Otara Point Farms is located some twenty minutes from Dargaville and has some key features that sets itself above others. This 292 hectare Dairy unit in 6 freehold titles is 50% flat and the balance is a gently rolling contour suitable for growing maize and grass silage. The flats are Kaipara Marine Clay, which is well complemented by Te Kopuru sand giving the property a nice balance and flexibility with seasonal weather change.
Two years ago, a pivot irrigation and hard hose system was added to the farm, with a generous consent to take water at 58 liters per second from the Owairangi creek until 2031. The total area irrigated is 100 hectares. The further infrastructure supporting the farm includes a 42 ASHB cow shed, a new 500-cow feed pad, a 6-bay implement shed, and hay barns. An old cow shed has been converted into a storage facility and the cattle yards are all on a concrete pad with a wash-down hose and power at the shed.
The farm water comes from two separate bores and is pressure-pumped to water troughs. The fencing is a mix of seven-wire and multi-wire electric boundary fencing. The internal fencing is two and one wire electric. The race system is a mix of limestone and sandstone and is generally in good condition.
Given the size of the property, it is well supported by three homes. The main house has five bedrooms and has been redecorated, the second home has three bedrooms and a renovated kitchen and the third dwelling is a comfortable three bedroom farm cottage.
The farm is currently managed for my absentee vendors, for a private viewing call me today.
