Located a mere three kilometres from the Wairoa town bridge, Redstone Hill offers buyers the best of both worlds. Such a private property so close to town is a rare find in the Wairoa District and the opportunities are endless. 46.18 hectares of farm with 16 well-fenced paddocks and trough water via town supply. Traditional pastures with good stock access to the woolshed, covered and cattle yards via good farm tracks. There is also a full working red metal quarry on farm operated via a consent and agreement between a private operator and the vendor. The seam has many years to run and the ongoing extraction looks very positive. Currently occupying four hectares of the property with separate access so there is no business interruption on the rest of the farm. The land in the quarry area also returns $700 per ha per annum to compensate for the inability to graze it. Easy access flats at the back of the property have been cropped in the past and are currently in pasture. There is a very strong natural spring above the flats for those considering horticulture on this area. Eight hectares of opportunity right on the main highway between Gisborne and Napier. You will find a well-positioned three bedroom dwelling at the heart of the property. The house is 131 sqm and looks out over the flats of Wairoa to the Awamate Hills in the distance with unparalleled views. There is also an attached carport and adjacent stand-alone bedroom. With a variety of shedding, the farm has a woolshed and storage bay with a one-bedroom lounge area attached. There is attached on the other side a covered yard with sheep loadout not far away from a round hay barn. The 150 sqm powered workshop (including lean-to) is just down the hill next to the cattle yards with load-out facilities. The doorway to the workshop is 4.2m high, 2.7m across and 12m deep. This main bay has a concrete floor. This farm is genuinely for sale with a motivated vendor looking forward to the next phase. Viewings by appointment only.

Situated on State Highway 2 Morere, this 25.33 hectare hill country property faces east and boasts some of the best views in the area. This retreat/hunting block is a private piece of paradise with pheasant, deer and goats in good supply. With koura and watercress in the first stream plus fruit trees, it's a property that supports the notion of living off the land. Approximately half the block is in pasture with the rest in second growth scrub and bush. There is reasonable tracking through the property. The paddocks beside the state highway contain sheds, stock yards and a stock load out facility. A hut on the hill with solar and batteries to run the fridge complete the buildings. Views of the Whareratas and Mahia Beach from the top of the property add real charm and tranquility to this opportunity. For those looking for short-term escapes from the hustle and bustle of town or someone wanting to commune with the land full-time, this is a property with appeal. Motivated vendor.

Complete this lifestyle project and you will be well rewarded. The relocated, unrenovated house sits on a 5.44ha slice of paradise and is awaiting your flare and attention. One big plus is power is all ready to go. An extensive amount of planting around the property and river has been undertaken, along with a 3 bay pole shed attached to a 30,000 litre water tank. If you are looking for something smaller, the adjacent 4.222ha property is also available.
