247 South Road, Mauriceville, Masterton, 5882

A conveniently located versatile 71 hectares ideally suited as a valuable add on or standalone dairy support, sheep and beef breeding/finishing, or forage supplement block.

Situated off South Road in Mauriceville equi - distance between Masterton and Eketahuna in a traditionally safe summer farming area.

Currently run as a sheep and beef operation consisting of 5 titles and subdivided into 18 paddocks for ease of management.

Of the 71.5 hectares, half is approximately flat to rolling cultivatable land, a quarter moderate to steeper hill country consisting of pasture and previously cut over pine plantation, and a quarter currently planted in pines and a smaller stand of Douglas fir.

Accessibility is a feature with the main entrance directly off South Road via a metalled driveway which flows onto a gravel laneway providing access to most of the property. Further internal access is enabled by a series of well formed tracks.

Stock water in all paddocks is from dams and natural sources and the soils with their good history of fertiliser application are well-suited for optimal pasture growth.

Building and infrastructure improvements include a 3 stand wool shed, a 3 bay (one covered) implement shed, a high stud 3 bay hayshed, and an old cowshed currently used as a workshop. Other assorted buildings and a small set of cattle and sheep yards complete this package.

For those seeking a complete, smaller or first farm block, numerous building sites, some with stunning views of the Mount Bruce are available. However, if the hassle of building is a concern the opportunity further exists to purchase an adjoining 10 further hectares and four bedroomed dwelling.

This property is a well-rounded option for those looking for a springboard to establish or expand in a traditional summer safe location.
