Western Bay of Plenty, Katikati 42 Walker Road East

Entry Level or Investment Orchard on Walker Road

This small, productive avocado orchard in the heart of Katikati's foremost avocado growing region is being offered to the market for the first time in 25 years. The 2ha property on Walker Road East on the Tauranga side of Katikati, sits in a Waihi ash soil valley in a road that is renown to be one of the prime horticulture belts in all the Western Bay of Plenty. Location and soil, two things you cannot change when looking for a location for your new orchard. Surrounded by high end orchards you simply cannot go wrong with this one.

Featuring 116 mature Hass on Zutano with 18 young trees, there is the capacity to add in another 30+ trees to increase production even further. The contour is flat with a gentle slope to the east and at an altitude of 30ASML. The 2021/22 harvest forecast for this orchard looks great with the trees already dripping in generously sized fruit ready for harvest in the next 3-5 months.

Support buildings include a two-bay shed with attached lean too. Irrigation and frost protection is in place for the orchard already (county water). There is also a spacious four bedroom, barn style home with high stud internal access garage on the front. The current home would also lend nicely to being utilised as a venue for a home run business.

Do not hesitate to give Durrelle Green (horticulture specialist) from The Green Team at Eves Country a call today for more information. Being sold + GST if any.
