Productive Farmland Meets Timeless Rural Beauty

In the heart of sunny Tasman, Stratheden Farm offers the ideal balance of productivity, lifestyle, and natural beauty. This 105-hectare property combines 40 hectares of fertile flats and 52 hectares of moderate hill country, with the remainder in steep native areas including 9 hectares protected under a QEII Covenant featuring original forest and regenerating mānuka.

Formerly a dairy operation milking up to 220 cows, the farm has been thoughtfully transitioned to a regenerative beef and Valais Blacknose sheep enterprise. The land is conservatively managed to maintain soil health and biodiversity, offering carbon credit opportunities. More than 70 paddocks are linked by a practical laneway system, and the property is exceptionally well - equipped with Te Pari cattle yards (200 head capacity), two sheep yards, and quality fencing - much of it new.

Irrigation is a permitted take from the Orinoco Creek (3,600m³ per week), typically used for about three months annually. Around 15 hectares are currently irrigated - 11ha via fixed grid and the remainder by pods - with potential to expand. Soils on the flats are Sherry Sandy Loam, known for natural fertility and excellent drainage, while the hill country is Orinoco Hill Soils with medium fertility.

Two well-appointed homes sit on the property. The main residence, built around 2005, spans 183sqm with expansive decks and sweeping rural views. It features four bedrooms, three bathrooms (including an ensuite), an office, and open plan living with a Masport log fire and wetback. At the property’s entrance, a 90m² two-bedroom cottage (circa 2000) provides additional accommodation and has been successfully operated as an Airbnb.

Water is plentiful, supplied from a gravity fed spring and a well, both UV - filtered. Numerous sheds, including a 3 bay implement shed and large lockable tractor shed, support the farming operation.

Sheltered between the Southern Alps and Kahurangi ranges, this snow free location enjoys reliable rainfall and year-round grass growth. With subdivision potential, abundant wildlife, and a setting just one kilometre from the renowned Motueka River, Stratheden Farm represents a rare opportunity to secure a productive and regenerative farming property in one of New Zealand’s most desirable rural regions.
