Overview

A productive lifestyle with room to grow

Set on 1.479 hectares (more or less) in sought-after Te Matai Road, this is a property where lifestyle, horticulture and genuine income potential come together. Combining a beautifully presented three-bedroom family home and separate staff facilities, an established blueberry orchard and extensive grow-tunnel infrastructure, this is an opportunity to secure a productive lifestyle with multiple avenues for the future. A significant point of difference is the property's extensive grow-tunnel infrastructure, previously utilised as a kiwifruit seedling nursery. Comprising of a 900sqm tunnelhouse, 320sqm greenhouse and 60sqm greenhouse, the tunnels provide an established growing environment. Supported by an existing irrigation system servicing the nursery area, the property provides a strong platform for those looking to continue a nursery operation, grow kiwifruit seedlings or explore other plant-growing opportunities, with the potential to generate ongoing income from an established horticultural base. Complementing the nursery infrastructure is the established 0.75 hectare (more or less) Waiari Blueberry orchard, providing another productive element to this unique property. With the blueberry season running through February, March and April, the orchard offers the opportunity for pick-your-own, gate sales and farmers' market sales. Packed with antioxidants, phytoflavonoids, potassium and vitamin C, blueberries are a sought-after seasonal crop, and there is something particularly rewarding about harvesting and sharing produce grown right at home. With settlement scheduled ahead of the next season, the new owner will be well placed to enjoy the fruits of their labour for the 2027 season. At the centre of it all is a beautifully presented three-bedroom family home, where character and modern convenience have been thoughtfully brought together. The original homestead dates back to the 1930s, with an addition made in 1962, and has since been lovingly renovated while retaining the charm and original features that give the home its personality. The farmhouse-style kitchen is the heart of the home - an inviting space for family meals, country baking or making homemade blueberry jam from the property's own harvest. A wood burner with heat-transfer system provides cosy winter warmth, while upgraded joinery, double glazing and rewiring add comfort, efficiency and peace of mind. The lifestyle appeal continues outdoors, with an established home orchard providing an abundance of fresh fruit throughout the year. Mature ornamental trees, established rhododendrons and magnolias add colour, privacy and considerable character to the grounds, while the predominantly flat and well-sheltered setting creates an easy, practical environment for family living, gardening and enjoying the outdoors. For additional flexibility, “The Bothy”, a separate space currently enjoyed as cottage-style accommodation. Consented as staff facilities, it comprises a lunchroom, store/record room, bathroom and heat pump, making it ideal for extended family, guests, teenagers or those wanting a dedicated work-from-home environment. Practicality has also been well considered, with a substantial five-door, six-bay implement shed providing excellent storage and workspace. Complete with power, concrete flooring, a workshop and pit, it is well suited to machinery, equipment and projects, while an orchard toilet and chicken coop add further functionality to this productive lifestyle holding. Located on sought-after Te Matai Road and close to popular Te Ranga School, the property offers a peaceful rural setting without compromising on convenience. Here, you can combine the rewards of horticulture with the pleasures of family living – from nurturing seedlings and harvesting blueberries to enjoying a home filled with character and fixable staff facilities that provides room for family, guests or work. With established infrastructure, productive land, multiple income opportunities and beautifully presented accommodation, this is a rare opportunity to secure a property that offers the ability to grow, the space to enjoy and the potential to prosper.
