An Exceptional Reporoa Farming Opportunity

Immaculately presented, highly productive and exceptionally well set up, this outstanding 167-hectare dairy farm represents an opportunity of genuine quality in the highly regarded Reporoa farming district.
Owner-operated and maintained to an exceptional standard, the property comprises approximately 154 effective hectares of predominantly flat, highly usable country. Currently milking around 460 cows and averaging approximately 200,000kgMS annually, the farm is stocked just shy of 3 cows/ha producing close to 100 percent of bodyweight.
Free-draining Taupo ash and pumice soils with well-established topsoil provide an excellent farming platform, while approximately seven hectares of mature pine trees offer an additional asset, recently independently valued at approximately $220,000.
At the centre of the operation is an immaculately maintained 40-aside herringbone dairy shed equipped with automatic cup removers, Protrack and in-shed feeding. Two 16-tonne feed silos, a 16,000-litre milk vat and substantial yard provide excellent capacity, while a recently installed lined effluent pond with stirrer and pump services approximately 24 hectares.
A large hardstand beside the dairy provides valuable silage storage and potential for future development such as a feed pad or concrete feed bunkers. Across the farm, paddocks are exceptionally well fenced and generally consistent in size, supported by wide, well-maintained races and an effective water system.
Supporting infrastructure is equally impressive, including a two-bay lock-up workshop with four adjoining open bays, two of which have concrete floors the other two act as overflow for calf rearing. There is a separate four-bay purpose-built calf-rearing barn with excellent airflow and a substantial lean-to for additional storage and for transitioning calves outside.
Accommodation comprises a four-bedroom, two-bathroom home, three-bedroom, one bathroom home and separate single-person quarters, all well maintained, presented and meeting Healthy Homes standards.
What sets this farm apart is the completeness of the offering. Production, contour, soils, infrastructure, accommodation and exceptional presentation combine to create a genuinely well-rounded farming asset. There is everything you need here and very little you don't.
For the incoming purchaser, that creates genuine choice - continue with an established and proven farming system or utilise the contour, infrastructure and capacity to further develop or intensify the operation.
Above all, this property is a testament to its current owners. Years of care, investment and pride are evident throughout, leaving an outstanding farming asset ready for its next chapter.
For those seeking a premium Reporoa dairy farm where the hard work has already been done, this is an opportunity that deserves serious consideration.

An additional lifestyle property is available for purchase, featuring a substantial, beautifully presented home set on approximately 2ha with an outstanding rural outlook. Offering timeless design, excellent garaging, landscaped grounds and exceptional comfort, it provides an attractive option for purchasers seeking additional accommodation or a premium lifestyle holding alongside the farm - further information can be provided for this on request.
