An exceptional 161.84-hectare rural forestry holding offering scale, access, and strategic location just 39 kilometres from the Wellington CBD. Presented as a medium-sized, second-rotation forestry investment, this pre-1990 forest comprises a net stocked area of approximately 113 hectares, established across two age classes. Around 33 hectares were replanted in 2015, with a further 80 hectares replanted in 2018, providing a well-balanced forestry profile. The freehold title is owned outright and includes a substantial internal roading network and established skid sites from previous harvests, ensuring practical and efficient access throughout the block. Beyond its forestry credentials, 850F Paekakariki Hill Forest delivers standout lifestyle and land-banking appeal. Elevated ridgelines capture sweeping views over the Pauatahanui Inlet, township, and across to Paremata, Whitby, and Titahi Bay. From the upper reaches, the outlook is both expansive and inspiring, making this property equally attractive as a long-term hold, a private hunting block, or a weekend retreat with potential for a cabin escape from the city. Strategically positioned, the property sits approximately 18 kilometres north of Porirua, around 29 kilometres from Upper Hutt amenities, and 30 kilometres from the beaches of Petone. The nearby Transmission Gully motorway has further enhanced accessibility, strengthening both forestry logistics and long-term development appeal. A rare opportunity to secure scale, views, and versatility in one of the lower North Island’s most tightly held growth locations.
