This is one of those rare properties that truly offers a complete lifestyle package a beautifully presented single-level family residence, a productive income-producing orchard providing passive return, generous land with helicopter landing capability, and a proven history of long-term ownership and value appreciation in one of New Zealand’s most desirable semi-rural locations.

The Zespri Green Kiwifruit orchard spans nearly three hectares, established on high-quality fertile peat soil known for excellent drainage and versatility. Current Zespri seasonal outlooks remain strong, reinforcing the orchard’s value as a productive horticultural asset. The peat soil profile also supports land use flexibility.
