100E Hodge Road Ruatangata, Whangarei District

Seize a rare opportunity to secure a significant slice of Whangarei's prime lifestyle landscape with this 17.658 hectare property. With no covenants, the possibilities are wide open. Coming to the market as a deceased estate, the instruction from the family is simple - they want it sold yesterday.

The land carries an interesting history. Long known as "Twin Lakes", it originally formed part of a large kiwifruit orchard established in the mid 1980s, the surrounding area shifted to lifestyle living through the 1990s. This particular 7 hectare block of kiwifruit was kept aside because it was regarded as the best of the orchard. The orchard has since been retired, and while the kiwifruit structures remain, there is the option for these to be removed at the vendor's cost before settlement. This gives buyers the freedom to open the land for grazing, recreation or simply enjoy an expansive park-like landscape without any added work.

A standout feature is the lake, supported by a serious irrigation system with pumps, filters and well-established infrastructure. The property also holds Northland Regional Council resource consent for water take to irrigate. Combined with rich volcanic soil, this land offers genuine potential for those pursuing horticulture, intensive grazing or a lifestyle property with exceptional natural features.

Adding to the appeal is a modern high-stud shed of approximately 214 sqm, built around ten years ago. Designed with thermal break construction and already consented for Living 1 where the shower and toilet are located, it includes a mezzanine floor, power, septic system and 2 x 30,000-litre water tanks. With the essential infrastructure in place, it provides a strong platform for those wanting to convert it into a larger dwelling or develop it into a comfortable lifestyle base. The groundwork is done, leaving only the finishing vision to the new owners.

With no covenants in place, the land is a true blank canvas. Whether you imagine a dream home overlooking the lake, a private retreat, an off grid sanctuary, a collection of holiday cabins or an adventure centred property, the possibilities are wide open. This is a property ready for transformation in the hands of its next visionary owner.
