WHARARIKI WILDERNESS CAMP
THIS PROPERTY IS NOW UNDER CONTRACT
At the base of Old Man Range, between the coastal hamlet of Puponga and Golden Bays iconic Wharariki Beach, this wilderness camp is the perfect spot to spend your weekends and holidays, or set up a more permanent home. Bounding Kahurangi National Park it is currently grazing bees to pay for the rates. There's lots to love about this block, boasting fruit trees, a water tank, bush, some wetland areas and two creeks, really it is quite beautiful.
Harking back to the days when Puponga had a coal mine, this was the place that the pit ponies were kept; and as you can see from the 1940's aerial image, there were originally three miners cottages here too. About half of the land is still in pasture, and all that is left now is a tumble-down hut, a retired Bedford van, and swathes of daffodils and snowdrops.
This is an area renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, Cape Farewell, Old Man Rock, Farewell Spit, and wild west coast beaches are all on your doorstep. Mark my words this is a rare opportunity to secure an easily accessible hideaway, a real chance to become a custodian of a special spot in Golden Bay.
The Tender date has been extended and all Tenders will be presented on 16th September 2021, 2pm. All Viewings are strictly with the Agent. Please register your interest either by email or phone.
