Golden Lifestyle Blocks

Enjoy al fresco dining on the sun-drenched patio overlooking gorgeous gardens and your olive grove of beautifully tended trees clothing your own little valley of just over 12 hectares, with three tranquil ponds and a 4 bay shed for the tractors (or boats). The north facing, modern 3 bedroom house, with a study and double garage is designed to take advantage of the views over the grove and the surrounding countryside.Living here ensures you can savour all the charms of this area, as the property is only 15 minutes drive to SH1 at Kaiwaka, 10 minutes to the surf of Mangawhai Heads, or 5 minutes to the culinary delights of the famous cafes at Mangawhai. Last season the grove produced 2,200 litres off three blocks of premium quality extra virgin gold medal winning olive oils. At the 2010 Olive NZ competitions, this grove took out 2 golds and 3 silvers, and one of the oils was judged in the top 6 best in NZ. At the Royal NZ Show in 2009, the first time this grove entered, the oils received silver and a bronze medal. The nine year old trees are not quite at full production, as mature olives can produce many times this amount, but this year looks like it will be a one out of the bag, with very heavy flowering and good spring conditions for fruit set. The property can be purchased seperately or with the two remaining titles together (Lot 9 recently sold) each approximately 4 hectares. The trees have been specifically pruned to allow easy mechanical harvesting, which is done by contractors and the olives are pressed off the property, so this property is easily able to be managed by one full time person. Grab this golden opportunity to take this fledgling business and superb lifestyle to the next level. Make this your new job!
