NEW ZEALAND HAS MANY FACES…

St. Arnaud – Lake Rotoiti

Are you tired of living in an overcrowded city or town?

Here is your opportunity to change your lifestyle! This property offers a combination of things, difficult to find anywhere else in the world. The property is located approximately 1 hours drive from Nelson and 1 hour 15 minutes drive from Blenheim.

Only a few minutes away to St Arnaud is Lake Rotoiti - one of New Zealand’s most beautiful mountain lakes and 35 minutes to Rainbow Ski Field. Located right in the heart of the Nelson Lakes National Park, an area that is attracting many tourists from all over the world every year.
The area offers nearly any outdoor activity you might able to think of and is famous for its fantastic brown trout fishing. The healthy, typically alpine climate, clean air and water and the option to grow your own things in an unpolluted environment will support your idea of a healthy and alternative lifestyle.

The spacious 1930s character home was re-located to this property and has been beautifully restored and refurbished also with a new roof. The house is fully insulated and has a great dining-kitchen with a special wood burner and wetback. The very practical designed home has many features and is very tastefully decorated. The lounge has a large bay window with outlook over garden. The area around the house has recently been landscaped with rocks, many scrubs and other mainly native plants. The wooden deck can be accessed directly from the sunroom adjacent to the lounge. The house further consists of 3 double bedrooms and an amazing bathroom with polished wooden floor.

The 27.74ha (68.5 acre) property has areas with native bushland, beautiful stands of native beech trees and an amazing alpine wetland. Approximately  8.ha of the property is planted in 24 year old Douglas-fir trees which are an excellent investment and rewarding income possibility.

The present owners of the property are also successful breeders of Llamas (Guanacos  www.guanacos.co.nz  ) but the land would also be suitable other farm animals. To support the farming activity there is a 4-bay implement shed with a large lockup workshop attached (Three-phase power) as well as a shelter/feeding shed for the Llamas which would be ideal as a hay shed.
