Significant Opportunity Awaits Going Concern Dairy

Dickinson Road is a 169 hectare, Fonterra supply, dairy unit with a historic best production of 149,222kg MS, peak milking 485 - 495 cows and a three-year average between 2014 and 2017 of 145,389kg MS. The property comprises three titles with a balance of low-lying flats, easy to medium hill and includes significant plateau areas estimated at 30 hectares that hold a north easterly aspect and obvious horticulture potential.

Improvements within the property include the three bedroom homestead with an in-ground pool, separate sleep out and two other modest dwellings - one being three bedroom and the other two bedroom, a 40 bail rotary dairy shed, along with a selection of support buildings including multiple calf rearing sheds, multi bay implement sheds, a wool shed and multiple hay barns.
Being offered as a going concern, its 500 LIC recorded jersey cow herd has a breeding history that dates back over multiple generations and 50 plus years of selected breeding.
With an altitude that doesn't exceed 50 MASL, a free draining loam soil type and desirable extensive elevated plateau land with a north easterly aspect, parts of the property are well suited for kiwifruit and other horticulture crop development.

With several access points off the farm onto Dunlop Road, along with its coastal location and close proximity to Waiotahe Beach and Opotiki town, there is a possible opportunity to develop these elevated areas into very desirable sought after lifestyle properties.
Opotiki is a provincial destination with a strong community focus and radiates a desirable temperate climate that has been long recognised for its relaxed coastal lifestyle. The area is rich in natural resource and both the Opotiki and Whakatane townships provide a relatively broad range of commercial agri, horticultural, forestry, aqua, and tourism services.
