Welcome to 591 Gladstone Road, an outstanding, irrigated, cropping and finishing block that really is in a class of its own. This property is superbly located in the heart of the renowned farming community of Gladstone in the central Wairarapa, just next door to the Gladstone community sports complex and grounds and a stones throw from the popular Gladstone Inn. This 83.9ha unit, in two titles, is operated as a mixed cropping and livestock finishing block. The land is flat with high quality alluvial soils, well suited to growing a wide range of crops which have included barley, wheat, maize, peas and small seed crops while also finishing lambs and some cattle and providing supplement for an associated dairying operation. The property also has the significant benefit of around 60ha being under irrigation from a combination of pivot and travelling gun, via a 33litre/per second consented bore. Extensive drainage over the last 10-12 years has further enhanced soil quality and with fertiliser applications in line with an active cropping and re-grassing program, September 2023 soil tests confirm pH and Olsen P levels in optimum ranges. Other improvements include excellent access via all weather tracks from Gladstone Road, very good quality permanent fencing, two hayshed/implement sheds and a tidy two stand woolshed and sheep yards, with cattle yards and load out also accessed off Gladstone Road. Wairarapa irrigated, cropping and finishing blocks of proven quality, in this sought after location and of this scale are very rare - if you are seeking a well-located stand-alone investment opportunity or a high quality add on to your other farming operations then this property will tick all of your boxes! Tender Closes 4pm, Tuesday 28 November 2023.
