Motueka Valley, Motueka
Offers Over $529,000
Spanning 39.3 hectares, this well-presented plantation forest offers an outstanding opportunity to secure a productive forestry asset with future lifestyle and investment potential. Conveniently located off Motueka Valley Highway, just five minutes from Tapawera and approximately 50km from both Motueka or Richmond, the property combines easy access with a peaceful rural setting. The forest comprises approximately 23 hectares of second-rotation Radiata pine planted in 2019. The remaining area was harvested this year and will be ready for replanting next winter, allowing the new owner to establish the next rotation. The property is partially fenced, with a creek running along the lower boundary providing a natural water source. The land has been well maintained, with good weed control and an existing network of forestry tracks that can be further developed if required. Access is via a legal right of way, and while there are currently no services connected to the site, the property offers excellent off-grid potential. Abundant firewood and the opportunity to install solar power, it could provide the perfect base for those seeking a more self-sufficient lifestyle. Beyond its forestry value, the land also presents exciting future possibilities. There is potential for an elevated building platform, an off-grid retreat, tiny homes, or other rural development options. Tapawera provides the nearest services, including schooling, shops, a café and service station, giving you everyday convenience while enjoying the privacy and tranquillity of a rural setting. The entire tree crop is included in the sale, and the property is being offered as a going concern, making it a compelling opportunity for forestry investors, land bankers or those looking to create something truly unique.
