes. The five-bay shed is an impressive complex offering high stud storage for a horse truck, caravan or motor home, 3 lock-up bays for a workshop, and an open bay for hay.
For self-sufficiency, enjoy the bird-proof vege garden and a range of orchard fruit trees. Run now as a sheep breeding and cattle finishing unit, high performance is achieved due to strongly fertile soils, great infrastructure and good management.
A reliable conserved water system utilises two dams and 3 x 5000 gallon concrete tanks collecting from roofs - ample for all seasons.
Years of visionary planting have made this rural block a joy to explore. In 2016, the vendors won the Wellington Ballance Farm Environmental Lifestyle Award - a well-deserved accolade.
Only 11km to Masterton for great schooling and an easy commute to Wellington - under 1.5 hrs drive or take the train.
