TWO UNITS: The property consists of two compact blocks, each within i miles of the other, and each having good road frontage on to North Rakaia road, which is sealed. The homestead block comprises 455 2-25 acres and is a Crown Renewable Lease (33 yrs. from 1/7/45, A.R. £5O 7s). The balance comprises 327-1-21 acres and is Crown Lease in Perpetuity A.R. £4O 18s 6d. LAND: This land could be described as a light medium silt loam, with a minimum of stone. It is sweet early sheep country, and grows excellent lucerne. The property is well subdivided by mainly gorse and wire and new posts and wire fences. It is adequately watered by county races. PRESENT COVER: 8 acres sweeds, 42 acres turnips, 36 acres turnips and grass, 81 acres Ryecorn, 100 acres Lucerne, 67 acres New grass, 409 acres older pasture, 30 acres plantations, 10 acres terrace sides.

AUCTIONEER’S NOTE: The offering of this Te Pirita property places before the buying public a class of land which has rapidly come into great demand over latter years. This property Is comfortably carrying 2800 sheep, and fattening some cattle, but its true potential has by no means been reached yet. It carries a full and adequate range of well-maintained buildings including a new woolshed, and sheep yards, and being comprised of two separate but compact blocks. It can if required be readily subdivided into two self-supporting units. We believe that this property must appeal especially to a father and son combination or a partnership, looking for a good property with further potential still in it.
