Ngaruru presents a rare opportunity to purchase a top-quality finishing block close to Masterton, in the well-established rural community of Wainuioru. This property has an enviable mix of contour, with approximately 250 hectares (60%) cultivatable of the 300 hectares total effective grazing and another 100 hectares in pines / natives. There is the opportunity for the purchaser to have a carbon income stream from the Post 89 forest. The current simple farming system is based around 2,100 ewes with lambs fattened to good weights on the fodder crops to meet Atkins Ranch minimum standards. Weaner calves are bought in October and sold in July. The water supply on Ngaruru is exceptional with quality dams providing reticulated stock water to much of the property. The soil fertility is generally optimised and pasture quality is maintained with the regular summer feed cropping programme. Building improvements include a comfortable four-bedroom family home with sleep out and swimming pool set well back off the road, three stand woolshed with covered yards, implement shed and attached new sheep yards, cattle yards and numerous other storage sheds. Ngaruru comes to the market for the first time in almost 70 years and boasts fantastic finishing country, very good water supply and fertility and still with potential for the new owners to take this farm to the next level. These properties are scarce – so call us now for further information. TENDER Closing 4:00pm, Wed 24 Nov 21 at NZR, Level 1, 16 Perry St, Masterton 5810
