The property offers a practical investment proposition for purchasers focused on premium variety plantings, immediate production, and long-term asset performance.
The property encompasses approximately 3.5 hectares, with the core investment asset being 1.85 canopy hectares (Licenced for 1.83ha) of G3 Gold kiwifruit. This premium variety continues to underpin demand within New Zealand’s kiwifruit industry and remains highly sought after by growers and investors. The orchard is well laid out, with solid vine structures and proven production capability.
Importantly, the kiwifruit orchard is fully covered, (except for approx 1300m2) providing protection from wind and hail and supporting crop security and yield consistency. In addition, the orchard is Certified Organic by BioGro, enhancing market positioning and appealing to growing demand for organically produced gold kiwifruit.
The property is being sold with this season’s crop, providing incoming purchasers with immediate income continuity. The current season’s crop is estimated at approximately 20,000–22,000 trays, making this an attractive opportunity for investors seeking near term returns alongside longer term production and capital value.
Critical infrastructure is already in place to support ongoing orchard operations. Water is supplied via a bore with filtration, complemented by a two million litre holding pond to meet irrigation requirements. Frost protection is addressed through a dual sprinkler system, with automation managed via the Harvest.com system, allowing for efficient, responsive frost management during critical periods.
From an operational perspective, the property is well equipped. A near new 79 metre shed with carport provides excellent space for machinery, vehicles, and orchard equipment. Additional sheds and a large shipping container further enhance storage and operational efficiency. Supporting amenities include a separate cabin currently utilised as a smoko room and standalone toilet facilities, catering well for staff and contractors.
A four-bedroom farmhouse is located on the property, providing practical onsite accommodation or supplementary housing for labour or owner involvement. The dwelling is functional in nature and offers flexibility depending on future plans or investment strategy.
The property is conveniently positioned approximately 33km from Cambridge, 37km from Te Awamutu, and 21km from Putaruru, offering good access to labour pools, service centres, and regional infrastructure while retaining a productive rural operating environment.
