3643 Wharekopae Road, Rere, Gisborne

Taheke, located on the edge of the Wharekopae River at 3643 Wharekopae Road is an honest hill country farm.

This balanced property, under its current management, is farming 3,300 stock units, circa 9.7 su/ effective ha under a breeding finishing policy. The property is a mixture of steep and easy hill country, with the benefit of 15 hectares of river flats which are well utilised with chicory crops or permanent grasses to enable lamb finishing.

The property is set up and has benefited from years of investment in infrastructure. There is a laneway from front to back, and two satellite yards in strategic locations, making stock work straightforward. Covered yards and a 4-stand woolshed, cattle yards and load-outs are located at the front of the farm, along with reticulated water in places, good dams and consistent long-term fertiliser history and a network of tracks enabling you to get around the property in a moment. The farm is also supported by two large implement sheds, a workshop, and stables.

From the lounge of the 3-bedroom (plus office) family homestead, you have views of the Rere Falls and are only a short walk down to the river, with over 3km of the Wharekopae River running along the boundary there is plenty of opportunity for family fun in a private stretch of waterway.

Rere School is only 3.7km away and is the hub of the community, while Gisborne City is an easy 40-minute drive.

The property has been the perfect first farm for the owners who are now looking to take the next step in their business endeavours.

Now it’s your turn to reap the rewards of their efforts.
