Pongakawa - Exceptional First Farm

Description

Embark on your dairy farming journey with this exceptional first farm property at Pongakawa, on the coast between Te Puke and Whakatane.

Having 71.33ha in total the farm consistently milks 195 cows through the 18-aside herringbone cowshed, well supported with Buster Cover in-shed feed system, palm kernel/fertiliser bunker, dosatron, PTO driven generator, calf milk vat, 4 bay implement shed having 2 bay with a concrete floor and lockable, a 40ft high cube shipping container which is also lockable, and a generous calf rearing shed, all immaculately presented and maintained.

The current effluent discharge consent expires on 30 April 2026 requiring the storage ponds to be decommissioned and replaced with a 500,000 L storage bladder. This has been purchased and will be included in the farm chattels.

Water is supplied to the property from the local Council and charged by the cubic meter.

Of flat contour, all 39 paddocks are visible from the modern and spacious split-level home with 4 bedrooms. The master bedroom is on the upper level above the double garage with an ensuite and heat pump. The heart of the home is the open plan lounge, dining, and kitchen area with a stunning splashback featuring a coastal shot from a local photographer. A covered BBQ area and a fully fenced (compliant) swimming and spa pool area extend out from the dining room. The pony paddock and shed along with the free-range chook pen and house will remain for the next family to enjoy.

While the cows are grazing, grab your net and capitalize on the whitebait season with your stand just metres from home, imagine fresh whitebait fritters. For the avid hunter, there is a duck pond on the farm, what a memorable opening morning.

Do not let this chance pass by - secure your stake in this prime dairy farming opportunity.

With the neighboring dairy farm also for sale, viewing is by appointment.
