73 Turner Street, Kaeo, Far North, Northland

My vendors are calling time on their farming days and moving South! 83.7699 hectares (more or less) located across the river from Kaeo township and only 20 minutes' drive from Kerikeri, this substantial lifestyle block or farm offers a rare combination of privacy, productivity, and natural beauty, all within convenient reach of town. If you like to hunt, this is your playground – duck shooting on a number of private ponds, pig hunting 'out the back' or just saddle the horse and go for a ride, this is the place!

Access to the property is discreet and private, leading to an elevated three-bedroom home with a rumpus room or two generous living areas. Comfort is assured year-round with a large wood burner and heat pump, while the home’s solid construction and spacious design create a warm, substantial feel throughout. Large bedrooms are a standout feature, complemented by two showers and two toilets, ideal for family living or hosting guests.

Set above the farmland and surrounded by beautifully landscaped, established gardens, the home enjoys excellent outlooks while remaining well separated from day to day farming activity, creating a peaceful and private living environment. Approximately 28 hectares (more or less) is effective, productive farmland, subdivided into 13 well fenced paddocks, all with reliable water supply. The land includes fertile flat areas and easy rolling contour, well suited to grazing and practical farm use.

The farm has a strong fertiliser history, with soil test information available, and is proven in its performance, having supported up to 70 rising 2–3 year old beef cattle through spring and autumn, and regularly wintering around 40 rising two-year cattle. Winter feed is well covered, with 30–40 large square bales of silage made on farm.

The balance of the property is made up of elevated native bush, complete with formed tracks and good access, providing shelter, privacy, recreational opportunities, and a stunning natural backdrop to the farm. A beautiful river boundary further enhances the appeal of the property. Tucked away at the base of the native bush is a special family spot, perfect for making lasting memories, with a picnic table conveniently positioned just a short walk to an untouched waterfall and natural waterhole - a magical setting that children will love and a peaceful retreat for warm summer days.

The property is well supported with ample sheds for storage, calf rearing, and general working space. An original walk-through cowshed provides a nostalgic reminder of yesteryear, adding character and history to the farm, while a shipping container with half round lean to offers practical, secure storage for machinery and equipment. The farm benefits from a reliable, clean water supply sourced from the native bush, providing excellent peace of mind for both household use and the farming operation.

Offering scale, privacy, proven productivity, strong infrastructure, and a location conveniently close to Kaeo township, this is an outstanding rural opportunity with genuine lifestyle and farming appeal.
