Grazing or Horticulture?

Located only a short drive from Whakatane is this well developed 14.6 hectare grazing property, which is currently used for dairy heifer grazing. The flat contour of the property is well suited for cropping or may even suit horticultural development. The property is subdivided by a nice wide central race into 24 paddocks, fencing is post and batten and Braemar water is reticulated to all paddocks.

A three bedroom weatherboard home is situated near the front of the property, built in the 1950s has timber joinery and an iron roof. A single garage is situated within the same fenced section. Further improvements include two haybarns and an original six bale walk through complete with most plant.

This is a unique opportunity to secure a very good piece of land in a great location that does not come to the market often, the vendor's genuine motivation requires this property to be sold.
