589 Coutts Island Road, Coutts Island, Christchurch City, Canterbury

It’s farming but so close to town! The best of both world’s is truly possible with this highly productive farming property located so close to the city. 

198.2447 hectares (more or less) the property is currently grazing cattle, both beef and dairy support, along with winter grazing. Excellent quality infrastructure is in place for future success with good quality cattle yards and crush, three large sheds, and three-wire electric fencing. An exceptionally good water consent ensures future owners potential upside and options.

The ample low-cost irrigation water supply from two underground bores is a standout feature at this property. Stock water is reticulated from a storage tank via a surface pump to stock troughs. Comprehensive irrigation covers the property via pivot and solid set. 

Well subdivided into approximately 51 paddocks, the property is currently being consented to give the ability to intensively winter graze on 32 hectares. There is a good history of fertiliser underpinning solid growth of predominantly base ryegrass, plantain and clover with some kale and rape.  

Offering options to live on-farm or accommodate staff, a character cottage with sunny open-plan living spaces sits in a private setting among mature trees. Compact and cosy, the house is kept toasty and warm with radiators heated by a diesel burner. A single garage is used as a laundry and there is a triple-car garage adjacent.  

The property location centrally puts the owners in the box seat when it comes to enjoying the outdoors or the city lifestyle. Schooling is nearby in Belfast with shops, restaurants, cafes, theatres, libraries, etc. all within easy reach.  

This is a seldom-seen opportunity to purchase an excellent farm business in an exceptional location.

The vendor invites offers in excess of $48,000/ha + GST (if any)
