From the listing agent
In the words of Lee Cocurullo, Century 21 - Dargaville
This very tempting piece of land has already been surveyed for three Lots and is
looking for a Developer to take to Title. it is beautifully private and flat, and has
the added bonus of being on town water and septic. It is a blank canvas.
In the meantime, or if you are just looking for a lifestyle block, then this could be the
property for you.. A two storey home would give you serene and expansive views
of the river. Mature trees surround the site seeming to magnify the feeling of peace
and quiet. The shed is also a very handy addition.
This substantial utility shed provides additional storage space, featuring mixed construction
including concrete block and clad exterior walls with corrugated iron roofing. The layout
and materials suggest the building may have been added to or enclosed over time, offering
flexible space for storage, equipment and potential building supplies on this residential block.
Purchasers are encouraged to undertake their own due diligence regarding the structure and
its suitability for intended use.
Dargaville is an inviting rural town with every amenity, including a Hospital. Recreational
activities abound and there is less traffic to get there! Come and see for yourself.

Distances are from the parcel centroid to Topo 1:50k features (LINZ); site aspect is approximate, from the 1m LiDAR contours. Road frontage is a proxy — centreline intersection with parcel boundary, not a legal access measure. Confirm setbacks with a district-plan check before purchase.
