617 McIvor Road, Rotoma, Whakatane

Manawahe Forest is a high-productivity, mixed-age plantation forest comprising 418 hectares of freehold land, with approximately 328 hectares of mid rotation and younger age class tree crop, located near Kawerau in the Whakatāne District. The forest has a combination of mid-rotation radiata, which has been managed under a structural regime, and younger age class radiata, which are benefiting from establishment into ex-farmland and are showing good growth and form. Approx 116 hectares (NSA) of the mid-rotation radiata is held under a Forestry Right to a third party, with both Grantor and Grantee interests included in the sale. Manawahe has existing registration in the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) under ‘averaging’, providing flexibility for carbon trading and timber revenues. Areas of indigenous podocarp-broadleaf forest and tributary streams are present within the property, adding ongoing biodiversity and recreational benefits. With its scale, established crop, and ongoing ability to earn carbon, Manawahe will appeal to both production forestry investors and carbon-focused buyers seeking an immediate and growing NZU profile.Key Features• Outstanding CNI location• 418 ha freehold land, including 328 ha NSA* • 163 ha* mid rotation Pinus radiata (2011 – 2014) • 164 ha* Pinus radiata (2022) • 195 ha* ETS registered (averaging) • Direct access to public roads, proximity to State Highway 30 • Suitable for future ground-based harvesting operations • 15km* to Sequal Lumber, 18km* to Tasman Log Yard, 82km* to Port of Tauranga *approximatelyA straightforward evaluation and acquisition process is facilitated by a comprehensive electronic Virtual Data Room (VDR).
