3544 State Highway 2 , Mangatarata, Hauraki

Dairy with development

Situated on the foothills of the Hauraki Plains lies this large-scale 238 -hectare (more or less) dairy farm in Mangatarata, with beautiful rolling character and scope for further subdivision.

This farm is set up with all you need, including a 40-bail internal rotary cowshed, a reliable bore water system, and great support shedding. For the 2022/2023 season, the farm supplied Fonterra with 168,825kgMS milking 520 dairy cows. In addition to being a productive dairy farm, the property boasts a huge lifestyle component. Various stands of mature trees are scattered around the property, wetlands, multiple ponds and dams, not to mention views from the rear of the farm that can stretch all the way from Matamata to the Sky Tower in Auckland on a good day.

Fencing consists of seven-wire electric boundary fencing and two to three-wire electric internal fencing. The lifestyle benefit is very apparent if you're a keen hunter with foul, fishing, pigs, and deer all nearby. The farm has also recently undergone a subdivision to create 10 lifestyle lots on the northern boundary and the newly formed road opens the opportunity for further development to the new owners. With views on the farm which extend all the way from Matamata to the Sky Tower on a good day.

Hauraki Plains College in Ngatea, which is 13 kilometres away, is an easy trip each day. Ngatea provides you with your essential goods and services while the general area affords several leisure activities with the Hauraki Golf Club and Bowls Club just down the road, three cafes within proximity, plus popular holiday hotspots in Kaiaua and the Thames Coast close by. Situated just off State Highway 2, a 67 or 78 kilometre commute north or south will take you to Manukau and Hamilton respectively.

There is a lot to like here, and our owners have made it very clear this will be their last season. This farm will be sold so call us to arrange your viewing and lock in your next farm early in the season!
