A Fruitful Affair - Blossoming Now!

Well-renowned Tram Road Fruit Farm is reluctantly available due to retiring vendors who offer their property for genuine sale. Reap the rewards of years of hard work that our vendors have spent creating this work from home lifestyle with further room to expand. Immaculately presented producing mixed fruit orchard located in Swannanoa which is 30km from the centre of Christchurch.

The Tram Road Fruit Farm is a quaint pick-your-own experience, which is a rarity today, along with gate sales through the shop, and attending local markets around Canterbury. No produce is sold to retailers, wholesalers, or distributors. At this orchard, they've cultivated not only trees and fruits but also a loyal clientele who appreciate the quality and freshness of their produce along with some old classic varieties with pre-sale orders taken each season.

The orchard is 4.8280ha with 1ha (approximately) of raspberries and cherries which are under cover, with the balance (mostly stone fruit) being outside. The orchard was first planted in 2012, with strawberries and raspberries being the first crops. These days the orchard produces: Strawberries Raspberries, Boysenberries, Cherries, Plums, Peaches, Nectarines, and Peacharines.

As you step out into the orchard you will see the thoughtful care and layout the vendors have taken into consideration when creating this private oasis. There is an additional 1.2ha (approximately) that could be further developed to diversify and introduce new varieties of fruits or expand some of the best sellers which do well in this location. The orchard offers a varietal mix to meet the changing market demands.

The home has double glazing throughout, three generous bedrooms, and two bathrooms. The master bedroom is situated at one end of the house with access to its own private decking area. Generous open-plan living and dining area heated by a large log burner with a heat transfer system has an effortless flow to a separate lounge. The updated kitchen has ample bench space with soft close drawers, granite benchtops, gas hob, double wall oven, rangehood, dishwasher, and walk-in pantry. The sheltered outdoor entertaining area is great for entertaining with a mature garden setting to enjoy those summer BBQ's. Water to the property is provided via two wells, one for the fruit farm and one for the house, outbuildings, and strawberries.

Act fast if you would like to be in for the fast-approaching harvest this season!
