In October 2105 this beautiful 25 hectare property was advertised for sale on the Internet.

Located to the north of Lake Papaitonga at the end of Arawhata Road, Levin, it was described:

This is your chance to purchase this truly unique piece of Horowhenua's history.

  • Reluctantly for sale by deceased estate this 25ha is adjacent to DOC administered wetlands with stunning views of Lake Papaitonga and Tararua ranges.

  • Located to the west of Levin township, the area is an important connecting point for numerous species of waterfowl and wildlife.

  • Resource Consent has been granted for a four stage conservation estate subdivision involving the creation of 18 rural/residential lifestyle sections bordering the unique DOC owned and administered wildlife reserve of Lake Papaitonga.

  • Lake Papaitonga is a 135ha scenic reserve which contains an intact progression of rare coastal forest to wetland, with pukatea and swamp maire forest, excellent stands of mature kahikatea, while lower wetter areas contain flax, raupo and sedges.

  • With full subdivision plans, costings, and consents now in place, this 25.199ha of productive rural land is ready for the next stage of its development - whether that be completing the subdivision or just keep the secret to yourself.
