This lovingly developed and maintained lifestyle property is all ready for new owners to enjoy.
After nearly 20 years of living on this delightful property the current owners are reluctantly selling to move closer to family. This is a fantastic opportunity to step straight into a lifestyle property that also produces a good supplementary income where all the hard work and development has long been done.
The very well presented four bedroom, two bathroom, home features beautiful polished wooden floors, milled from timbre on this property, a wood burner with wet back, a modern kitchen with an induction stove top and electric oven. Power from both the mains and solar panels with a sophisticated control system and 5.5 KW battery that automatically kicks in when the grid has a power cut, and supplies the grid when excess power is being produced. A sunny open plan living area that opens onto a private deck. A sheltered, peaceful and private location, set well back from the main road, down a tree lined driveway.The bedrooms are all well sized with the fourth bedroom cleverly located and designed to be a separate living space with its own bathroom and entrance, when visitors come, or as potential farm-stay type holiday accommodation.
Sitting on 6.6 hectares of fertile land just 10 minutes drive from bustling Kaitaia, this charming property is an ideal change from the hustle of the city, yet within easy reach of all the amenities a town has to offer.
The orchard has been organic since 1990, and is Bio-Grow Certified. It is on the market as a going concern with all the equipment needed to run the orchard included, along with contracts and contacts for selling the fruit that is harvested, and an in depth explanation of the both the growing side of the orchard and the selling side, with on going support if required.
There are approximately 1800 trees with 24 varieties of citrus fruit along with persimmons, bananas, and feijoa. The current owners only spend 3 to 4 hrs per day working on the orchard. They have developed efficient systems and are more than happy to share their methods with a new owner. Financial statements also available.
If running an orchard is not your wish this property could very easily convert to a more stock or horse focused property, maybe even lease the orchard out and get some extra income, or simply kick back and enjoy the beautiful environment and tranquil atmosphere.
An excellent local Primary School is within walking distance and free buses take older children to secondary schools just a short drive away in Kaitaia.
90 mile beach with fantastic fishing and surf at Shipwreck Bay on the west coast are just 25 minutes away, and if the weather doesn’t suit there the east coast with its stunning white sand beaches are just a half hour in the other direction.
Kaitaia and the Far North offer a lifestyle unlike any other part of NewZealand. Beautiful beaches with barely a sole on them. Stunning forests with ancient kauri, walking and cycling tracks throughout the region, a fishing, surfing, diving paradise, warm temperate weather, and friendly welcoming people.
