309 Opanake Road, Dargaville, Kaipara, Northland

There are lifestyle blocks… and then there’s this. 24.8 hectares of elevated Northland countryside unfolding beneath you in every direction. Rolling pasture, wide skies and those long, cinematic valley views that make every day feel incredible. Set privately at the top of a short driveway, the three-bedroom home + office sits above the land with a sense of calm and permanence. Inside, warm timber finishes, generous windows and an easy, open-plan layout create a retreat that feels authentically rural. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with Blum hardware & Stone benchtops. The bathroom is modern and fresh, the separate toilet carries a quirky coastal charm, and the bedrooms, including two comfortable kids’ rooms and a corner-positioned main, all draw the landscape indoors. The wraparound deck is where the lifestyle truly opens up. A built-in bar invites morning coffees or evenings overlooking the river bends and distant ridgelines, with sheltering trees offering privacy without taking away the outlook. Beyond the home, the property shows its serious capability. The land is divided into 25 well-fenced paddocks, each with troughs. All waterways are fenced, offering environmental assurance and simpler management. Stock flow is supported by cattle yards with a weigh bridge, while multiple implement sheds and a generous workshop provide the practicality needed for real farming. With a 50-head capacity (currently running 21) and contour suited to grazing, lifestyle and future opportunity, this is a block designed to work. Around the home, established gardens, mature shelter plantings and elevated platforms add texture and character, while the wide gravel drive makes access easy for trucks, equipment and daily movements. And though the setting feels wonderfully removed, Dargaville’s township is an easy trip for schools, supermarkets and rural supplies, keeping you connected while home remains your own private lookout across the Kaipara countryside. + GST(if any) For more info, contact Glen.
