801 Cornwall Road, Carterton, Carterton

Outstanding on the river

A mix of soils, two terraces, irrigation, river boundaries, stunning house sites and a clear water lake - opportunities like this do not come often.

Predominantly flat in contour, the farm offers a mix of soil types including stoney wintering gravels, irrigated free-draining silts, and fertile silt loams over clay. Offering flexibility across a range of farming systems. Currently utilised finishing lamb and cattle in support of a hill country breeding operation, this property would be equally well suited to support a dairy farm to manage wintering cows, grow supplement and grow out young stock.

Supported by a consent for irrigation, which is currently spread over approximately 40 hectares via K-Line irrigation. This property has been intensively farmed with high-energy pastures and forage crops and benefits from solid fertiliser history and management. With a character two-bedroom cottage, woolshed, implement sheds, and sheep and cattle yards.

There are many fabulous house sites on the upper terrace, and consent is in place for the subdivision of two 4 hectare titles, offering options for varied ownership structure or value in a future on sell.

Some of the great appeal to this property is certainly the bounding Ruamahanga and Waingawa Rivers, with the latter boasting a private sheltered picnic site. A beautiful spring fed clear water lake has been developed by our vendor, which is full of life and trout, becoming a great training ground for the next generation to learn to fish.

This is an absolutely stunning opportunity, one that should fit in with almost any operation, or make for a wonderful blue chip holding and place to live.
