Diverse income steams and purchase options

Located just five minutes off State Highway 3 on Santoft Road, this 269.74-hectare property offers a diverse range of soil types and income streams. The Pukepuke and Himatangi sand soils provide an excellent balance of free-draining areas - ideal for winter grazing - and heavier sands that continue to produce well through summer. Strategically planted forest blocks deliver an immediate income stream from carbon credits and a medium-term return from harvestable timber. Currently used by the owner as a finishing and support block, the property has the infrastructure and scale to operate as a stand-alone unit or to add significant value to an existing farming business. The contour of the property is predominantly flat, with over 120 hectares mowable, 60 hectares of grazable easy dune, and an additional 80 hectares of pines managed by a highly regarded local forestry company. The pastured area has undergone an annual renewal program and features a mix of well-established modern cultivars, mature pasture species, and native-style grasses on the easy dune areas. Historically, crops such as maize (silage), kale, oats, and lucerne have been successfully grown here. A strong history of fertiliser application is reflected in the current soil fertility results. Improvements include a four-bedroom home with a range of support buildings, a large three-bay shed and two sets of cattle yards. Excellent stock water is supplied from a high-quality bore and reticulated across the property via 50-40mm mainlines, with at least one trough in every paddock. The property is well subdivided and benefits from well metalled and sand-based laneways across the majority of the property. In addition to pastoral, carbon, and forestry production, the property also offers abundant recreational opportunities, including waterfowl and upland game hunting on Lake Herbert and the fenced off wetlands across the property. Purchase options can be tailored to suit your needs - either the entire 269 hectares or one of the two existing titles: 80 hectares with the dwelling and the majority of improvements, or 186 hectares of bare land (including 80 hectares in pasture) featuring excellent cattle yards and most of the forestry (80 hectares).
