23 Haswell Street, Eketahuna, Tararua, Wairarapa

Here is a wonderful opportunity to invest in a rural and residential property right on the boundary of Eketahuna township. 16ha (more of less) in eight freehold titles with an attractive three bedroom home and masses of farm sheds.

Partially zoned residential, with three lifestyle sections approved by Tararua District Council for subdivision, the balance is zoned rural. The farm lends itself to multiple land uses, such as calf rearing, prime stock finishing or dairy grazing. Soils are good quality free draining silt loams with mainly flat to very easy contour.

The late 1980s three bedroomed homestead is elevated with nice views over the town. The kitchen, renovated recently, adjoins a spacious dining/family room and a large, separate lounge. Nearby is a standalone double bed sleepout and bathroom, ideal for an extended family or possibly an Airbnb.

Being an ex-dairy farm, there are lots of sheds and covered concrete floors, previously used as a large-scale calf rearing operation. Twelve paddocks are fenced with conventional post and wire, mostly with electric outriggers. Nearby is a good set of cattle yards and loading race and at the eastern end of the property, there is a three bay implement shed with legal track access to Alfredton Road. Domestic and stock water is on town supply, as is sewerage. Native trees offer shelter and shade, along with a small eucalyptus stand for firewood.

This small farm, with land use and subdivision opportunities, is well located near the iconic rural township of Eketahuna in Tararua district. Eke has a great community vibe and is well serviced by shops, cafes and the Eketahuna Inn, all within an easy drive of Masterton (30 minutes) and Palmerston North (50 minutes).
