Nestled amidst the idyllic countryside, this sprawling property boasts not one, but two charming houses, offering ample space for comfortable living or the potential for a delightful guest retreat.

For those with a penchant for tinkering or seeking shelter for their machinery, there is a plethora of versatile shed space available, promising a practical solution for storage and workspace needs. Approximately 12 hectares of this good block consist of Ruawai flats, ideal for grazing or potentially developing into agricultural endeavors! Kumaras are the local crop on these flats. Meanwhile, a captivating 8 hectares of mature pine trees grace the landscape, offering not only aesthetic charm but also the potential for forestry income or a peaceful escape within your own property. For those who yearn to relish the tranquility of rural living without compromising on accessibility, Donovan's Block sits gracefully accessing a tarseal road. This means that while you can savour the peaceful countryside, you're just a short drive away from the convenience of nearby towns and amenities. Donovan's Block is an invitation to embrace the pastoral beauty of the land while enjoying the comforts of modern living, a truly unique and enchanting lifestyle opportunity.
