Set in a strong coastal location, this 171-hectare dairy unit is the sort of operation that speaks for itself - proven performance, practical infrastructure, and a solid investment for those after long-term returns.
Running 300 Friesian cows and producing an average of 109,397 kgMS over the past three seasons, it's a tidy setup with room to push things further. The soils - Red Hill Loam and Pinaki Sand - give a good base, and the layout is functional and well-maintained.
Infrastructure includes a 25-aside herringbone shed, feed pad, five-bay implement shed, three-bay calf shed, and a solid roadside cattle yard setup. Effluent is managed by a three-pond system with approx. twenty hectares irrigated via pods. Water supply is reliable with both Te Maire and Bradley schemes in place.
The farm is split into 53 paddocks with multi-wire electric fencing, has a limestone-based race system, and a good mix of gentle-to-rolling country with a few steeper bits. Pasture remains the main feed source, backed up with PKE, maize, and turnips grown on-farm.
The home is a comfortable three-bedroom with a sleepout - ideal for a couple, young family, or staff.
This is a good all-rounder - consistent results, scope to lift performance, and the kind of investment that keeps ticking. Whether you're stepping into farm ownership or adding to your portfolio, this one's worth a look.
