River, Bush and Pasture - a Private Haven

Located in the sought-after Upper Plain, Wairarapa area, this outstanding 33ha farmlet offers an amazing range of lifestyle benefits. Explore below the escarpment via your choice of two private tracks to the Waingawa River or listen to the birds in beautiful native bush on the upper terrace. The character three-bedroom home is set in established grounds which reveal historic stone fences, mature gardens and a huge range of citrus and other orchard trees. Parts of the home date back to the 1870s, but renovations in 1983, 1993 and 2013 have ensured the home is sound and fit for modern families. The Peter King-designed kitchen is a good example, along with the beautifully appointed bathroom and comfortable decor throughout. Other improvements focus on equestrian activities with 2 stables and a tack room, lunging yard, small paddocks and a cavernous 4 bay shed for farm equipment, shearing and vehicles. There are around 12 paddocks with stock water supplied from a water race and direct from the MDC system. The farm offers multiple uses, especially equestrian with the free draining soils, sheep and cattle finishing or large-scale calf rearing. All of this with the potential to subdivide in future into smaller in-demand lifestyle units. Blocks of this size (33.1903ha or 82 acres) are unique and very hard to find in the Wairarapa. The property offers an exceptional level of privacy and recreational opportunity - think riding, swimming, kayaking, fishing and tramping in the nearby Tararua Ranges.
