8014 State Highway 1, Taihape, Rangitikei

Small farm or lifestyle with river access

In a great location just three kilometres south of Taihape, this 20.3749ha tidy little farm is unique and boasts easy access to the Hautapu River, a renown fishery. Featuring a tidy and modern three-bedroom home nestled in a private setting, with expansive views across flats and farmland to the Ruahine Ranges.

Major additions in 2011 included an office and a spacious separate lounge that flows out onto a large deck, complementing the two pre-existing decks; one for the spa pool with magnificent Ruahine Range views, and the other off the open plan kitchen, dining and family room area. There is double glazing throughout the master bedroom with en-suite, and two other bedrooms plus the bathroom.

Multiple tidy implement sheds with a lock up and workshop, complete the full range of stock facilities which include a wool-shed and excellent cattle yards.

The farm is mostly free-draining, fertile, flat land that is superbly fenced and watered from an excellent on-farm spring. Most of the farm has been re-grassed.

The owners have also developed a wetland that is planted with many natives and an observation Maimai to boot.

A rare opportunity to secure a modern home in a great location with superb views and flat land with exclusive access to the Hautapu River, suitable for a range of farming options.
