Welcome to 90 McKinley Road, a breathtaking 23 hectare farm that has been lovingly held by one family for over 50 years. This is more than a property; it's a life well lived, a place where generations have gathered, animals have thrived, and memories have been made under wide open skies.
From the moment you enter the beautiful tree lined driveway, you're captured by the essence of true country living. Rolling green paddocks stretch out on either side, showcasing the very land that has provided for this family for decades. As you draw nearer to the homestead, the drive gently divides, one way to the dwelling, the other to the heart of the farming operation, symbolising the harmony of lifestyle and productivity that this property offers.
Between them lies the showpiece of the farm, a picturesque pond complete with lilies, a willow draping into the water, a quaint jetty and resident ducks and pukeko. It's a setting so tranquil it could be on a postcard, yet here it is, part of everyday life.
To the west, the farm hub is immaculately laid out: haybarn, implement shed, stables, workshop, stockyards and loading ramp - everything the working farmer or lifestyler could need. The land is highly productive, superbly fertilised (envy of the district levels) and divided into 27 well watered paddocks with 25 troughs in place, ideal for grazing, hay and baleage. A stream boundary completes the northern aspect, adding both beauty and practicality.
From the covered verandahs of the expansive 300m²+ homestead, almost every paddock is visible - your land, your stock, your legacy in full view. The home itself has grown alongside the family it nurtured: six bedrooms, two bathrooms, two large living areas, a grand dining room and wood burners at either end creating warmth and character. Designed with practicality in mind, the home is single level, family-friendly and perfectly suited to multi-generational living, with ample covered space for boots, dogs, kids and farm gear.
Properties like this are seldom offered to the market - and almost never after half a century of careful stewardship. Our sellers are retiring, closing the chapter on a cherished era. For the next owner, a rare opportunity awaits to write the next one.
This property will be sold by auction - your future begins here.
For sale by Auction, 1:00 pm Thursday 27 November, Ray White Auction Room, 131 Port Road, Whangarei (unless sold prior)
