No 33 SH3 at Westmere is ripe for the picking.

No 33 SH3 at Westmere is ripe for the picking.

Harvest time has arrived for astute investors seeking a lifestyle on highly fertile Whanganui land close to town.

No33 State Highway 3 less than 1km beyond the Caltex service station at Westmere is a 1.6-hectare block set on easy contour terrain.

The farmlet is well-fenced and divided into four paddocks, with soil types from the highly rated Westmere series which can be used for a variety of farming activities including livestock, sheep and cattle, equestrian pursuits, or horticulture and cropping.

"This block is a great example of the old adage, location, location, location in an achievable price bracket for a Westmere property, making it a good opportunity, ripe for the picking," Bayleys marketing agent Knud Bukholt said.

The solid three-bedroom home is tucked away behind a tree-lined garden and includes a veranda, modern double garage and a second garage/workshop.

The exterior is semi-smooth roughcast, with wooden windows and predominantly native timber framing.

Inside is a complementary mix of old and new with the kitchen, dining and lounge being converted to an open plan design in recent years.

An enclosed porch at the back of the house is ideal for coat and boot storage, while the front veranda is a great spot for barbecues and entertainment.

Plenty of room for lifestyle pursuits, the property is a three or four-minute drive from the iconic Windermere Berry Farm and Café and barely a minute from the Pukeko's Nest Café and Bar.

Great location and in an achievable price bracket, this is an attractive option for a family, semi-retired farmers, or professional couple seeking lifestyle living.

Offers close on February 9. Contact marketing agent Knud Bukholt for a viewing.
