Genuine scale and performance - quality dairy

An outstanding opportunity to secure a well-established and productive dairy farming operation, conveniently located just 20 minutes from Hokitika on the West Coast. Comprising 399 ha freehold with approximately 283 ha effective, this well-developed property offers an appealing combination of proven production, quality infrastructure and excellent accommodation, with genuine scope for further development. The farm achieved an impressive 250,072 kgMS from 610 cows in the 2025/26 season, demonstrating its productive capability. Excellent core farm infrastructure with a well-equipped 54-bail rotary dairy shed, complete with automatic cup removers and an in-shed feeding system complemented by a full range of supporting farm buildings and a practical farm layout provide for efficient day-to-day management. Accommodation is a standout feature, with two modern three-bedroom Linea-clad homes, both positioned on elevated building platforms, offering quality living for owners, managers or staff. A significant advantage is the opportunity to secure the neighbouring 220 ha dairy support property, currently operated in conjunction with the dairy platform. Together, these properties offer a combined landholding of approximately 619 ha, providing purchasers with the opportunity to establish a fully self-contained dairy operation, with greater control over young stock grazing, wintering and supplement feed supply to the overall farm management. With proven production, quality infrastructure, excellent accommodation and the flexibility to acquire a substantial adjoining support property, this is an exceptional opportunity to secure a well-established West Coast dairy business with genuine future upside. Both properties are offered to the market by Deadline Sale, closing Friday 18 December 2026 (Unless sold prior).
