This lifestyle block is quite unique, offering future income from pruned macrocarpa, some of which are almost thirty years old and more recently planted eucalyptus nitens. There are large number of walnuts, eating chestnuts, hazelnuts, an established orchard of apples, black-boy peaches, quince, pears, nectarines, red and black currants, gooseberries, a Medlar tree and fig tree. You could consider establishing truffles under the large stand of English oaks and the hazelnuts. There is so much diversity here with, roses, Japanese maples, cedars, a monkey puzzle and for firewood there are plenty of eucalyptus, cedars and pine trees.

The home is a 90m2, two bedroom, 1950s weatherboard bungalow, with a more modern Colorsteel roof and heating is from a log-burner connected to the cylinder with a wet-back. Being within the new size for a minor dwelling, under the proposed district plan, you could live here while you build a new home, or you could make it your sole dwelling. It would be easy to add value with some paint and imagination. The vendor has provided a building inspection report which can be assigned to the purchaser for a small fee, so you can buy with confidence. A small sleep-out with power and some support buildings can be found near the house and at the back of the property is a fully lockable three bay barn of around 80m2.

Having your own well, supplying water to the house and tanks at the front is a saving in rates and the shed at the back has been set up for rainwater collection. Now that the trees are established, with minimal fencing, you could run stock over most of the property. Because the trees are at different stages they could be selectively logged, giving space for the younger trees to grow.
