Are you wanting to escape the rat race? Covering 21.36ha of rugged mountaintop, this property comes complete with karst limestone rock formations, caves, native bush and a building site that overlooks most of Golden Bay.
A house site has been started and now just needs your vision for what to build in this truly unique spot. The off-grid house site is 600m above sea level and is woven into the limestone landscape.
To get here wind your way up the Rameka Creek Road right to the top, before you enter the private native forest. From here the private drive twists and turns 1.3km through majestic beech forest before reaching the property. Once on the property the road climbs the last hill and emerges from the forest to present Golden Bay at your feet.
Come up and bask in the views, contemplate your build and explore this ruggedly beautiful landscape. Tread carefully though as there are plenty of caves around, some containing kiwi and moa bones from ages gone by. One of the caves on this property goes over 50m underground and there are some near the house site which may suit a large wine cellar or hideaway bunker!
This property is protected with a QEII covenant, and there is already a network of walking tracks and predator traps. The birdlife is flourishing with weka, kea, tui, falcon, bellbird, robin, tomtit and kereru adding to the mix. The property also includes some ancient matai, rimu, and totara in the lower valley.
If you like hunting there are goats, pigs, fallow and red deer which need controlling.
The hilltop is 600m above sea level and has views all the way around; over Golden Bay and Farewell Spit to the north, westwards over the Takaka Valley to the Kahurangi Ranges, and south and east over protected forest towards East Takaka Scenic Reserve.
The Rameka Track is at the end of the drive which provides fantastic mountain biking opportunities and access through to Canaan Downs, Abel Tasman National Park and Harwoods Hole.
Survey is complete and title is expected in October 2025.
The neighbouring 124ha property is also for sale.
