419 Rangiora Woodend Road Rangiora, Waimakariri District

Positioned tactfully on the fringe of Rangiora and in the likely pathway of future growth on the way to Ravenswood, Pegasus and beyond, this notable block of approximately 20.2343ha (almost 50 acres) comes to the market for the first time in over 100 years.

While it would make an excellent addition to a local farmer's collection, we suspect the buyer for this will have eyes for the future with several other similar blocks trading in recent times to savvy investors.

That all said, the nuts and bolts look like this:

• 1985 built home made of permanent materials and lying perfectly for the sun
• Spacious 4 bed, 1 bath, huge living layout plus 2 car garage
• Decent 3 bay farm shed - 1 of those being concrete floor and lock up
• Temuka deep silt over clay soils
• Well and consent to pump from water race (with pump)
• Two road frontages
• Picturesque Cam River meandering across the block from west to east
• Zoned Rural Lifestyle under the Council's District Plan

Combine all this with the fact that most pundits, economists and "real estate experts" suggest Canterbury is the place to invest due to its apparent value for money in relation to comparable markets across the country and this is a savvy buyer's property!

History would suggest this is a once in a lifetime opportunity and my experience would suggest this could be the case. Wherever you are and whatever you do, if potential, location and scale are important to you then this demands your attention.
