Avalon sits at the end of Brownlie Road and is on the market for the first time in years. Minutes from Wairoa, the house and sheds were part of a larger farm that was cut off by a previous owner. The dwelling is a magnificent 331m2 with a 42m2 deck catching that early morning sun.

Four bedrooms and two bathrooms are supported by a large formal room, TV den and kitchen. The games room is a feature. Full sized snooker table and homely open fire will make entertaining a breeze. Upstairs there is room for four beds, and the toilet is on hand. Sheds are large and very useful. The 350m2 (more or less) shed has many storage options.

Tractor or boat storage plus room for implements in the main structure with a two-bay garage and mechanic pit on one side. There is a third toilet servicing this area. The second shed used to hold 4000 bales of hay in the day of larger land holding and farming. Access to your private white bait stand and river swimming hole finishes the area across a large lawn. An orchard with hen run is in a holding paddock at the end of the lawn.

The 9.6140 ha property is currently in Maize and is part of the renowned Wairoa silt loams that grow great yields. Wairoa averages are 18-20 tonne per ha for squash and 12-14 tonne per ha for maize. An immediately adjacent neighbouring land parcel exceeded 10,000 trays per ha for Hayward kiwifruit and 12-13,000 trays per hectare for Gold (uncovered). Licences were sold and that block is now in citrus which also thrives.

Good numbers in anyone's language and with a river water consent in place the possibilities are endless.

Come and see for yourself.
