522D Matangi Road, Tamahere

Seldom does the opportunity arise to acquire a superb small holding in a sought-after country location minutes from the city. With Hamilton and Cambridge both in easy reach, this quality 4.2 ha block has location pedigree. It is well-appointed for equestrian use and has lots on offer for horse lovers and breeders, including stables, a wash-down bay, tack room and three-bay barn. The paddocks are well fenced, and all have water. Many fine horses for racing and other disciplines have been produced on the property. But the land is by no means restricted to equestrian pursuits. Hobby farmers, horticulturists, and those wanting to live more sustainably in these uncertain times will see enormous scope there. The infrastructure is well-established, the sandy loam soil is free-draining and the property has its own bore water and a cosy three-bedroom home to complete the picture. A restful country ambience permeates this appealing lifestyle block property and outdoorsy types, who love the land, enjoy working with animals, growing crops or simply connecting with nature, will find an idyllic niche here. Matangi Country School and village are nearby, and zoning is for Hillcrest education. The area is serviced by school buses to various public and private schools. Arterial routes are handy to make commuting is a breeze and city life is in easy reach. ...
