1 Dunns Road provides an opportunity to secure a small rural holding for livestock grazing. Subdivided into two paddocks and all in pasture. There are no buildings on the land. We recommend any interested parties determine at their own cost and responsibility the suitability of this land for their intended use if it is something other than the above-mentioned option. Due to the risk and limitations associated with this area, below are some comments from Environment Southland to inform potential purchasers. The property is part of the catchment area known as Lake Hawkins which includes the area of reclaimed estuary upon which the Invercargill Airport is located and its low-lying surrounds where flood alleviation works have been constructed to reduce the likelihood of flooding. However, Rule NH-R1.1 of the District Plan requires a discretionary activity land use consent for any new dwellings in this area even if the minimum floor level is complied with, so it should not be assumed a land use consent will be granted. Although the property is subject to certain restrictions, the vendors have taken account of the situation when setting the asking price.
