50 Providence Drive, Arahura Valley, Westland

Only 7 km north of the Hokitika shopping area, this outstanding 5,053m2 (approx) lifestyle property is looking for a new owner. Access from One Mile Line Road is excellent along a very wide driveway, where a large clearing (approx 600m2) permits plenty of options for living the lifestyle you want to live off-grid (a power connection may be an option if desired). There are no specific 'Land Covenants' on the property (Westland District Council Rural Zone rules would apply). While not completely isolated, there is still a very real feel of genuine privacy from the few neighbours nearby. Included in the sale is a Dart single axle caravan and associated shelter, and the shipping container. The Arahura Valley has stunning mountain vistas and a long history as an important source of pounamu. Please call or email for further information.
