Overview

Unique Lifestyle Property with Income Potential

This exceptional 4.683ha property is thoughtfully developed to offer an idyllic lifestyle with strong income potential through its versatile features, approved developments, and future opportunities. Authentic Log Cabin A charming Douglas Fir Log Cabin, built in the mid-1990s, sits at the heart of the property. The two-level home includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and open-plan living with French doors opening to a large deck and hot tub. The master bedroom also opens to its own deck with views across the land and native forest. Currently operating as a holiday home, the cabin is approved for up to 12 guests and has run successfully for 20 years, with excellent potential for further growth. A recent renovation preserves its character while updating key areas. Modern Four-Bedroom Home A second dwelling, built in 2007, offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and open-plan living flowing to a spacious deck with views over the property. Eco-Campground Opportunity Approved consents allow for an eco-campground with 28 sites (16 tent, 12 powered), an office, an accessible cabin, and an amenities block with ablutions and kitchen/dining facilities. Capacity is approved for up to 100 guests. Additional Improvements & Infrastructure Preliminary survey and engineering advice suggests a third potential building site and positive prospects for subdivision into three river-front blocks. The land is fully fenced for grazing. Improvements include an 80sqm half-round barn with mezzanine, power, and lighting; two 12×4m sheds/workshops with power, a farm water tank, and sheep yards. Natural Features The Waitawheta River forms the north-eastern boundary, offering a swimming hole, picnic area, and walking tracks. The location provides easy access to DOC tracks, fishing spots, the Hauraki Rail Trail, and popular outdoor activities.
