22.067 Ha Farming/Lifestyle Block Near Darfield

A well located smaller rural block, offering an easy commute to Christchurch and the thriving rural service town of Darfield. Whether you are searching for your first lifestyle property, a manageable finishing or grazing block, or even a compact dairy support unit, this versatile holding truly ticks the boxes.

With just over 22 hectares of highly regarded Lismore shallow silt loam soils, this property offers an exceptional platform for a range of farming or lifestyle pursuits. Supported by its own private well, reliable spray irrigation and well thought out subdivision into practical paddocks, the land is set up for both efficiency and productivity.

The block presents as tidy and well maintained, allowing the next owner the freedom to further enhance and develop the property, or simply continue farming with confidence. Fencing, stock water systems and irrigation infrastructure are all in sound condition, providing a robust foundation for seamless day to day operation.

Irrigation is delivered via a travelling Southern Cross gun, fed from the private bore and supported by a consent allowing 22 L per second with a fortnightly allocation of 12,747 cubic metres. This is easily sufficient for dairy support or stock finishing. The property currently runs an 11 shift rotation, with two shifts per paddock, creating an efficient 11 day return interval. There is also scope to extend or further develop the irrigation system if desired. The well also supplies stock water and has separate pipelines for both domestic houses with the added comfort of a Hallet UV & Ecosoft Nitrate filtration system to ensure drinking water of top quality.

In addition to its quality soils and strong farming credentials, the property is well supported by an excellent range of improvements, including a tidy and functional set of cattle yards with a load out ramp, a 6 bay open pole shed, a second 6 bay pole shed with gated or closed bays, as well as a dedicated water pump shed and storage tank Adding to the appeal are two well presented residential dwellings:

MAIN UNIT: A modern 1 bedroom home with open plan kitchen and living, a large loft or storage room, separate bathroom, log burner, plus a small insulated double room hobby or sleepout with power and heating, positioned adjacent to the main dwelling.

SECONDARY UNIT: A tidy 2 bedroom cottage currently tenanted, featuring open plan living, log burner, recent new carpet, ranch sliders opening to a private deck and a detached single garage.

Properties offering this level of potential, dual housing options and such a prime location are seldom available.

With quality soils, strong infrastructure and multiple income streams, this is an opportunity that is sure to attract strong enquiry.

Deadline closing 12pm on Tuesday 10th March Plus GST (if any)
