Over 90per cent of Aramonga is classified as tractor country capable of supporting a wide variety of rural pursuits.

Not a pin is out of place on a pristine 16-hectare (40-acre) rural lifesyle farm a 25 minute drive east of Whanganui in the Okirae/Whangaehu catchment.

If presentation and quality is a priority then this property has to be on the must-see list.

"Over 90per cent of Aramonga is classified as tractor country, capable of supporting a wide array of rural pursuits," Bayleys Real Estate marketing agent Knud Bukholt said.

"The homestead has no corner left untouched, tastefully painted native timber panelling is a common feature throughout this meticulously presented home. A cosy log fire with cook top and oven, plus a wetback is situated in the kitchen/dining area.

"The positioning of the house and covered verandas provide for indoor/outdoor living, year round.

"It delivers luxury and style without compromising functionality."

Additional facilities include an excellent array of sheds and stock handling facilities with ample ability to cater for deer, sheep or cattle.

Over the past 15 years a high standard of workmanship has been diligently carried out on infrastructure, fencing and re-grassing.

Water is supplied via an artesian bore shared across three properties, ensuring a good stock supply.

This appealing and unique property offers a variety of options for a semi-retired farmer, keen lifestyler looking for a larger block, or shepherd looking for a rural base.

The property is for sale with offers closing at 2pm on Thursday, December 15.
