This 17.01 hectares block has land in all these staging. Stage 2 which is outside this block will not be allowed to start until Stage 1 has been developed on 80% to the final stage of its sites (as per information provided by the Waikato District Council), however interested parties will need to due their due diligence to satisfy themselves. This block bounds Wayside Rd (Old SH1 (back in the day)) which is currently a slip road of the current SH1. The property has an access way onto Travers Road The Waikato Expressway that is under construction at this time will include a major on/off ramp system for Te Kauwhata township which will provide convenient access to North & South and the village of Te Kauwhata. Te Kauwhata Village lies in the north of the Waikato District, and is aptly described as the rich horticultural basket of New Zealand's central North Island, and has an estimated population of just about 1200, while servicing many more in the surrounding rural communities of Waikaretu, Onewhero, Maramarua, Meremere, Waerenga, Whangamarino, Whangape, Ohinewai, Rangiriri, Naike and Glen Murray Te Kauwhata village offers a great lifestyle for young and old. The village offers a hint of excitement and vibrancy as the village boasts - and hosts - some of the most exciting events and recreational opportunities in this region. In conjunction with its close neighbour, Rangiriri, Te Kauwhata offers visitors and residents a delightful gateway to the Waikato and Auckland Justifiably proud of its viticultural heritage, stunning scenery, unique flora and local wildlife, numerous talented craftspeople, and strong agricultural and horticultural base, Te Kauwhata provides a lifestyle and destination to suit a wide range of interests. There are the boutique wines of Te Kauwhata. Sadly none are now bottled under Te Kauwhata labels as local wineries have turned to contract winemaking and bottling. Te Kauwhata is world famous - Its claim to fame starts with its location on the edge of the Whangamarino Wetland, declared a world heritage Ramsar area in 1989. Home to dozens of native birds, plant and fish, Whangamarino is the largest wetland in the North Island and one of just six Ramsar sites in New Zealand. Situated on the western edge of Lake Waikare, this small north Waikato town sees itself as being 'in the middle of nowhere and in the centre of everything' and for such a small town its amenities are indeed astonishingly comprehensive. It boasts: Fire Station Golf club Saint John Ambulance; 500-pupil secondary school Y1-6 primary School Three pre-school facilities Five rural feeder schools Public domain housing rugby and squash clubs and the scout den Bowling club Fitness centre and swimming pool RSA hall Community centre Medical centre Modern public library Postal services Foodmarket General store and boutique shops Cafés and a tavern All the agricultural services a rural community needs.
