Just minutes from Paparoa village, this idyllic 43-acre lifestyle block is privately nestled in sheltered hills with its own microclimate, thoughtfully cultivated for self-sufficiency, healthy living and a slower pace of life.
The mature spray-free orchard features 60+ fruit and nut trees across 40+ varieties, including avocado, macadamia, figs, stone fruit, apples, bananas, cherimoya, pear and citrus, delivering a generous year-round harvest. Flower gardens attract birds and bees, while the polyhouse and vegetable beds make fresh picking easy.
The 25 acres of grazing are divided into 20+ well-fenced paddocks, dappled with native and exotic shelter trees. Currently supporting around 20 cattle and a small breeding flock of sheep, the land suits those wanting to raise their own meat, manage stock naturally, or lease for grazing. Multiple dams provide gravity-fed water to troughs throughout, and fencing protects pockets of native bush and seasonal streams.
The warm, rustic barn conversion offers open-plan living, a spacious kitchen, a Homewood stove with wetback, plus electric oven and gas cooktop. Upstairs, two loft-style bedrooms offer comfortable accommodation with excellent storage. Outside, a Mediterranean-style patio shaded by grapevines overlooks gardens, hills, bush and birdlife.
The half-round barn provides generous covered storage for large projects, multiple vehicles, boat, caravan or horse float, with further shelter from two stables, a car port, woodshed and double skyline garage/workshop.
Whether your dream is growing your own food, keeping animals or simply enjoying a private country setting, this property offers the foundations for a rewarding self-sufficient lifestyle - just 12 minutes from Pahi boat ramp for great fishing on the Kaipara Harbour.
