The property is located just south of Mangonui Village (with its gift shops, cafes, restaurants and convenience stores) on a popular road for lifestyle properties. The grove and house are situated amongst other homes on an Olive Grove Estate.
This modern house is cleverly designed to maximise the 89 sq m floor-plan. The three double bedrooms are warm and sunny and provide access to the north easterly facing decks. The very pleasant living area, modern designer kitchen and dining space is compact and functional, offering necessary in today's home. The generous decking, complete with spa pool, is another living space in itself, capturing all day sun and breath-taking panoramic views over the Estate, and approximately 850 12 year old olive trees on the grove.
The olive trees and grove are well maintained and has an excellent harvest record. The 5000 gallon concrete water tank is underground and the double bay implement/boat shed is sited away from the house with a separate driveway. The house is connected to its own sewage system.
The clean lines of the house design combined with the neutral colours used internally, and external street appeal, fit well into the strong lines of the olive trees. Both the house and the land are well presented.
The 2015 live harvest will take place in April/May with an expected tonnage of 1 1/2 tons. There are several options for pressing the olives in the Mangonui area. The grove is easily managed by the owners or. alternatively, contract labour is available in the area for tasks such as mowing and weed and fertilizer spraying. A full record of previous harvests and grove maintenance is available for serious purchasers.
The current owners sell their oil direct to the hospitality market. The grove has been producing enough oil over the past three years to cover all costs on the grove.
