Oringi has all the attributes of a far larger farming operation.

Oringi has all the attributes of a far larger farming operation.

A lifestyle property just 7km south of Whanganui has all the facilities of a much larger farming operation with the added attraction of nearby Lake Wiritoa.

Oringi, at 149 Kaitoke Rd, is an exceptionally well-assigned 11.7ha property, nestled in the Wiritoa catchment with great subdivision potential. This property includes, numerous comprehensively-designed large sheds and stock handling facilities complementing a cosy three bedroom home.

"The sheds and facilities on this property are absolutely outstanding and capable of catering for equestrian, calf-rearing, engineering, butchery or storage, the list just goes on and on," Bayleys Real Estate marketing agent Knud Bukholt said.

"If you are a farmer at heart and require a fun property that has all the facilities of a larger operation then Oringi could well be the property for you.

"Approximately 50 per cent of the contour is classified easy tractor country, with the balance made up of medium and hill contours. A point of difference is the added bonus of an on-farm metal pit, great for keeping farm tracks up to scratch."

Unlike many modern lifestyle blocks the home is not an over-statement. It is a comfortable three bedroom ply on batten house, tastefully decorated, with tidy semi-open living areas, complimenting a recently installed Gunzzini kitchen.

It has exceptional northerly views across the Kaitoke rural landscape and beyond, right through to Mt Ruapehu. This small operational farm is situated very close to Whanganui's favourite water skiing venue, Lake Wiritoa.
