Premium 117 ha Maungakaramea dry stock block

1070 Tangihua Road is a genuine Maungakaramea farm of approximately 117.76 hectares across two titles.

It offers a well-maintained farming platform, sound infrastructure, reliable water and a comfortable three-bedroom home. The property is well suited to dairy support, beef finishing, establishing Northlands next beef stud or running a mixed farming operation.

The real strength of this block is its impressive stock-carrying capacity, particularly through summer. Heavy, summer-safe soils and reliable rain off the Tangihuas mean more grazing days and more kilograms of liveweight - put simply, more money in the bank. This is a serious farming proposition, backed by proven financials available to genuine parties.

This is one of the tidiest dry-stock blocks I have walked over. With genuine scale, dependable summer performance and the infrastructure already in place, it is the sort of farm you can step onto and get straight to work.

Well balanced, well set up and located in a proven Maungakaramea farming district, 1070 Tangihua Road is a very appealing opportunity for its next owner.

The purchase price is plus GST (if any).
