Welcome to 1055 Waiteika Road, Opunake – a 178.92 hectare West Coast lease dairy farm that produced on average 136,000 kgMS over the last three seasons. Sitting in a great location on Upper Waiteika Road, the property offers a nice mix of flat and rolling contour, with the Waiteika and Mangahume Streams adding both character and reliable water sources.
The layout makes day-to-day management easy being divided into 74 paddocks and linked by good central race and several smaller lateral races. Water comes from local streams and is pumped to tanks, feeding the entire farm so every paddock has at least one trough. Effluent is managed through a pond and travelling irrigator system, consented for up to 420 cows and running through to September 2040. Infrastructure includes a 40-bail rotary shed with Waikato plant, ACRs, and in-shed feeding, plus several haybarns, calf sheds, and a large implement shed – everything you need to run an efficient operation.
Three homes sit across the property, making it ideal for family, staff or extra accommodation. The main home has four bedrooms plus an office, two lounges, a heat pump, and two log fires, all set in mature gardens. The Kaweora Road side includes a tidy three-bedroom home and a two-bedroom cottage, both with good heating and garaging.
In addtion to the dairy unit, a 100 hectare freehold dairy support block located at the top of Kaweora Road is being utilised for grazing, wintering off and production of supplement which is also on the market for sale.
With solid production, reliable infrastructure and great living options, 1055 Waiteika Road is a proven dairy unit ready for its next chapter.
