Tenuta Vinicola DI Campagna

A magnificent country home plus a guesthouse, grazing land, a large grass arena, an extensive wetland lake full of duck and other wildlife, plus the option of a leased out organic vineyard and wine brand. A rural lodge, a country club, a corporate base, a venue for functions and events, or a lovely family home and a wonderful opportunity for multi-generational living!

The offering incorporates two titles, one includes the homestead and gardens, original farm outbuildings, a substantial and attractive two-bedroom home and a 2.5ha wetland while the second title features a nine-year old organic Sauvignon Blanc vineyard leased out to a French family company using the grapes for a single vineyard wine.

Combining historic grandeur and modern convenience, the 1887 Homestead has been completely renovated, creating a large comfortable home brimming with character. Beautifully crafted native timber joinery is double glazed, extensive insulation has been installed, a diesel burner heats water for radiators, gas ensures a continuous supply of hot water and a bank of discretely located solar panels provides power.

An impressive front door opens to an entrance hall, reception and a 3.8 metre high ceiling. A spacious country kitchen adjoins dining and a living room with French doors opening to the verandah and tree framed views across the garden, a ha-ha and meadow beyond. A separate, more formal sitting room boasts an open fire and French doors to the verandah.

Mature specimen trees flank the one kilometre long driveway and grace the gardens, providing shelter, shade and an attractive backdrop. Rolling lawns run to the field while raised vegetable beds and fruit trees help fill the larder. Outbuildings include an original cob cottage, plenty of garaging and storage, historic stables and an implement shed.

Enjoying an elevated view over fields, the wetland and Richmond Range beyond, the Pavilion is a very comfortable and spacious, modern two-bedroom dwelling. It was originally built as luxurious clubrooms, consented for 100 people. The cricket oval was professionally contoured with special soil brought in for the wicket and pop-up sprinklers throughout.

The lake features over 2.5 hectares of water habitat, home to an array of waterfowl and other birdlife. Planted in 2017, the vineyard includes 13.6 hectares of well-established Sauvignon Blanc, leased out, managed organically and earning a significant handsfree income.

This is an extremely attractive and diverse estate, producing a healthy income with multiple options to earn more. A unique opportunity in an attractive corner of one of New Zealand’s most appealing regions.
