4151B Karamea Highway, Karamea, Buller

In the early days, the first settlers began their attempt to tame the wilds of Karamea here and began clearing the dense bush to established a community that was the beginning of the now vibrant and prosperous region. Today life is much simpler, we have roads, technology, modern machinery and equipment, commercial infrastructure and a population of helpful folk who welcome newcomers to the region. This property is near the site of the first Karamea school and is 25 acres of bush with about 3 acres of cleared land on which to graze animals, grow food or build a home.The property has a sizeable three-bay shed, 30,000-litre rainwater tank, numerous trickling streams, and a healthy chunk of native bush featuring; rimu, manuka, beech, lancewoods, kahikatea, kamahi, plenty of sphagnum moss and, the last time I was there, fresh deer tracks! The property has been roughly divided into 5-acre blocks should a purchaser wish to subdivide and sell the blocks off separately. It has an elevation of about 90 metres, is on the school bus route and rural delivery service and is only five minutes drive from the township of Karamea. A superb property for someone looking to live a sustainable life in a quiet, peaceful rural setting. Please contact Paul Murray for more details and to arrange a tour of this exceptional property.
