At 461 Woodbank Road, just 5km - a mere 7 minute drive from the centre of the thriving alpine village of Hanmer Springs - you’ll find a property with a range of options presenting.

The property comprises 19.14 hectares. It is a rear section, resulting in privacy and a peaceful, secluded location.

The land is zoned in the settlement area of the Woodbank Landscape Management Area, under the Hurunui District Council scheme plan. This results in the potential to subdivide the property into 4 lifestyle properties, each with a minimum of 4 hectares.
Water is available from the county supply. Power is available at the entrance off Woodbank Road. The drive is able to be utilised as a Right of Way for access to up to 4 lots created.

The property is planted in 5 year old pinus radiata (pine) trees - on approximately 16 of the 19 hectares. These were established following the harvest of the previous rotation of pine trees. The entire planted area is registered in the New Zealand Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS). From next year onwards, the trees generate NZ Carbon Units which are saleable.

So there is potential to develop 4 sites, all of which may choose to have their own area of carbon unit producing (pine) trees remain, or reduce to facilitate the establishment of a residence.

A great range of options and opportunities. The outlook and views of the surrounding countryside are stunning. The location is superb, with amenities available in Hanmer Springs. The main centre of Christchurch is 135km, is just under 2 hours drive.

Contact Andy Nurse for further information including the price, and to arrange inspection of the property which is strictly by appointment.
