Stunning West Coast Natural Paradise

Discover a unique opportunity to own a sprawling 302-hectare property nestled in the breathtaking landscape of New Zealand's West Coast. This remarkable land is rich in natural beauty and history, featuring:

• Tourism Potential: Previously part of a popular tour called "Johnny’s Journey," showcasing ancient Māori caves and the iconic seam of Pancake Rocks ad abundant birdlife and wild deer. With rave reviews before the pandemic, this property holds immense potential for tourism revival.

• Agricultural Use: Currently home to 7 head of cattle, offering a viable farming option amidst stunning scenery. Clearing the river flats would offer significant lush grazing and pure water for your stock.

• Natural Resources: Explore Madman’s Creek, known for its gold prospecting opportunities. Plus, you'll have your very own seam of Pancake Rock on the property. The vendor has spent significant time and effort nurturing and restoring the native species of Kokopu including the Giant Kokopu, the Short Jaw, the Long Jaw and the Banded Kokopu, the Inanga (native Australasian Whitebait), the native West Coast Mudfish, fresh water mussels and the kōura (fresh water crayfish) by providing a number of ponds and providing culverts and fish ladders for them.

• Surrounded by Nature: Bordered by National Park to the south and DOC land to the north and east, this property provides access to New Zealand's pristine wilderness.

This incredible property has even been featured on popular media, including "7 Sharp" and has a dedicated video showcasing the property called “Madman’s Creek” on YouTube showing the history of the property and the plight of the West Coast Timber industry.

Whether you're seeking a tranquil retreat and want to secure the largest privately owned population of mature and maturing Rimu trees in New Zealand in a beautiful valley with a crystal-clear river running through it and mature and regenerated native bush, abundant deer, bird and native wildlife, or an agricultural venture, or an investment in New Zealand's growing tourism market, this property is a rare gem. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of paradise. Probably there is nothing else left that compares with this natural paradise of how New Zealand used to be.
